Open AccessExploitation of epigenetic variation of crop wild relatives for crop improvement and agrobiodiversity preservation
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 desire...

Screening for mutations affecting sexual reproduction after activation tagging inArabidopsis thaliana
In this work, a seed-set-based screening was performed on 70 lines ofArabidopsis thaliana after activation tagging mutagenesis to identify mutations in reproductive mechanisms. Five mutants showed significantly l...

Tolerance to abiotic stresses in potato plants: a molecular approach
Continuing study of the potato plant's response to stressful conditions has led to the identification of a large number of plant genes whose expression, is regulated by external stimuli. Stress-induced genes c...

Regulation of Gene Expression during Cellular Adaptation to Water Stress
Gradual adaptation to water stress was accomplished by a set of metabolic adjustments, including proline accumulation, synthesis ofde novo proteins, and changes in gene expression. The ability of the adapted cell...
