Effect and eco-friendly management of brinjal shoot and fruit borer (Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee) on brinjal

open access: yesINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PLANT PROTECTION, 2014
Brinjal shoot and fruit borer, Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee is a very serious insect of brinjal. During the present investigation, six insecticides were evaluated under field conditions. Regarding the efficacy of insecticides, Imidacloprid 17.8 SL @ 250 g a.i./ha proved most effective which was closely followed by Indoxacarb 14.5 SC @ 50 g a.i./ha and

De novo stolon organogenesis in potato leaf callus elicited by Agrobacterium tumefaciens stimulus

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Agrobacterium tumefaciens triggers stolon regeneration from potato leaf callus independent of T‐DNA insertion, suggesting a strategy to reprogram callus identity and expand the potential of tissue regeneration. ABSTRACT Plant cells can undergo cellular reprogramming, enabling pluripotent callus formation from excised leaves.

Diets, Fruit and Vegetable Intake and Nutritional Status in Tanzania: Scoping Review

open access: yesMaternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
This scoping review summarizes evidence on diets, fruit and vegetable (F&V) intake, and nutritional status in Tanzania to identify information gaps and to help with the design and targeting of potential interventions to improve F&V intake. While the majority of existing literature on diets and F&V intake was heterogeneous, evidence suggests that among ...

Evolution of crop phenotypic spaces through domestication

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary We used domestication as an in vivo replicated experiment to investigate how divergent selection has shaped the evolution of multivariate phenotypic spaces. We measured 11–57 qualitative and quantitative traits in 13 species, either unique or shared between species, and established a framework for cross‐species comparisons. Our results revealed

Heterosis studies for fruit characters in Brinjal (Solanum melongena L.)

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2016
A study was conducted in brinjal to estimate the magnitude of heterosis for eight fruit characters. Significant heterosis exhibited by different crosses for different characters over the years viz., fruit length (PRxWB-1, PB- 66xPB-67 & PB-66xWB-1 ...

Understanding Participants' and Health Professionals' Perceptions and Experiences of Time‐Restricted Eating: A Systematic Review of Qualitative Evidence

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Time‐restricted eating (TRE) limits food intake to a specific daily window and has gained popularity, showing modest benefits for cardiometabolic health. However, perspectives and experiences from adults and healthcare professionals about TRE remain underexplored but are vital for successful implementation in research and clinical ...

Haploid Mutation Mapping Identifies a Homoeologous Non‐Reciprocal Translocation Linked to Reduced Fibre and Enhanced Protein in Brassica napus

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A key challenge for the genetic improvement of canola (Brassica napus), one of the world's most important oilseeds, is the limited natural variation for commercially important traits. The creation of new variation is hindered by the lack of functional knowledge about genes controlling these traits.

A Vegetable Breeding Consortium in Asia Provides Smallholder Farmers With Resilient Varieties

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adapting vegetables to the impacts of climate change is a complex task that demands significant long‐term investment in breeding research. Heat stress and drought tolerance are intricate traits with multiple components that respond differently in varying environments.
