Advances in fruit breeding in Nepal

Journal of Agriculture and Natural Resources, 2020
Nepal has spent about six decades on fruit development and research in different species. Fruit breeding particularly local and exotic germplasm collection started after 1950s and has gained momentum after the formation of commodity programme in 1972 AD. Major researches in the past were focused on indigenous and exotic genotype collection, evaluation,

Trophic Diversity in Duckweed: Mixotrophy, More Than the Sum of its Extremes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In the context of rising DOC in aquatic environments, mixotrophic duckweed may impact carbon cycling by acting as either a carbon sink, as they absorb CO2 through photosynthesis, or a carbon source, as they release CO2 through respiration of absorbed DOC, which depends on DOC concentration, light availability, temperature, and other environmental ...

A Supramolecular Reversible and Anisotropic Conductive Adhesive for Flexible Electronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Supramolecular network‐based nanocomposites are developed as a stretchable conductive adhesive for flexible electronics. It's as convenient as traditional solders and constructs anisotropic conductive and robust stretchable connections among diverse soft/rigid materials.

Breeding potential of Fragaria vesca f. alba in respect to volatile compounds

, 2009
Fragaria species provide a wide gene pool for breeding in respect to flavour. Although octoploid species are the first choice for breeding due to the equal chromosome set with respect to the cultivars of Fragaria × ananassa, species of a lower ploidy ...

Thermally Processable, Transparent, Mechanically Tunable and Robust Bioplastics From Wastepaper

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Unlike conventional inefficient or low‐value wastepaper recycling, a directional transformation strategy is employed to convert whole wastepaper into intact bioplastics with tunable mechanical properties in our work. These bioplastics can be processed into flexible bags or rigid containers and exhibit high transparency, water resistance, repairability,

A self-compatible pear mutant derived from γ-irradiated pollen carries an 11-Mb duplication in chromosome 17

Frontiers in Plant Science
Self-compatibility is a highly desirable trait for pear breeding programs. Our breeding program previously developed a novel self-compatible pollen-part Japanese pear mutant (Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai), ‘415-1’, by using γ-irradiated pollen.

First steps toward the development of molecular markers associated with Sharka resistance in European plum (Prunus domestica L.) – a project presentation

Sharka disease is caused by the plum pox virus (PPV) and is one of the most important diseases in stone fruit production. This disease was first described in Eastern Europe in 1917, has since spread, and can now be observed throughout Europe as well as ...

Synergistic Effect of Gradient Conductivity and Gradient Microstructures Enabled Ultrasensitive and Ultrabroad Linear Flexible Tactile Sensors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A design of double gradient effect is proposed to resolve the contradictory optimization on sensitivity and linearity of piezoresistive tactile sensors. The ultrawide linearity is realized by the sequential trigger of pressure‐induced gradient conductivity‐enabled linear current owing to the gradient microstructures.

Breeding, genetics, and genomics of fruit trees

Breeding Science, 2016
Because most regions of Japan are in the temperate climate zone, many deciduous and evergreen fruit crops are cultivated in Japan. In addition to fruit cultivation in the temperate zone, some southern areas, such as the Ryukyu Islands that stretch from Kyushu to Taiwan, are at the northern limits for tropical fruit production without the need of ...
