Germplasm of Hevea brasiliensis in Nigeria [PDF]

open access: yesGSC Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2017
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.

Latex yield variation among Hevea brasiliensis clones grown under the agro- climate of South-West Ethiopia

open access: yesTrees, Forests and People, 2022
Hevea brasiliensis is the primary commercial source of natural rubber in the world and its latex is a source for many industrial inputs. The latex yield potential of rubber tree plantations has been lower than the estimated potential due to latex yield ...

Genetic diversity of cultivated accessions and wild species of rubber tree using EST‑SSR markers

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2012
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

Physicochemical and Biological Properties of ZnO‐Incorporated Natural Rubber for Potential Wound Dressing Applications

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Antibiotic resistance has driven the search for effective alternatives in wound dressing development to reduce infection risk. In this context, incorporating metal particles into natural polymers has gained attention due to the synergistic properties of this combination.

Integration of microsatellite (SSR) markers in Hevea spp. reference genetic map : a powerful tool for genetic analysis of qualitative and quantitative agronomic traits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
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 ...

Dual Functions of Dietary Rubber Seed Oil Supplementation: Enriching N‐3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Enhancing Antioxidant Capacity in Pekin Ducks

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
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]

open access: yes, 2012
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.

Investigations on the nutritional status of Hevea brasiliensis plantations in the humid forest zone of CameroonPart 2: Establishment of macro nutrient norms

open access: yesJournal für Kulturpflanzen, 2013
Standard nutrient values are needed for the assessment of optimum nutrient concentrations for improved and sustained yields. The aim of this study was to establish optimum soil and plant nutrient values for Hevea brasiliensis in the humid forest region ...

A divide-and-conquer approach for genomic prediction in rubber tree using machine learning

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
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]

open access: yesAFRICAN JOURNAL OF BIOTECHNOLOGY, 2012
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
