Plants, 2021 Europe is very active in terms of conserving plant genetic resources, with hundreds of genebanks and thousands of dedicated people involved. However, the resulting infrastructure is, along with being very expensive, far from efficient and not very ...

JSFA reports, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 78-90, March 2025.Abstract Background Many reports from the UK government and other organisations highlight a need for a plant aware workforce, and some enumerate specific areas of plant science where there is a skills shortage. We have undertaken a systematic analysis of the content of degree programmes that advertise as teaching plant biology to determine if the UK ...

Status and future of seed conservation of threatened plants in the post‐2020 era
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Ambitious targets have been set to backup seeds of threatened plants by the global strategy for plant conservation (GSPC), but it is unclear in how far these targets have been met and how seed collection should be organized to meet future challenges. Here, we provide an overview of the status of 44 countries in achieving seed conservation targets.

Underutilised crops in Europe: An interdisciplinary approach towards sustainable practices
Archaeometry, 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]
Database, 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 ...

Rethinking the approach to viability monitoring in seed genebanks
Conservation Physiology, 2017 A key operation of most seed genebanks is the regular monitoring of the viability of accessions through a germination test. In this article, we suggest ways in which the viability monitoring could be changed to save seeds and resources and reduce error ...

British 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.

Plant 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 ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fusarium wilt of banana (FWB), caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), threatens global banana production. Lignin reinforces cell walls against pathogens and lodging, yet its regulatory mechanisms in banana remain elusive. Through genome‐wide association study (GWAS) of lignin content across 184 banana accessions, we identified ...
