White Mustard (Sinapis alba L.) Oil in Biodiesel Production: A Review
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2020)
White mustard (Sinapis alba L.) seed oil is used for cooking, food preservation, body and hair revitalization, biodiesel production, and as a diesel fuel additive and alternative biofuel. This review focuses on biodiesel ...
Co-occurrence of Mild Salinity and Drought Synergistically Enhances Biomass and Grain Retardation in Wheat
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2019)
In the present study we analyzed the responses of wheat to mild salinity and drought with special emphasis on the so far unclarified interaction of these important stress factors by using high-throughput phenotyping ...
Camelina, an ancient oilseed crop actively contributing to the rural renaissance in Europe. A review
(Springer France, Paris, 2021)
Promoting crop diversification in European agriculture is a key pillar of the agroecological transition. Diversifying crops generally enhances crop productivity, quality, soil health and fertility, and resilience to pests ...
Epigenetics: possible applications in climate-smart crop breeding
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2020)
To better adapt transiently or lastingly to stimuli from the surrounding environment, the chromatin states in plant cells vary to allow the cells to fine-tune their transcriptional profiles. Modifications of chromatin ...
Sunflower Hybrid Breeding: From Markers to Genomic Selection
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2018)
In sunflower, molecular markers for simple traits as, e.g., fertility restoration, high oleic acid content, herbicide tolerance or resistances to Plasmopara halstedii, Puccinia helianthi, or Orobanche cumana have been ...
Plant breeding for increased sustainability: challenges, opportunities and progress
(Springer, 2022)
Humanity is facing enormous challenges in the years to come: sustainability of agriculture and sustainability of our supply with food, feed and renewable materials are neither granted nor free. Especially, but not only, ...
Digital Image Analysis Using FloCIA Software for Ornamental Sunflower Ray Floret Color Evaluation
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2020)
As an esthetic trait, ray floret color has a high importance in the development of new sunflower genotypes and their market value. Standard methodology for the evaluation of sunflower ray florets is based on International ...
Exploitation of epigenetic variation of crop wild relatives for crop improvement and agrobiodiversity preservation
(Springer, 2022)
Crop wild relatives (CWRs) are recognized as the best potential source of traits for crop improvement. However, successful crop improvement using CWR relies on identifying variation in genes controlling desired traits in ...
Effect of stem structural characteristics and cell wall components related to stem lodging resistance in a newly identified mutant of hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2022)
In wheat, lodging is affected by anatomical and chemical characteristics of the stem cell wall. Plant characteristics determining the stem strength were measured in lodging tolerant mutant (PMW-2016-1) developed through ...
High-throughput screening of soybean di-nitrogen fixation and seed nitrogen content using spectral sensing
(Elsevier, 2022)
Symbiotic di-nitrogen fixation of grain legumes has a substantial impact on crop performance, harvest product quality, and nitrogen (N) balance of crop rotations, particularly under organic management regimes. In soybean ...
