Nucleotide diversity of a genomic sequence similar to SHATTERPROOF (PvSHP1) in domesticated and wild common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
Evolutionary studies in plant and animal breeding are aimed at understanding the structure and organization of genetic variations of species. We have identified and characterized a genomic sequence in Phaseolus v...

Beans in Europe: origin and structure of the European landraces of Phaseolus vulgaris L.
This study focuses on the expansion of Phaseolus vulgaris in Europe. The pathways of distribution of beans into and across Europe were very complex, with several introductions from the New World that were combine...

Phylogeny and evolution of mating-type genes from Pyrenophora teres, the causal agent of barley “net blotch” disease
The main aim of this study was to test the patterns of sequence divergence and haplotype structure at the MAT locus of Pyrenophora teres, the causal agent of barley ‘net blotch’ disease. P. teres is a heterothall...

Population genetic structure of Pyrenophora teresDrechs. the causal agent of net blotch in Sardinian landraces of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
Monoconidial cultures of Pyrenophora teres, the causal agent of barley net blotch, were isolated from leaves collected from six populations of the barley landrace "S'orgiu sardu" growing in five agro-ecological ...
