Orphan Crops and their Wild Relatives in the Genomic Era
Molecular Plant, 2021More than half of the calories consumed by humans are provided by three major cereal crops (rice, maize, and wheat). Orphan crops are usually well adapted to low-input agricultural conditions, and they not only play vital roles in local areas but can also contribute to food and nutritional needs worldwide.

Harnessing Crop Wild Relatives for Crop Improvement
LS: International Journal of Life Sciences, 2017Crop wild relatives (CWRs) are the potential source of novel traits and genetic variation in food crops with narrow genetic base. CWRs include immediate progenitor of crop species and other species of plants which are closer to them in near evolutionary history.

Crop wild relatives in the Pampas
Botanical Journal of the Linnean SocietyAbstract The average global temperature is expected to rise in the coming years, demanding more resilient crops. Crop wild relatives (CWR) are critical for assisting in the development of resistant cultivars to various biological and abiotic stresses, as well as increasing productivity and providing environmental, economic, and social

Introgression Libraries with Wild Relatives of Crops
2013The narrowgenetic base of many crops raises concerns about the prospects for continued genetic gains necessary to meeting the increasing demand for agricultural output in an age of climate changes. The development and application of the introgression line (IL) breeding approach was proposed to more efficiently harness the genetic potential stored in ...

Importance of Crop Wild Relatives
2019In a plant evolutionary time scale, running to millions of years, with a very constrained genetic bottleneck in the selection of rare mutations for domestication traits (reduced shattering, reduced seed dormancy, and increased seed size) and natural selection under a generally mild environment without frequent extremes, crop diversification during the ...

Towards a definition of a crop wild relative
Biodiversity and Conservation, 2006Crop wild relatives are an important socio-economic resource that is currently being eroded or even extinguished through careless human activities. If the Conference of the Parties (COP) to the CBD 2010 Biodiversity Target of achieving a significant reduction in the current rate of loss is to be achieved, we must first define what crop wild relatives ...

Conservation of Crop Wild Relatives in the USA
2018Crop wild relatives (CWR) are found throughout the USA, with a high concentration in the eastern part of the country. These wild plants include the ancestors of crops domesticated within the borders of the country, such as sunflower, pecan, blueberry, cranberry, and squash, as well as the relatives of crops domesticated elsewhere. This chapter presents
