Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2013 Tobacco is an important cash crop in the world. However, the genetic basis is comparatively narrow among the modern Nicotiana tabacum cultivars, limiting its potential for quality improvement. To introduce genes conferring desirable chemical constituents

DArTseq Genotypic and Phenotypic Diversity of Barley Landraces Originating from Different Countries
Agronomy, 2021 Landraces are considered a key element of agrobiodiversity because of their high variability and adaptation to local environmental conditions, but at the same time, they represent a breeding potential hidden in gene banks that has not yet been fully ...

Development of In vitro Slow Growth Culture for Yam (Dioscorea alata L.)
Annals of Tropical Research, 2012 Germplasm collections, the lifeblood of breeding programs, are traditionally maintained in the field. Field genebanks are expensive, subject to genetic erosion, and require several quarantine measures for safe movement of genetic materials.
