Germplasm of Hevea brasiliensis in Nigeria [PDF]
New countries adopting the cultivation of the rubber tree have the challenge of sourcing for germplasm of Hevea brasiliensis. In addition, breeding for adverse weather occasioned by climate change will require robust germplasm for genetic improvement.

Genetic diversity of cultivated accessions and wild species of rubber tree using EST‑SSR markers
The objective of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of EST‑SSR markers in the assessment of the genetic diversity of rubber tree genotypes (Hevea brasiliensis) and to verify the transferability of these markers for wild species of Hevea. Forty‑five

Integration of microsatellite (SSR) markers in Hevea spp. reference genetic map : a powerful tool for genetic analysis of qualitative and quantitative agronomic traits [PDF]
In 2000, was published (Lespinasse et al. 2000) the 1st genetic map of rubber tree (Hevea spp.). This saturated map encompassed 717 loci, allowing an efficient coverage of the 18 chromosomes of the Hevea genome, and it can be considered as the reference ...

Dietary RSO supplementation improved growth performance, simultaneously enriched n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA), and enhanced antioxidant capacity in Pekin ducks, which suggested that RSO has the potential to be a novel n‐3 PUFA source and an antioxidant for Pekin ducks to generate animal functional foods.

Production of mutants affected in hormone signalling to dissect defence mechanisms in Hevea brasiliensis: the case of ethylene [PDF]
Production of mutants by genetic transformation is one alternative to dissect the response to hormonal treatment. Ethylene is an important plant hormone involved in latex production.

A divide-and-conquer approach for genomic prediction in rubber tree using machine learning
Rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is the main feedstock for commercial rubber; however, its long vegetative cycle has hindered the development of more productive varieties via breeding programs. With the availability of H.

In vitro culture method of powdery mildew (Oidium heveae Steinmann) of Hevea brasiliensis [PDF]
A method for culturing powdery mildew (Oidium heveae) from isolated leaves of Hevea brasiliensis was evaluated, which included three steps: Leaves and fungi selection, nutrient solution and culture dish preparation, fungi inoculation and culture. The culture time and produced conidia number were considered as decision index. We tested the influence of
