Age of innovation: Progress in systematic botany in the 20th century
Abstract Systematic botany can be regarded as the oldest of the botanical sciences, having originated with the ancient Greeks. Although much progress has been achieved in systematic botany over nearly two millennia, in the 20th century, many significant innovations took place in revealing processes of evolution, principles and methods of classification,

Distribution, habitat profile and genetic variability of Namibian succulent Lithops ruschiorum
Background: The species-rich flora of southern Africa comprises a high number of endemics, including succulents such as the flowering stones in the genus Lithops, but conservation status for these species is not well underpinned because detailed field ...

An AFLP-based genome-wide mapping strategy
To efficiently determine the chromosomal location of phenotypic mutants, we designed a genome-wide mapping strategy that can be used in any crop for which a dense AFLP (Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism) map is available or can be made. The AFLP technique is particularly suitable to initiate map-based cloning projects because it detects many ...

Identification of quantitative trait loci controlling root and shoot traits associated with drought tolerance in a lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) recombinant inbred line population [PDF]
Drought is one of the major abiotic stresses limiting lentil productivity in rainfed production systems. Specific rooting patterns can be associated with drought avoidance mechanisms that can be used in lentil breeding programs.
