Abstract:
... Soybean production in Brazil is concentrated in the central and southern regions of the country, although expansion is occurring toward the northeast, where semi-arid conditions are predominant. There is little information on the behavior of soybean cultivars in semiarid climates; therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the interaction of soybean genotypes by environment, adaptabili ...

Abstract:
... Legumes are important in sustainable agriculture and particularly so when they are intercropped with other species. In breeding programs, little attention is paid to their agronomic performance in species mixtures. In red clover, improved persistence is an important breeding goal. We identified traits associated with survival of red clover cultivated in pure stands (PS 3) or in mixtures with grass ...

Lens ervoides accession IG 72815 exhibits high levels of resistance to the pathogenic races 0 and 1. The objective of this study was to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with anthracnose resistance in lentil using a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population ...

Abstract:
... Seedling emergence (SE) is an essential trait in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) that allows desirable stand establishment even when adequate seed-zone soil moisture is present at depths of 10 cm or greater. The SE trait bestows several other advantages, including lodging resistance and improved water use efficiency. The aim of this study was to understand the genetic basis of SE. It has previously b ...

Abstract:
... Chemical insecticides comprise the most widely used method of tomato pest control. Genotypes resistant to pests such as the silver leaf whitefly Bemisia tabaci may contribute towards the decreased use of insecticides to protect the environment. Leaf trichomes play a role in imparting resistance to pests, and exploiting intraspecific and interspecific variability for leaf trichomes in the tomato ge ...

Characterization of responses of existing germplasm to major biotic constraints is crucial for cultivar development. Our studies confirm that V. articulata germplasm can be severely infected by rusts, particularly by the r ...

Abstract:
... Papaya has a narrow genetic base concerning disease resistance, with few genetically distinct cultivars for planting in the world. Losses in crop production caused by fungal and viral diseases, added to the absence of resistant cultivars available to producers, have reduced the competitiveness of crops. Therefore, this study aimed to select promising individuals for resistance to phoma spot and bl ...

It has been reported that F1 LA hybrids could produce a small number of functional 2n eggs regardless of their male sterility, however, there are very little similar phenomena reported in OA, LO, or OT hybrids, though there are many allotriploid cultivars in flower markets, involving distant hybrids. To investigate the occurrence of 2n eggs in distant lily F1 hybrids, a diploid OT hybrid was analy ...
