Identification of Promising Eggplant Genotypes for Root-knot Nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) Resistance

HortScience
Parasitic Meloidogyne incognita root-knot nematodes (RKNs) represent one of the most serious eggplant (Solanum melongena) biotic stress problems. We evaluated 47 eggplant genotypes, including three cultivated eggplant, 13 wild accessions, and 31 eggplant

Performance of eggplant grafted on tomato and eggplant rootstocks

European Journal of Horticultural Science, 2005
Summary Yield and fruit characteristics of eggplant, cv. 'Delica' (flask type fruit), were studied in relation to grafting and K rate. The vegetative growth and yield of plants grafted on to tomato rootstocks cv. '515' and '516' (Spyrou A.E.B.E., Athens) was superior to that of the non-grafted control, whereas plants grafted on to eggplant ...

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

Plant 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.

Variation in the impact of stem scar and cuticle on water loss in highbush blueberry fruit argue for the use of water permeance as a selection criterion in breeding [PDF]

, 2017
The role of fruit scar on water loss from fresh harvested, fully blue highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) fruit was studied on three germplasm lines from each of three half-sib families at University of Talca, Chile. The stem scar of half of the

Engineered Production of Hydroxycinnamoyl Tyramine Conjugates Limits the Growth of the Pathogen Pseudomonas syringae in Arabidopsis

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydroxycinnamoyl tyramine conjugates are phenolamides produced by plants in response to pathogen attack and biotic stresses. Their proposed mechanisms of action include cytotoxicity towards pathogens, cell wall reinforcement to restrict pathogen proliferation, and signaling activity to trigger general stress responses.

Effects of Meloidogyne incognita on agronomic parameters and structural changes in eggplant (Solanum gilo Raddi) roots treated with Purpureocillium lilacinum

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Meloidogyne incognita impairs eggplant growth through gall formation with changes in root cell wall components and vascular tissue disruption, while the biocontrol agent Purpureocillium lilacinum mitigates these effects by reducing nematode infection. Abstract Meloidogyne spp. induce structural changes during the development of root‐knot galls, leading
