Chapter
Insights into the Population Structure and Association Map** in Globe Artichoke
Understanding the population genetic structure of crop gene pool is a fundamental prerequisite in plant evolutionary biology and plant breeding. Based on this consideration, in this chapter we pursued two main...

Chapter
Domestication and Crop History
A new era has begun for Phaseolus vulgaris, and other Phaseolus spp., with the release of the reference genomes of both the Mesoamerican and Andean genotypes. Exploiting the new genome sequences information and t...

Chapter
Genomics of Origin, Domestication and Evolution of Phaseolus vulgaris
The role of genetic diversity is crucial for future improvements to meet societal demand for food security under a climate change scenario. From this perspective, it is thus crucial to understand the structure...

Genetic structure and linkage disequilibrium in landrace populations of barley in Sardinia
Multilocus digenic linkage disequilibria (LD) and their population structure were investigated in eleven landrace populations of barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare L.) in Sardinia, using 134 dominant simple-seq...

Open AccessAdaptation and diversity along an altitudinal gradient in Ethiopian barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) landraces revealed by molecular analysis
Among the cereal crops, barley is the species with the greatest adaptability to a wide range of environments. To determine the level and structure of genetic diversity in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) landraces fro...

Open AccessMolecular differentiation of commercial varieties and feral populations of oilseed rape (Brassica napusL.)
For assessing the risk of escape of transgenes from cultivation, the persistence of feral populations of crop plants is an important aspect. Feral populations of oilseed rape, Brassica napus, are well known, but ...

Genetic diversity of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) landraces from the central highlands of Ethiopia: comparison between the Belg and Meher growing seasons using morphological traits
In Ethiopia, barley is generally grown in two different planting seasons per year: during the long rainy season (Meher) and the short rainy season (Belg). The aim of the present study was to assess for the first ...

Genotype by environment interactions in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.): different responses of landraces, recombinant inbred lines and varieties to Mediterranean environment
Genotype-by-environment interactions (GEIs) can affect breeding progress because they often complicate the evaluation and selection of superior genotypes. This drawback can be reduced by gaining insights into ...

Molecular characterisation of vegetative compatibility groups in Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici and f. sp. lycopersici by random amplification of polymorphic DNA and microsatellite-primed PCR
Random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD-PCR) analysis was conducted on 48 isolates of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici (F.o.r.l.) from different geographic regions, representing all known veget...
