Tomato: a crop species amenable to improvement by cellular and molecular methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Tomato is a crop plant with a relatively small DNA content per haploid genome and a well developed genetics. Plant regeneration from explants and protoplasts is feasable which led to the development of efficient transformation procedures.

Hechtia mixtecana sp. nov. (Hechtioideae; Bromeliaceae), from Oaxaca, Mexico

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Botanical explorations carried out in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico, led to the discovery of a new Bromeliaceae: Hechtia mixtecana,which is here described and illustrated. The new taxon is compared with the morphologically similar Hechtia fragilis, Hechtia lyman‐smithii, and Hechtia minuta.

Anther culture properties of oat x wild red oat progenies and a search for RAPD markers associated with anther culture ability

open access: yesAgricultural and Food Science, 2008
A study was carried out to improve anther culture ability of the non-responsive cultivated oat, Avena sativa L. cv. Puhti by introgressing favourable alleles from the responsive wild red oat, Avena sterilis L. acc. CAV 2648.

Inquiring for a chance to obtain strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) dihaploids

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The possibility of dihaploid development from tetrahaploid anthers in strawberry has been tested in culture. From the total number of 4635 anthers taken from 57 tetrahaploid plants (secondary cycle of anther culture) and 4042 anthers from 7 octoploid ...

Microspore embryogenesis in barley: anther pre-treatment stimulates plant defence gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes
Microspore embryogenesis (ME) is a process in which the gametophytic pollen programme of the microspore is reorientated towards a new embryo sporophytic programme.

Androgenesis induction in microspore culture of sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Isolated microspore culture experiments were carried out in sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) F1 hybrid genotypes. In the first experiment, four culture media (W14, B5, MS and NLN) were compared to test their effectiveness in inducing the formation ...

Assessing the evolutionary distinctiveness of a highly threatened plant group: The urgency to preserve a unique lineage of evolution in Brazil

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Brazil's diverse flora is under several threats, with many unique lineages facing extinction, particularly in biodiverse regions like the Cerrado and campo rupestre. This study sheds light on the conservation needs of Cambessedesia (Melastomataceae), an endemic genus with 95% of its species endangered, using an approach to rank and prioritise species ...

The Cinderella tree, Quillaja saponaria – A soap story

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Our current understanding of plants has been shaped by the entwining of different cultures. The Chilean soapbark tree, traditionally valued as a source of natural soap, was shown by serendipitous research in France in the 1900s to produce compounds that can boost the immune response to vaccines.

Kultur Antera untuk Mendapatkan Galur Padi Toleran Salinitas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Haploid breeding through anther culture allows shortening of the breeding cycle and production of homozygous lines from a segregating population in the immediate generation. This technique has been used for crop improvement especially in rice.

A dominant repressor version of the tomatoSl-ERF.B3gene confers ethylene hypersensitivity via feedback regulation of ethylene signaling and response components [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Ethylene Response Factors (ERFs) are downstream components of the ethylene signal transduction pathway, although their role in ethylene-dependent developmental processes remains poorly understood. As the ethylene-inducible tomato Sl-ERF.B3 has been shown
