Allelic variation of puroindolines genes in Iranian common wheat landraces
(MDPI, 2022-08-10)Wheat is one of the most widely grown crops in the world. One of the traits that defines wheat quality is grain hardness, which is determined by puroindolines (PINA and PINB) proteins encoded with Pina-D1 and Pinb-D1 genes. ... -
Characterization of the repetitive DNA landscape in wheat homeologous group 4 chromosomes
(2015)Background: The number and complexity of repetitive elements varies between species, being in general most represented in those with larger genomes. Combining the flow-sorted chromosome arms approach to genome analysis ... -
De novo assembly and characterization of leaf transcriptome for the development of functional molecular markers of the extremophile multipurpose tree species Prosopis alba
(2013-10)Background: Prosopis alba (Fabaceae) is an important native tree adapted to arid and semiarid regions of north-western Argentina which is of great value as multipurpose species. Despite its importance, the genomic resources ... -
De novo transcriptome sequencing and SSR markers development for Cedrela balansae C.DC., a native tree species of northwest Argentina
(Plos One, 2018-12)The endangered Cedrela balansae C.DC. (Meliaceae) is a high-value timber species with great potential for forest plantations that inhabits the tropical forests in Northwestern Argentina.Research on this species is scarce ... -
Genetic diversity and differentiation among Prosopis alba (Leguminosae) populations from dry valleys of Bolivia with different levels of human disturbance and altitude
(Wiley, 2018-10-31)The fast expansion of human population around La Paz, Bolivia (3,200–4,100 m.a.s.l.) triggered new suburban settlements in nearby areas in valleys and mountain feet. The white mesquite, Prosopis alba Griseb. (Leguminosae), ... -
Genomic-based multiple-trait evaluation in Eucalyptus grandis using dominant DArT markers
(2018-06)We investigated the impact of combining the pedigree- and genomic-based relationship matrices in a multiple-trait individual-tree mixed model (a.k.a., multiple-trait combined approach) on the estimates of heritability and ... -
Identification and joint modeling of competition effects and environmental heterogeneity in three Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii) trials
(2016-12)(Co)variance matrices for the assumed model, and thus the specification of the dispersion parameters, should take into account both the negative competition and the positive spatial correlations. In this context, we applied ... -
Improving accuracy of breeding values by incorporating genomic information in spatial - competition mixed models
(2017-10)Climate change and the increasing demand for sustainable energy resources require urgent strategies to increase the accuracy of selection in tree breeding (associated with higher gain). We investigated the combined pedigree ... -
Improving genomic prediction of growth and wood traits in Eucalyptus using phenotypes from non-genotyped trees by single-step GBLUP
(Elsevier, 2019-03-28)Genomic Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (GBLUP) in tree breeding typically only uses information from genotyped trees. However, information from phenotyped but non-genotyped trees can also be highly valuable. The single-step ... -
Intraspecific variation in essencial oil composition of A.N. the medicinal plant Lippia integrifolia (verbenaceae), evidence for five chemotypes
(2016-02)The aerial parts of Lippia integrifolia (incayuyo) are widely used in northwestern and central Argentina for their medicinal and aromatic properties. The essential oil composition of thirty-one wild populations of L. ... -
Munroa argentina, a grass of the South American transtion zone, survived the Andean uplift, aridification and glaciations of the quaternary
(2015-06-25)The South American Transition Zone (SATZ) is a biogeographic area in which not only orogeny (Andes uplift) and climate events (aridification) since the mid-Miocene, but also Quaternary glaciation cycles had an important ... -
Regulation of Zn and Fe transporters by the GPC1gene during early wheat monocarpic senescence
(2014-12)Background; During wheat senescence, leaf components are degraded in a coordinated manner, releasing amino acids and micronutrients which are subsequently transported to the developing grain. We have previously shown that ... -
Single - step genomic prediction of Eucalyptus dunnii using different identity by descent and identity by state relation ship matrices
(Nature, 2021-06-18)Eucalyptus L’Hér. (Myrtaceae) is the most valuable and globally planted forest tree genus. Fast growth, adaptability to a broad diversity of tropical and subtropical regions, combined with versatile wood properties for ... -
Single-step BLUP with varying genotyping effort in open-pollinated Picea glauca
(2017-03)Maximization of genetic gain in forest tree breeding programs is contingent on the accuracy of the predicted breeding values and precision of the estimated genetic parameters. We investigated the effect of the combined use ... -
SSRs, SNPs and DArTs comparison on estimation of relatedness and genetic parameters’ precision from a small half-sib sample population of eucalyptus grandis
(2016)Simple sequence repeats (SSR) are the most widely used molecular markers for relatedness inference due to their multi-allelic nature and high informativeness. However, there is a growing trend toward using high-throughput ... -
The chromosome region including the earliness per se locus Eps-Am1 affects the duration of early developmental phases and spikelet number in diploid wheat
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2008-10)Earliness per se genes are those that regulate flowering time independently of vernalization and photoperiod, and are important for the fine tuning of flowering time and for the wide adaptation of wheat to different ...
