Conservation Implications for the Iberian Narrow Endemic <i>Androsace cantabrica</i> (Primulaceae) Using Population Genomics With Target Capture Sequence Data. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study uses Angiosperms353 target capture sequencing to resolve the taxonomic status and conservation needs of Androsace cantabrica, a rare alpine plant endemic to northern Spain. Phylogenomic analyses confirm its distinctiveness from related species, and population genomic data reveal shallow genetic structure and moderate diversity, supporting ...

Tracing Back the History of Pepper (Capsicum annuum) in the Iberian Peninsula from a Phenomics Point of View [PDF]

Plants, 2022
The Iberian Peninsula was the place where pepper (Capsicum annuum) entered Europe and dispersed to other continents but was also an important secondary center for its diversification.

Classification Importance of Seed Morphology and Insights on Large-Scale Climate-Driven Strophiole Size Changes in the Iberian Endemic Chasmophytic Genus Petrocoptis (Caryophyllaceae) [PDF]

Plants
Recruitment poses significant challenges for narrow endemic plant species inhabiting extreme environments like vertical cliffs. Investigating seed traits in these plants is crucial for understanding the adaptive properties of chasmophytes.

Genome-Wide Diversity in Lowland and Highland Maize Landraces From Southern South America: Population Genetics Insights to Assist Conservation. [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays ssp. mays L.) landraces are traditional American crops with high genetic variability that conform a source of original alleles for conventional maize breeding. Northern Argentina, one the southernmost regions of traditional maize cultivation in the Americas, harbours around 57 races traditionally grown in two regions with ...

Species distribution modeling and conservation assessment of the northwestern Argentinian highland papayas under global change scenarios

Ecología Austral, 2022
Wild species related to crops are a source of genes for improving crop tolerance of biotic and abiotic stresses. Vasconcellea quercifolia and V. glandulosa are wild relatives of papaya (Carica papaya).

The role of geography, ecology, and hybridization in the evolutionary history of Canary Island Descurainia

American Journal of Botany, Volume 110, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Premise Oceanic islands offer the opportunity to understand evolutionary processes underlying rapid diversification. Along with geographic isolation and ecological shifts, a growing body of genomic evidence has suggested that hybridization can play an important role in island evolution.

Variables that intervene in the weight of rotifer biomass and fatty acids

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 741-753, June 2022., 2022
Abstract The biomass of rotifers is used as live food in aquaculture; their quality is determined by the content of the main polyunsaturated fatty acids and the weight it acquires over time. The objective of this work was to evaluate the variables involved in this process to achieve higher quality.

The widely distributed, edible seaweeds in Peru, Chondracanthus chamissoi and Chondracanthus chamissoi f. glomeratus (Gigartinaceae, Rhodophyta), are morphologically diverse but not phylogenetically distinct

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 1290-1311, December 2021., 2021
Abstract Chondracanthus chamissoi is part of the diet of coastal people from Peru and is exported dehydrated to Asian countries for direct consumption. Although it is considered endemic to Peru and Chile, its range has extended to distant regions, such as Korea, Japan, and France. Using morphological and molecular approaches, we examined specimens from
