Abstract:
... Spanish striped eggplants (Solanum melongena L.) are generally known as Listada. Among them, the most internationally renowned is the Listada de Gandía heirloom. Enhancement and legal protection of these local materials requires the analysis of their characteristics, diversity and relationships with similar accessions. We performed a morphological, agronomic and molecular (amplified fragment lengt ...

Cucumis melo; melons; germplasm; germplasm conservation; plant genetic resources; genetic improvement; genetic variation; random amplified polymorphic DNA technique; plant development; plant morphology; fruits (plant anatomy); domestication; China
Abstract:
... The genetic diversity of melon market types (Cucumis melo L., 2n = 2x = 24) in China, an important secondary center of diversity, has not been examined. Therefore, reference accessions from India and Africa, Crete/Greece, Japan, Europe, U.S.A., Spain, and 68 Chinese cultigens (fresh-market non-netted thin-skinned; non-netted thick-skinned; netted thick-skinned; and non-netted thin-skinned, and veg ...

temporal variation; Fagaceae; weight; seed germination; endangered species; germplasm; seeds; fruit set; seed abortion; plant genetic resources; plant morphology; dimensions
Abstract:
... Trigonobalanus doichangensis is recognized as a rare and endangered plant of China. The morphological and physiological traits of fruits were investigated in one population over 2 years (2006-2007) and in four populations during 2007 in order to facilitate ex-situ conservation and eventual reforestation through planting of propagules. The results indicated that morphological traits including fruit ...

Subject:
Trifolium pratense; genetic variation; genetic markers; microsatellite repeats; germplasm; plant genetic resources; heterozygosity; loci; alleles; plant morphology; cluster analysis; Brazil; United States
Abstract:
... The NPGS-USDA core collection with 85 accessions of red clover, an important forage species, is little described. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the diversity of a set of accessions from the core collection at the morphological and molecular level in order to extract some valuable accessions for Brazilian red clover breeding programs. Twenty-one morphological traits, collected in fi ...
