MIDDLE MATURING MAIZE HYBRIDS ‘ZERNOGRADSKY 354 MV’ AND ‘GEFEST MV’

open access: yesЗерновое хозяйство России, 2018
A long use of the hybrid in production often results in the loss of immunity to the diseases. Climate change and growing needs of the farmers also demand a consistent improvement of maize hybrids.

Complete chloroplast genome of Triticum aestivum cultivar ‘Keumkang’ from Korea (Poaceae) and comparative chloroplast genomes of the members of the Triticum genus

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major global food crop, and understanding its maternal lineage and genetic diversity is essential for breeding, authentication, and evolutionary studies. Chloroplast genomes provide valuable markers for phylogenetic inference and cultivar discrimination; however, conventional plant DNA ...

Asphalted parking lots are environmental filters for multiple propagule dispersal and pollination strategies

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Understanding community assembly for wild species in anthropogenic settings has become increasingly important as biodiversity and ecosystem services are threatened by development pressures. Urban hardscape habitats such as parking lots are widespread, extreme, terrestrial anthropogenic environments that influence plant community assembly by way of ...

Variation in pollen limitation among reproductive modules points to likely resource reallocation in the alpine plant Veratrum grandiflorum

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Pollen limitation, a decrease in seed production due to insufficient pollen receipt, may influence plant demography and the evolution of sexual systems. Its empirical estimation of pollen supplementation of some of the flowers on an individual is well known to be prone to overestimation due to potential resource reallocation among the individual's ...
