Advancing European Plant Variety Registration: Data‐Driven Insights and Stakeholder Perspectives

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient plant variety registration is crucial for fostering innovation in the European Union, yet the current regulatory framework is complex and faces calls for reform. This study provides data‐driven evidence to inform the ongoing legislative debate by employing a mixed‐methods approach.

Insight into the vegetation development of the Karkonosze Mountains (southwestern Poland) during the Late Vistulian and Holocene, based on data from glacial lakes

Acta Palaeobotanica
New palaeoecological records from two glacial lakes (the Mały Staw – 1183 m a.s.l. and the Wielki Staw – 1225 m a.s.l.) from the Polish Western Sudetes were obtained with the aim of better understanding the long-term vegetation development, the ...

Efficient haploid production on 'Wilking' mandarin by induced gynogenesis [PDF]

, 2015
Seedlessness is a major criterion for the citrus fresh fruit market. Therefore, triploid breeding appears very promising for the selection of new citrus cultivars.

The limits of mean-field heterozygosity estimates under spatial extension in simulated plant populations [PDF]

, 2012
Computational models of evolutionary processes are increasingly required to incorporate multiple and diverse sources of data. A popular feature to include in population genetics models is spatial extension, which reflects more accurately natural ...

Enhancement of developmental defects in the boron‐deficient maize mutant tassel‐less1 by reduced auxin levels

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Background Plant responses to deficiencies of the micronutrient boron are diverse and go beyond the well‐characterized function of boron in cell wall crosslinking. To explain these phenotypic discrepancies, hypotheses about interactions of boron with various phytohormones have been proposed, particularly auxin.

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

Boron deficiency responses in maize (Zea mays L.) roots

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Background Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient for plants. Dicot plants respond to insufficient B supply by altering root architecture and root hair growth. How root systems of rather low‐B demanding monocot species such as maize (Zea mays L.) respond to B deficiency in terra has not been experimentally resolved, yet.

Paleoenvironmental changes and the development of lakes in the late pleistocene and holocene on the Kola Peninsula southern coast (near the village of Umba)

Transactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2015
New results of pollen analysis for a lake in the Umba River catchment (southern Kola Peninsula) are presented. The lake was surveyed within a study of lake sediments carried out to determine the relative White Sea shore displacements in the Late Glacial ...
