Phylogeny and Biogeography of Morus (Moraceae)

Agronomy, 2023
The mulberry genus, Morus L. (Moraceae), has long been taxonomically difficult, and its species circumscription has only been defined recently. This genus comprises ca.

Pathways to de novo domestication of crop wild relatives [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2021
Growing knowledge about crop domestication, combined with increasingly powerful gene-editing toolkits, sets the stage for the continual domestication of crop wild relatives and other lesser-known plant species.

Biogeographic patterns and environmental drivers of species richness in the globally distributed Millettioid/Phaseoloid clade (Fabaceae, subfamily Papilionoideae)

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
IntroductionThe Millettioid/Phaseoloid (MP) clade of Fabaceae is globally distributed, economically important, and highly diverse, making it an attractive system for studying biogeographic and macroecological patterns at a global scale.

A Crop Wild Relative Inventory for Mexico [PDF]

Crop Science, 2018
Crop wild relatives (CWR) are valuable sources of variation for the genetic improvement of crops. Mexico is an important center of diversity of crops and CWR. However, this diversity is threatened by climate change, habitat degradation, increasing human population, among other factors.

Global conservation priorities for crop wild relatives

Nature Plants, 2016
The wild relatives of domesticated crops possess genetic diversity useful for developing more productive, nutritious and resilient crop varieties. However, their conservation status and availability for utilization are a concern, and have not been quantified globally.

CROP WILD RELATIVES СONSERVATION IN THE CHECHEN REPUBLIC

PROCEEDINGS ON APPLIED BOTANY, GENETICS AND BREEDING, 2018
Background. Plant genetic resources (PGR) conservation is an indispensable condition for ensuring the country's economic and environmental security. The most important component of the PGR status assessment is the study of crop wild relatives in a particular region.

Importance of agriculture for crop wild relatives conservation in Switzerland

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Abstract Crop Wild Relatives are a subset of the global plant diversity that is often neglected, as not the primary focus for conservationists or plant breeders. However, a relatively large portion of the wild flora, up to 60% in Switzerland for example, do share genetic relationships with cultivated species and therefore can be ...

A near-complete genome assembly of Fragaria iinumae

BMC Genomics
Fragaria iinumae, a diploid progenitor species of octoploid strawberries, likely occupies a basal position within the genus Fragaria. In this study, we report a near-complete genome assembly of F.
