Genetic Diversity and Relationships Among Tunisian Wild and Cultivated Rosa L. Species

Plants
Assessing and determining genetic diversity in rose species is a crucial step for conservation efforts, the establishment of a core collection, and the development of new varieties. This study represents the first investigation of genetic diversity among

A global strategy for the conservation and use of cacao genetic resources, as the Foundation for a sustainable cocoa economy [PDF]

, 2012
The future of the world cocoa economy depends on the availability of genetic diversity and the sustainable use of this broad genetic base to breed improved varieties. Decreasing cacao genetic diversity (in situ, on-farm and conserved in collections) is a

Cryopreservation and Germplasm Storage

, 1994
Cryopreservation is defined as the viable freezing of biological material and their subsequent storage at ultra-low temperatures, preferably at that of liquid nitrogen. The development of cryopreservation strategy for plant cells and organs has followed the advances made with mammalian systems, albeit several decades later.

Insect‐resistant soybean genotypes accumulate rutin and its O‐methylated derivative narcissin, a more potent flavonol targeting Anticarsia gemmatalis digestive and detoxification enzymes and reducing larval survival

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Soybean underpins Brazil's agricultural, yet its sustainability is threatened by lepidopteran pests such as Anticarsia gemmatalis. Although insect‐resistant cultivars have long been associated with the constitutive accumulation of quercetin‐derived flavonols, the biochemical mechanisms underlying this resistance remain poorly ...

Gene expression and metabolic variability in fungus‐resistant PIWI (‘Pilzwiderstandsfähig’) grape cultivars

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Fungus‐resistant PIWI (Pilzwiderstandsfähig) grape cultivars are promising for reducing pesticide inputs in viticulture, but their enological potential is still poorly characterized. We performed a pilot, single‐vintage study integrating berry gene expression and phenolic composition in five Italian red PIWI cultivars (Cabernet ...

Is quinoa‐farming sustainable in marginal environments? Social, economical and environmental aspects

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean grain crop introduced as a novel crop to many parts of the world in recent years. Recognized for nutritious seeds and high abiotic stress tolerance, it has been promoted as an element of climate‐resilient agriculture, particularly in marginal environments.

Large‐scale phenotyping of physical and antioxidant traits in peach and apricot cultivars

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Peach and apricot are valued for their sensory attributes and nutritional value; however large‐scale evaluations of fruit quality and antioxidant‐related traits remain limited. This study aimed to quantify phenotypic diversity and examine relationships between fruit quality and antioxidant traits in 100 peach and 32 apricot ...

SCUTELLARIA GENUS – POSSIBILITIES FOR USE OF SPECIES AS FLORAL AND MEDICINAL CROP [PDF]

Journal of Plant Development, 2009
Out of 350 species of Scutellaria found in the world, 90 species are reported from North America and 8 are native from Romania, but only three (S. altissima L., S. galericulata L., S. hastifolia L.) are very common.
