Co-expression networks in sunflower : harnessing the power of multi-study transcriptomic public data to identify and categorize candidate genes for fungal resistance
(MDPI, 2023-08)Fungal plant diseases are a major threat to food security worldwide. Current efforts to identify and list loci involved in different biological processes are more complicated than originally thought, even when complete ... -
Development, characterization and experimental validation of a cultivated sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) gene expression oligonucleotide microarray
(PLOS One, 2012-10)Oligonucleotide-based microarrays with accurate gene coverage represent a key strategy for transcriptional studies in orphan species such as sunflower, H. annuus L., which lacks full genome sequences. The goal of this study ... -
Ecophysiological and Molecular Analysis of Contrasting Genotypes for Leaf Senescence in Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) Under Differential Doses of N in Soil
(MDPI, 2024-12)Leaf senescence in plants is the last stage of leaf development and is characterized by a decline in photosynthetic activity, an active degeneration of cellular structures, and the recycling of accumulated nutrients to ... -
Exploring sunflower responses to Sclerotinia head rot at early stages of infection using RNA‑seq analysis
(Springer Nature, 2020-08)Sclerotinia head rot (SHR), caused by the necrotrophic fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, is one of the most devastating sunflower crop diseases. Despite its worldwide occurrence, the genetic determinants of plant resistance ... -
Genome-wide and comparative phylogenetic analysis of senescence-associated NAC transcription factors in sunflower (Helianthus annuus)
(Springer, 2021-12)Background: Leaf senescence delay impacts positively in grain yield by maintaining the photosynthetic area during the reproductive stage and during grain filling. Therefore a comprehensive understanding of the gene families ... -
Genome-wide association studies in sunflower : towards sclerotinia sclerotiorum and diaporthe/phomopsis resistance breeding
(MDPI, 2022-12)Diseases caused by necrotrophic fungi, such as the cosmopolitan Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and the Diaporthe/Phomopsis complex, are among the most destructive diseases of sunflower worldwide. The lack of complete resistance ... -
On-field phenotypic evaluation of sunflower populations for broad-spectrum resistance to Verticillium leaf mottle and wilt
(Springer Nature, 2021-06)Sunflower Verticillium Wilt and Leaf Mottle (SVW), caused by Verticillium dahliae (Kleb.; Vd), is a soil-borne disease affecting sunflower worldwide. A single dominant locus, known as V1, was formerly effective in controlling ... -
Peculiarities of the Transformation of Asteraceae Family Species: The Cases of Sunflower and Lettuce
(Frontiers Publishing, 2021-11)The Asteraceae family is the largest and most diversified family of the Angiosperms, characterized by the presence of numerous clustered inflorescences, which have the appearance of a single compound flower. It is estimated ... -
Phenotyping sunflower genetic resources for Sclerotinia head rot response: assessing variability for disease resistance breeding
(The American Phytopathological Society, 2017-11)Sclerotinia head rot (SHR) is one of the most serious constraints to sunflower (Helianthus annuus L. var. macrocarpus) production worldwide. Here, we evaluated the response to SHR in a sunflower inbred panel from a large ... -
Transcriptomic Analysis Reveals a Differential Gene Expression Profile Between Two Sunflower Inbred Lines with Different Ability to Tolerate Water Stress
(Springer, 2020-01)Although sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is categorized as a medium drought-sensitive crop, in a changing climate scenario and/or with the onset of early droughts, the crop may be affected by water stress. This study ... -
Unveiling changes in the rhizosphere bacteriome of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) inbred lines linked to their resistance to the soil borne pathogen Verticillium dahliae Kleb
(Elsevier, 2025-02)Plants infected by fungal pathogens often actively recruit microbes in their roots to protect themselves. It is widely accepted that the plant microbiome plays a crucial role to sustain the fitness, resilience and development ... -
Unveiling the genetic basis of Sclerotinia head rot resistance in sunflower
(BMC, 2020-07)Background: Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a necrotrophic fungus that causes Sclerotinia head rot (SHR) in sunflower, with epidemics leading to severe yield losses. In this work, we present an association mapping (AM) approach ...
