Cryopreservation of plant germplasm in Argentina [PDF]
, 2007 This review describes the current status of development of methods for cryopreservation (at -196ºC) of plants germplasm in Argentina. Arachis pintoi, a forage legume, has been maintained as seeds using vitrification method. Additionally, apical meristems,

Genetic architecture of kernel composition in global sorghum germplasm
BMC Genomics, 2017 Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is an important cereal crop for dryland areas in the United States and for small-holder farmers in Africa. Natural variation of sorghum grain composition (protein, fat, and starch) between accessions can be used for ...

Thinking Outside of the Cereal Box: Breeding Underutilized (Pseudo)Cereals for Improved Human Nutrition. [PDF]
, 2019 Cereal grains have historically played a critical role in sustaining the caloric needs of the human population. The major cereal crops, wheat, rice, and maize, are widely cultivated and have been subjected to biofortification to enhance the vitamin and ...

Plant Germplasm Information Management System: Germplasm Resources Information Network
HortScience, 1988 Abstract A critically important aspect of the management of genetic resources is concurrent management of information pertinent to the preserved seeds or plant materials. An effective information system should: a) aid curators of collections by providing current information on inventories, exchange activities, etc.; b) perm it germplasm users to have ...

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.In this study, we investigated the protective effects of different membrane‐separated ripe Pu‐erh tea on alcohol‐induced liver injury. The result indicated that ripe Pu‐erh tea separated by a 50 nm ceramic membrane (molecular weight < 300 kDa) has the best effect on preventing ALD.

International exchange of genetic resources, the role of information and implications for ownership: the case of the U.S. National Plant Germplasm System [PDF]
"Changing perceptions of resource ownership have altered international exchange of genetic resources. After summarizing the role of genebanks and issues related to property regimes, this paper presents an empirical study of one of the largest national ...

Grassland Research, EarlyView.Cattle grazing meadow fescue pasture in remnant oak savanna near Fennimore, Wisconsin. Abstract Background Meadow fescue (Schedonorus pratensis (Huds.) P. Beauv.) is highly adapted to managed rotational grazing systems with sufficient rest periods to promote regrowth and sward longevity.
