Líneas forrajeras de maíz originadas en la cruza con Zea diploperennis I.: aptitud combinatoria
Los maíces forrajeros se diferencian de los graníferos por el desarrollo de la parte aérea, el llenado del grano, el mantenimiento de la planta verde en el momento de corte, el porcentaje de materia seca, la digestibilidad y el consumo animal.

En la Argentina, como en la mayoría de los países, no existen cultivares o híbridos de maíz destinados exclusivamente a la producción de forraje, sino que se utilizan con doble propósito los híbridos que se han seleccionado para producción de grano.

Plant conservation assessment at scale: Rapid triage of extinction risks
The current rate of global biodiversity loss creates a pressing need to increase efficiency and throughput of extinction risk assessments in plants. We must assess as many plant species as possible, working with imperfect knowledge, to address the habitat loss and extinction threats of the Anthropocene.

Genome Editing‐accelerated Re‐Domestication (GEaReD) – A new major direction in plant breeding
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary Upcoming challenges to agriculture such as the impact of climate change, food for a rising global population, and the environmental footprint ask for new ideas in plant breeding. Here, one possible future development in plant breeding is proposed.

Abstract Leaf water potential (ψleaf), typically measured using the pressure chamber, is the most important metric of plant water status, providing high theoretical value and information content for multiple applications in quantifying critical physiological processes including drought responses.

Maize diversity for fall armyworm resistance in a warming world
Abstract Currently, maize (Zea mays L.) production is under threat from climate change, drought, and pests such as fall armyworm (FAW) [Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)]. Since its first detection outside of its native range in 2016, FAW has spread into 76 nations across Africa and Asia adversely affecting maize production ...

Extinction risk of Mesoamerican crop wild relatives
Crop wild relatives (CWR) are plant taxa closely related to crops and are a source of high genetic diversity that can help adapt crops to the impacts of global change, particularly to meet increasing consumer demand in the face of the climate crisis.

Abstract In this article, we explore why conservation schemes that have positive outcomes through the participation of local communities cannot necessarily be deemed as just. We observe that recognition (understood as inclusion and respect) of local communities’ value‐systems, a key factor towards environmental justice, is not often achieved in ...
