Identification of New Resistance Sources From Diploid Wild Strawberry Against Powdery Mildew Pathogen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Powdery mildew pathogen causes diseases in berries and resistance breeding is hampered by the lack of sufficient sources. While control of fungal pathogens relies on chemical fungicides.

The potential of seedbank digital information in plant conservation

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Seedbanks are vital for biodiversity conservation, but their potential remains underutilised due to a limited understanding of the intraspecific genetic diversity they hold. By leveraging digitised data associated with seedbank collections, such as sampling locations, number of maternal plants and seed traits, we can attempt the estimation of genetic ...

Plant community response to regional sources of dominant grasses in grasslands restored across a longitudinal gradient

open access: yesEcosphere, 2016
Restorations in the light of climate change will need to take into account whether or not sources of the dominant plants are adapted to the future conditions at a site.

Recombination does not hinder formation or detection of ecological species of Synechococcus inhabiting a hot spring cyanobacterial mat

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Recent studies of bacterial speciation have claimed to support the biological species concept—that reduced recombination is required for bacterial populations to diverge into species.

Fivefold higher abundance of ticks (Acari: Ixodida) on the European roe deer (Capreolus capreolus L.) forest than field ecotypes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The European roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) is the most common deer species in Europe. The species can be a reservoir of some tick-borne diseases but it is primarily recognized for its contribution as an amplifier host.

Range‐wide sampling reveals cryptic lineages but largely conserved mycorrhizal associations in the Japanese fairy lantern Thismia kobensis

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The jewel‐like flowers of Thismia are as rare as they are beautiful, often recorded from only a single site per species. Access to 15 populations of T. kobensis has enabled an uncommon, range‐wide assessment of morphology, genetics, and fungal partners. Our analyses showed that T.

Environment sensing in spring-dispersed seeds of a winter annual Arabidopsis influences the regulation of dormancy to align germination potential with seasonal changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Seed dormancy cycling plays a crucial role in the lifecycle timing of many plants. Little is known of how the seeds respond to the soil seed bank environment following dispersal in spring into the short-term seed bank before seedling emergence in autumn.
