Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sesame (Sesamum indicum L., 2n = 26) is one of the oldest oilseed crops and is often called the ‘queen of oilseeds’ due to its high content of unsaturated fatty acids and natural antioxidants. Despite its long history, the origin and global spread of cultivated sesame remain unresolved.

Cuticular Waxes in Altered Environments and Their Role in Leaf Water Loss Dynamics
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes undeniably form the primary barrier restricting uncontrolled water loss from leaves, yet the functional consequences of environmentally induced wax modifications for residual (cuticular) transpiration remain a matter of debate. This review summarises current knowledge on how major abiotic stimuli influence foliar cuticular wax ...

Assessment of genetic diversity for various morpho-phenological traits in Sesame (Sesamum indicum)
The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2022 Sesame (Sesamum indicum L. 2n = 26) is considered as valuable oilseed crop known to humans since ancient times. Despite having high oil quality, it is grown in small area due to lack of high yielding varieties with inbuilt resistance to biotic and ...
