Mobilization, conservation and study of cultivated and wild potato genetic resources
Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2017 Nowadays, the world’s largest Potato Genebanks, including VIR Potato Genebank, hold about 98 thousand accessions of potato and its wild relatives. This gene pool, which has been accumulated for almost a century, represents a huge genetic diversity of ...

Scientific Reports, 2014 The need for higher yielding and better-adapted crop plants for feeding the world's rapidly growing population has raised the question of how to systematically utilize large genebank collections with their wide range of largely untouched genetic ...

Genomics Insights Into High‐Latitude Adaptation of Tibetan Macaques
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 14, 9 March 2026.Tibetan macaques exhibit unique adaptations to cold, high‐latitude environments, including shortened tails and enhanced fat storage. Genomic analyses reveal a species‐specific TBX6 mutation linked to tail reduction and selection on lipid metabolism genes.

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Premise Seed longevity is critical for successful genebanking, but it is hard to detect or predict. We examined survival of genebanked seeds from species native to the United States to estimate longevity. We tested whether RNA integrity (RIN) can be used to detect aging and predict mortality. Methods Dry seeds from >100 species were stored for

Nature Communications, 2020 Genebanks hold comprehensive collections of wild species, wild relatives, and landraces that are useful for genetic improvement. Here, the authors report the genotype of nearly 80,000 wheat accessions using DArTseq technology to show the less explored ...

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Background Imeglimin (IME) is a novel oral anti‐diabetic agent with a similar chemical structure to metformin, which has shown broad‐spectrum anti‐tumor activity. However, the activity of imeglimin on tumor cells remains unclear. This study investigated the effects of IME on multiple myeloma (MM) cells and explored the underlying mechanisms ...

In vitro collection of berry and fruit crops and their wild relatives at VIR
Биотехнология и селекция растений, 2019 Background. The problem of ex situ conservation of plant genetic resources (PGR) is particularly relevant due to the decreasing of their genetic diversity. Accessions of vegetatively propagated crops are usually preserved in field genebanks.

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.Abstract Rice blast remains a major disease, causing severe yield losses in rice‐producing regions and posing a threat to global food security. Understanding genetic variation within germplasms is crucial for identifying locally adapted genotypes with beneficial alleles for improving resistance to this disease.
