Integrated characterization of Greek fennel genotypes through morpho‐agronomical characteristics, yield components and phytochemical compounds

open access: yesJSFA reports, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 91-103, March 2025.
Abstract Background Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) is a widely cultivated vegetable and aromatic‐medicinal plant. In this research, field studies assessed 12 fennel genotypes of diverse origin, comprising 10 Greek accessions and two European commercial varieties, focusing on their morpho‐agronomical traits, phenolic compounds and antioxidant ...

Long-Term Storage of Raspberry Pollen

open access: yesJournal of the American Pomological Society, 1983
Plant breeders are sometimes faced with the necessity of storing pollen for extended periods of time. When pollen is stored in such standard facilities as a refrigerator or home freezer, it remains viable for only a few weeks at best. The development of a reliable method to store pollen for extended periods would facilitate crosses among plant with ...

Is quinoa‐farming sustainable in marginal environments? Social, economical and environmental aspects

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean grain crop introduced as a novel crop to many parts of the world in recent years. Recognized for nutritious seeds and high abiotic stress tolerance, it has been promoted as an element of climate‐resilient agriculture, particularly in marginal environments.

Prolonged Cold Storage Affects Pollen Viability and Germination along with Hydrogen Peroxide and Nitric Oxide Content in Rosa hybrida

open access: yesNotulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2016
Roses (Rosa hybrida) are the most important ornamental cut-flowers and breeders’ main focus is to develop new desirable modern cultivars. Rose breeding programs center on the introduction of new flower colors, thornless stems, higher production and ...

Bee pollen as functional food and environmental bioindicator: current evidence and future challenges

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Bee pollen (BP), a plant‐derived product collected by honey bees, is increasingly promoted as a functional food due to its content of proteins, essential amino acids, lipids, vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds such as polyphenols and flavonoids.

Microbial characterization of bee pollen from the Vesuvius area collected by using three different traps.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Flower pollen is collected by honeybee foragers, adhered on their rear legs and transported into the hives in the form of pellets. Once in the hives, bee pollen is moisturised with nectar and bee mouth secretions and due to enzymatically modifications it

Portulaca abscondita (Portulacaceae, Caryophyllales), a new microendemic species from Monte Azul, Minas Gerais, Brazil

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Portulaca (Portulacaceae) is a cosmopolitan genus with centers of diversity in Africa and South America. In Brazil, 22 species are recognized, most occurring in xerophytic environments of the Cerrado, particularly in Campos Rupestres. These rocky montane habitats, especially in northern Minas Gerais state, remain undercollected despite their high ...

The disruption of seed dispersal networks: disentangling the effects of habitat loss and fragmentation

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Seed dispersal by frugivores is a central process linking plant reproduction, animal foraging, population persistence, and ecosystem resilience. Currently, the spatial template sustaining these interactions is rapidly reconfigured by habitat loss and fragmentation promoted by human activity.
