Genetic diversity associated with agronomic traits using microsatellite markers in Pakistani rice landraces
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, 2010)
First collection of landrace vegetable crops cultivated in Valle Fértil, Argentina
(Universidad Nacional de Córdoba. Facultad de Ciencias Agropecuarias, 2012-12)
La riqueza cultural de las comunidades andinas de la Argentina está integrada por la diversidad de sus recursos genéticos, el desarrollo de un sistema agrícola sostenible y por el mantenimiento de sus semillas. La agricultura ...
Tolerance in Maize Landraces to Diabrotica speciosa (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) Larvae and Its Relationship to Plant Pigments, Compatible Osmolytes, and Vigor
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, 2021-02-01)
The rootworm Diabrotica speciosa (Germar) is native to South America and causes severe economic losses to several crops due to root feeding and disease spread. In maize (Zea mays L.), losses in production come from larval ...
Convergent Adaptations: Bitter Manioc Cultivation Systems in Fertile Anthropogenic Dark Earths and Floodplain Soils in Central Amazonia
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCESAN FRANCISCO, 2012)
Shifting cultivation in the humid tropics is incredibly diverse, yet research tends to focus on one type: long-fallow shifting cultivation. While it is a typical adaptation to the highly-weathered nutrient-poor soils of ...
Genetic characterization of the 28 maize landraces in Paraná State
(2017-07-01)
The characterization of maize landraces is extremely important in breeding programs for use of these genotypes as sources of genetic variability. The objective of this study was to quantitatively characterize 28 populations ...
Microsatellite Polymorphisms in Cassava Landraces from the Cerrado Biome, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil
(SPRINGER/PLENUM PUBLISHERS, 2010)
Using nine microsatellite loci, we investigated genetic structure and diversity in 83 Brazilian cassava accessions, including several landraces, in the Cerrado biome in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. All nine loci were ...
Morphological variation and isozyme diversity in Dioscorea alata L. landraces from Vale do Ribeira, Brazil
(São Paulo - Escola Superior de Agricultura "Luiz de Queiroz", 2011)
Traditional growers of the Vale do Ribeira, São Paulo State, grow and make use of several D. alata landraces. This study assessed the genetic diversity of 16 landraces, using isozymatic and morphological markers and comparing ...
