RNA Interference based Approach to Down Regulate Osmoregulators of Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci): Potential Technology for the Control of Whitefly
Over the past decade RNA interference (RNAi) technology has emerged as a successful tool not only for functional genomics, but in planta expression of short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that could offer great potential for ...
Development of a panel of unigene derived polymorphic EST-SSR markers in lentil using public database information
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.), a diploid (2n = 14) with a genome size greater than 4000 Mbp, is an important cool season food legume grown worldwide. The availability of genomic resources is limited in this crop species. ...
Association mapping of germinability and seedling vigor in sorghum under controlled low-temperature conditions
Sorghum is one of the world’s most important food, feed, and fiber crops as well as a potential feedstock
for lignocellulosic bioenergy. Early-season planting extends sorghum’s growing season and increases yield in
temperate ...
Mapping Quantitative Trait Loci of Resistance to Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus and Leaf Spots in a Recombinant Inbred Line Population of Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) from SunOleic 97R and NC94022
Peanut is vulnerable to a range of diseases, such as Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and
leaf spots which will cause significant yield loss. The most sustainable, economical and
eco-friendly solution for managing peanut ...
Analysis of genetic diversity and population structure of peanut cultivars and breeding lines from China, India and the US using simple sequence repeat markers
Cultivated peanut is grown worldwide as richsource
of oil and protein. A broad genetic base is needed for
cultivar improvement. The objectives of this study were to
develop highly informative simple sequence repeat ...
Development of a High-Density Linkage Map and Tagging Leaf Spot Resistance in Pearl Millet Using Genotyping-by-Sequencing Markers
Pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br; also Cenchrus americanus
(L.) Morrone] is an important crop throughout the world but
better genomic resources for this species are needed to facilitate
crop improvement. Genome ...
Amplicon-based RNA interference targeting V2 gene of cotton leaf curl kokhran virus- burewala strain can provide resistance in transgenic cotton plants
The conserved coat or V2 gene of begomoviruses is responsible for viral movement in the plant cells. RNAi technology was used to silence V2 gene for resistance against these viruses in transgenic plants. The transformation ...
Genetic diversity among cultivated and wild lentils for iron, zinc, copper, calcium and magnesium concentrations
Information on the seed mineral concentration of cultivated and wild lentils is limited. The objective of this study was to determine the concentrations of iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), calcium (Ca), copper (Cu), and ...
Multiple post-domestication origins of kabuli chickpea through allelic variation in a diversification-associated transcription factor
Crop domestication and subsequent diversification represent adaptations to humanbuilt
environments and offer insights into the
evolutionary forces that shape phenotypic diversity. Chickpea (Cicer arietinum), a widely ...
