abiotic stress; beneficial microorganisms; biomass; breeding programs; defense mechanisms; disease resistance; genetic background; jasmonic acid; mycorrhizae; mycorrhizal fungi; nutrient use efficiency; nutrients; phosphorus; plant breeding; plant hormones; salicylic acid; signal transduction
Abstract:
... Modern plant breeding can no longer afford to ignore the interaction between plants and microbial key players. Increasing evidence suggests (i) that the expression of many plant traits (such as nutrient use efficiency or tolerances against biotic and abiotic stresses) is mediated by beneficial microorganisms and (ii) that there is an exploitable genetic base for the regulation of symbiotic relatio ...

Abstract:
... Drought stress on reproductive stages constitute a major problem for common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) production because it affects flowering and pod-filling processes which are highly drought-sensitive. In this study, we used a greenhouse experiment to evaluate the response to drought stress in ten highly cultivated Brazilian genotypes in response to moderate intermittent drought during flower ...

Arabidopsis thaliana; Lolium perenne; ambient temperature; chromosome mapping; flowering date; genes; genomics; gibberellins; grasses; linkage groups; models; photoperiod; plant breeding; quantitative trait loci; vernalization
Abstract:
... Flowering in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) is induced by a period of short days and low temperatures (vernalisation), followed by long-day photoperiod conditions. Genetic linkage mapping and association genetics studies have collectively identified 36 quantitative trait loci for flowering time which were distributed across all seven linkage groups of perennial ryegrass. Close to 40 genes ...

Synthetic hexaploid wheat (SHW) is derived from a cross between Triticum durum Desf. and Aegilops tauschii Coss. that enhances genetic diversity and broadens breeding resources. In this study, phenotypic diversity in 110 wheat access ...

Abstract:
... Sugar beet hybrid varieties are produced through the crosses between male sterile lines and the multigerm pollinators. The uniformity of pollinators used for hybrid crosses depends on the presence of self-sterility (S ˢ) and self-fertility (S ᶠ) genes. The aim of the study was to analyze correlation between hybrid performance and genetic distance or heterozygosity of the sugar beet pollinators. Tw ...

The leafminer Liriomyza sativae (Diptera: Agromyzidae) stands out as the main plant health problem in melon in the Northeast region of Brazil, which is the main region for production and export of the fruit. Genetic resistance of plants is an important strategy in management of this pest. The plant BAGMEL 56-R was selected as a new source of resistance to L. sativae through antibiosis; this resist ...

Abstract:
... Non-heading Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris L. ssp. chinensis Makino), an important vegetable in East Asian countries, is rich in vitamin C, dietary fiber, and other health-enhancing factors. As a staple vegetable, its genetic studies have been hindered due to the lack of polymorphic genetic markers. In this research, 2.3 and 2.1 Gb RNA-seq data have been obtained for a heat-sensitive cultiva ...

Abstract:
... Multi-trait indices (MTI) weigh traits based on their importance to facilitate selection in plant and animal improvement. In animal breeding, economic values are used to develop MTIs. For vegetables, economic data valuing traits are rarely available. We posit that varieties with traits valued by growers and processors achieve higher market share and longer life span. Our objective was to develop M ...

Abstract:
... Maize has been targeted as one of the major crops for provitamin enrichment and delivery because it is an inexpensive and easily available source of food for millions of people in sub-Saharan Africa. Although tropical-adapted yellow maize contains provitamin-A carotenoids that can be converted into vitamin A in the human body, they represent less than 25% of the total carotenoids in most widely gr ...

Abstract:
... Downy mildew (DM) is one of the most destructive diseases affecting viticulture, especially in temperate-humid climates. This pathogen is able to differentially attack leaves and grapes, and is currently controlled with repeated applications of fungicides that lead to environmental pollution, development of resistant strains, residual toxicity, and pathogen pressure. The use of resistant grapevine ...

Ten seedlings from 36 crosses representing eastern and western North American short day and remontant genotypes were evaluated in 2011 and 2012 in California, Michigan, New Hampshire and Oregon, for phenology, flower related traits, plant characteristics, fruit characteristics and fruit chemistry traits. There was significant variability among genotypes, locations and evaluation year for most of t ...
