Intra-specific downsizing of frugivores affects seed germination of fleshy-fruited plant species
(Elsevier, 2017-12-06)
The loss of largest-bodied individuals within species of frugivorous animals is one of the major consequences of defaunation. The gradual disappearance of large-bodied frugivores is expected to entail ...
Dissecting the old Mediterranean durum wheat genetic architecture for phenology, biomass and yield formation by association mapping and QTL meta-analysis
(Public Library of Science, 2017-05-25)
Association mapping was used to identify genome regions affecting yield formation, crop phenology and crop biomass in a collection of 172 durum wheat landraces representative of the genetic diversity ...
Effect of Ppd-1 photoperiod sensitivity genes on dry matter production and allocation in durum wheat
(Elsevier, 2017-06-21)
Understanding the effect of genetic factors controlling flowering time is essential to fine-tune phenological
development and to maximize yield. Thirty-four spring durum wheat genotypes classified in ...
Cytoplasmic male sterility as a biological confinement tool for maize coexistence: optimization of pollinator spatial arrangement
(Czech Academy of Agricultural Sciences, 2017-04-25)
Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) allows efficient biological confinement of transgenes if pollen-mediated gene flow has to be reduced or eliminated. For introduction of CMS maize in agricultural practice, ...
