Protocols for efficient repetitive and secondary somatic embryogenesis in Helianthus maximiliani (Schrader)
(Springer, New York, 2001)
Indirect somatic embryogenesis was induced on leaf explants of greenhouse-grown Helianthus maximiliani plants. Leaves of the regenerated plants were used as starting explants for the induction of direct somatic embryogenesis. ...
Interpretation of hybrid x sowing date interaction for oil content and oil yield in sunflower
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2012)
Due to the presence of an interaction, it is often difficult to recommend which sunflower hybrids should be planted based on specific sowing dates or production regions. Through this study, the hybrid x sowing date (H x ...
Ex situ evaluation of cultivation potential in wild populations of large-flowered vetch (Vicia grandiflora)
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2013)
Large-flowered vetch (Vicia grandiflora Scop.) is widely present in many Eurasian wild floras, where it has significance in improving grassland communities and environment-friendly uses as a cover crop and green manure. ...
Forage yield components and classification of common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) cultivars of diverse geographic origin
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2014)
Conventional breeding programmes on common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) are based on knowledge of relationships between forage yield components and economically important characteristics. To improve this knowledge, a small-plot ...
Beauty will save the world, but will the world save beauty? The case of the highly endangered Vavilovia formosa (Stev.) Fed.
(Springer, New York, 2014)
Main conclusion Vavilovia formosa (Stev.) Fed. is a scientifically valuable common ancestor of the plant tribe Fabeae and also important in breeding and agronomy studies of the cultivated Fabeae, but it is close to extinction. ...
Exploring the performance of genomic prediction models for soybean yield using different validation approaches
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2019)
Genomic selection is a valuable breeding tool that has a great potential for implementation in a real breeding program, as long as prediction model performance is carefully evaluated for each specific scenario. The performance ...
Tracking footprints of selection associated with soybean adaptation to Central-East Europe environments
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2015)
The identification of genomic regions affected by phenotypic selection during breeding is important for elucidating the genetic basis of complex traits underlying adaptation to a specific target environment. This study ...
Aggressiveness evaluation of Diaporthe species causing soybean stem canker in the United States
(Amer Phytopathological Soc, St Paul, 2018)
A potential use of wild pea as a source of lower trypsin inhibitor activity
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2018)
The aim of this work was to estimate the trypsin inhibitor activity (TIA) in seeds of cultivated pea varieties, wild varieties and selected crosses between varieties from the first group and wild pea varieties and to study ...
Strontium accumulation in whole grain of Aegilops and Triticum species
(Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh, Weinheim, 2017)
Plant species differ in their ability to accumulate mineral elements. Differences also exist among genotypes, lines, and varieties within species. Strontium (Sr) enters the food chain primarily via plants, and wheat products ...
