Variability in the Global Proso Millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) Germplasm Collection Conserved at the ICRISAT Genebank

open access: yesAgriculture, 2019
Proso millet (Panicum miliaceum L.), also known as common millet or broomcorn millet, is an important ancient crop mostly grown for food, feed, and fodder purposes largely in China, Russia, India, and the USA. It is an under-researched and under-utilized

Underutilised crops in Europe: An interdisciplinary approach towards sustainable practices

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract In the context of a rapidly growing global population and significant climatic and environmental change, there is an urgent need to produce nutritious food in a sustainable manner. Some crops are underutilised in Europe, despite their suitability to local environments, viability for sustainable production and potential to improve diets.

GBIS: the information system of the German Genebank [PDF]

open access: yesDatabase, 2015
The German Federal ex situ Genebank of Agricultural and Horticultural Crop Species is the largest collection of its kind in the countries of the European Union and amongst the 10 largest collections worldwide. Beside its enormous scientific value as a safeguard of plant biodiversity, the plant genetic resources maintained are also of high importance ...

Modulation of KATP channels by diazoxide preserves mitochondrial function and barrier integrity under staurosporine‐induced epithelial stress

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Intestinal barrier dysfunction caused by mitochondrial stress, oxidative damage and apoptosis, are hallmarks of dysbiosis‐associated gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. Staurosporine causes downstream features of dysbiosis‐induced epithelial damage.

Pangenome Analysis Reveals Structural Variations Associated With Citric Acid Accumulation in Prunus mume

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pangenome can reveal a large number of variations, providing a more comprehensive view of the genetic diversity of species that a single reference genome cannot surpass. Here, we assembled the haplotype telomere‐to‐telomere genome and 10 chromosome‐level genomes, integrated with two previously reported genomes, and constructed a graph ...

Genebank Peer Reviews: A powerful tool to improve genebank quality and promote collaboration

open access: yesGenetic Resources
The conservation of plant genetic resources (PGR) is critical to ensuring global food security and agricultural sustainability. Genebanks play a vital role in ex situ conservation, complementing in situ strategies by preserving crop diversity (incl. their wild relatives) and providing access to biological materials for research, breeding and farming ...

Assessing the RNA integrity in dry seeds collected from diverse endangered species native to the USA

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionDry seeds do not show obvious signs of life and so testing for viability, health and life expectancy can be challenging. Usually testing seed quality involves adding water and measuring metabolic capacity or growth potential by vital staining
