A tuber mustard AP2/ERF transcription factor gene, BjABR1, functioning in abscisic acid and abiotic stress responses, and evolutionary trajectory of the ABR1 homologous genes in Brassica species [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
The AP2/ERF superfamily of transcription factors is one of the largest transcription factor families in plants and plays an important role in plant development processes and stress responses. In this study, BjABR1, an AP2/ERF superfamily gene, from tuber

Irrigation water strategies to intensify vegetable production on smallholder farms in Guyana

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
Abstract As part of its development program, Guyana is diversifying and expanding its agricultural sector to increase the production of higher‐value vegetable crops. Apart from ensuring food security, this also reduces the country's food import bill. Abandoned sugarcane lands are targeted for the intensification and expansion of vegetable production ...

MIK2 is a candidate gene of the S-locus for sporophytic self-incompatibility (SSI) in chicory (Cichorium intybus, Asteraceae) [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The Cichorium genus offers a unique opportunity to study the sporophytic self incompatibility (SSI) system, being composed of species characterized by highly efficient SI (C. intybus) and complete self compatibility (C. endivia). The chicory genome was used to map 7 previously identified SSI locus-associated markers.

Orphan crops of archaeology‐based crop history research

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Agrobiodiversity is central to sustainable farming worldwide. Cultivation, conservation and reintroduction of diverse plant species, including ‘forgotten’ and ‘underutilized’ crops, contribute to global agrobiodiversity, living ecosystems and sustainable food production.

Selection for domestication favored taxa characterized by fast growth and tolerance of high intraspecific density

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
To understand why certain plants have been domesticated into crops, we need to recognize that the environmental conditions plants experience in wild populations are totally different from those of agricultural fields. In this study, we investigated whether the characteristics that promote growth and survival in these different environments may have ...

Field efficacy of a bioherbicide mimic (DiS‐NH2) in a nanoparticle formulation for weed control in durum wheat

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
A new polymeric nanoparticle formulation containing aminophenoxazinone DiS‐NH2 (2,2′‐disulfanediyldianiline) is proposed as a post‐emergence and contact bioherbicide for weed management in durum wheat. Abstract BACKGROUND Weed‐resistance phenomena have increased dramatically in recent years. Bioherbicides can offer a sustainable alternative to chemical
