Early selection for drought tolerance in popcorn based on gene effects estimated in seedlings. [PDF]

Front Plant Sci, 2023
Low rainfall rates are becoming increasingly frequent because of climate change, causing droughts and threatening world food security. For popcorn, drought is the most limiting abiotic factor for plant’s growth and development.

Regional heritability mapping reveals genomic regions and candidate defense genes for multi-race anthracnose resistance in Phaseolus vulgaris. [PDF]

Sci Rep
Anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, is one of the most damaging diseases affecting common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). This study applied regional heritability mapping (RHM) to an Andean diversity panel of 225 accession phenotyped against

Revealing the differential protein profiles behind the nitrogen use efficiency in popcorn (Zea mays var. everta). [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2022
We investigated the proteomic profiles of two popcorn inbred lines, P2 (N-efficient and N-responsive) and L80 (N-inefficient and nonresponsive to N), under low (10% of N supply) and high (100% of N supply) nitrogen environments, associated with agronomic-

Adaptability and stability of Coffea canephora to dynamic environments using the Bayesian approach. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2022
The objective of this work was to use the Bayesian approach, modeling the interaction of coffee genotypes with the environment, using a bisegmented regression to identify stable and adapted genotypes. A group of 43 promising genotypes of Coffea canephora

Comparative proteomic analysis of papaya bud flowers reveals metabolic signatures and pathways driving hermaphrodite development. [PDF]

Sci Rep
Papaya (Carica papaya) is a trioecious species with female, male, and hermaphrodite plants. Given the sex segregation, selecting hermaphroditic plants is vital for orchard establishment due to their greater commercial value.
