Dynamism and context‐dependency in diversification of the megadiverse plant genus Solanum (Solanaceae)

open access: yes, 2020
Explosive radiations—substantial increases in net species diversification—have been considered one of the most intriguing diversification patterns across the Tree of Life, but the subsequent change, movement, and extinction of the constituent lineages ...

Molecular Characterization of Solanum Species (Solanum aethiopicum complex; Solanum macrocarpon and Solanum anguivi) Using Multiplex RAPD primers

open access: yesJournal of Plant Studies, 2015
Genetic diversity of S. aethiopicum complex, S. macrocarpon and S. anguivi was investigated using molecular approach. Seeds were randomly secured across north central locations in Nigeria and planted. Nine (9) oligonucleotide primers were initially screened for their polymorphism from where five (5) polymorphic primers were selected.

Anatomical and Biochemical Studies of Solanum melongena and Solanum nigrum [PDF]

open access: yesUniversal Journal of Plant Science, 2020
Anatomical, mineral and nutritional studies were carried out on various parts of Solanum nigrum and Solanum melongena using standard techniques. Analysis of variance was employed for data analysis. Anatomical studies showed that the two species have similar features in the transverse sections of their leaves and stem but have dissimilar features in the

Epigenetic consequences of interploidal hybridisation in synthetic and natural interspecific potato hybrids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Interploidal hybridisation can generate changes in plant chromosome numbers, which might exert effects additional to the expected due to genome merger per se (i.e., genetic, epigenetic and phenotypic novelties).Wild potatoes are suitable to address this ...

Bioactive glycoalkaloides isolated from Solanum melongena fruit peels with potential anticancer properties against hepatocellular carcinoma cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is progressively increasing tumor with lack of accurate prognosis and inadequate systemic treatment approaches. Solanum sp. (such as Solanum melongena) is a folk herb which is reported to possess anticancer properties. In a

Studies on Nutritional Profile and Mineral Bioavailability of some Solanum Species Consumed as Fruits in Ekiti State, Nigeria

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2022
African eggplants are highly valued constituents of the Nigerian food. However, their nutritional potentials have not been fully tapped due to inadequate information on their nutritional and anti-nutritional qualities. This present study investigated the

Biomass water content effect on soil moisture assessment via proximal gamma-ray spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yesGeoderma 335, 69-77, 2019, 2018
Proximal gamma-ray spectroscopy supported by adequate calibration and correction for growing biomass is an effective field scale technique for a continuous monitoring of top soil water content dynamics to be potentially employed as a decision support tool for automatic irrigation scheduling.

Revision of the Solanum medians Complex (Solanum section Petota)

open access: yesSystematic Botany, 2008
Solanum medians is a widely distributed species of wild potato (Solanum sect. Petota), growing along the coastal lomas and up the western slopes of the Andes Mountains from central Peru and northern Chile, from 200–3800 m elevation. Fertile diploid and sterile triploid cytotypes are common, are believed to be associated with morphological variants ...

Superhydrophobic sand mulches increase agricultural productivity in arid regions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Excessive evaporative loss of water from the topsoil in arid-land agriculture is compensated via irrigation, which exploits massive freshwater resources. The cumulative effects of decades of unsustainable freshwater consumption in many arid regions are now threatening food-water security.

Introgression Browser: High throughput whole-genome SNP visualization [PDF]

open access: yesPlant J. 2015 Apr;82(1):174-82, 2015
Breeding by introgressive hybridization is a pivotal strategy to broaden the genetic basis of crops. Usually, the desired traits are monitored in consecutive crossing generations by marker-assisted selection, but their analyses fail in chromosome regions where crossover recombinants are rare or not viable.
