Characterizing the population structure and genetic diversity of maize breeding germplasm in Southwest China using genome-wide SNP markers

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2016
Maize breeding germplasm used in Southwest China has high complexity because of the diverse ecological features of this area. In this study, the population structure, genetic diversity, and linkage disequilibrium decay distance of 362 important inbred ...

Evaluation of sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) germplasm from north-eastern Uganda through a Farmer Participatory Approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Ugandan farmers grow many landrace sweetpotato varieties, but some of these are relatively low yielding and susceptible to pests. The objective of the present research was to involve farmers in a large-scale assessment of Ugandan farmers’ varieties to ...

The potential of seedbank digital information in plant conservation

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Seedbanks are vital for biodiversity conservation, but their potential remains underutilised due to a limited understanding of the intraspecific genetic diversity they hold. By leveraging digitised data associated with seedbank collections, such as sampling locations, number of maternal plants and seed traits, we can attempt the estimation of genetic ...

Digitalising biodiversity: Exploring perceptions on risks and opportunities

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Digitalisation is transforming biodiversity conservation, offering new opportunities for research, governance and public engagement. Herbarium digitisation, for example, enables large‐scale access to plant data, supporting conservation, restoration and sustainable use.

In vitro conservation of diploid banana accessions

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2000
A protocol for the in vitro conservation of diploid banana accessions based on lower temperature for culture environment was developed. Twenty four genotypes, four clones per genotype were studied. After disinfection, shoot tips (0.5 cm diameter x 0.5 cm

Genetic diversity of the floury race of maize Avati Morotî from the Guaraní tribe in Paraguay

open access: yesSpanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2016
Avati Morotî is a race of floury maize widely used by the Guarani people in South America, whose variability and potential value for breeding has been neglected so far. The objective of this research was to explore the genetic variability within the main

Cryopreservation and Germplasm Storage

open access: yes, 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.

Genetic diversity and population structure analysis to construct a core collection from a large Capsicum germplasm

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2016
BackgroundConservation of genetic diversity is an essential prerequisite for developing new cultivars with desirable agronomic traits. Although a large number of germplasm collections have been established worldwide, many of them face major difficulties ...
