IDENTIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF GENETIC LOCI FOR CULM MORPHOLOGY TRAITS IN BARLEY (HORDEUM VULGARE L.)
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the most important cereal crops worldwide and it has been widely used as a model species in plant genetics and breeding. Stem lodging is a major constraint to yield potential and grain quality in barley. Since the Green Revolution, height reduction has been the …

LOW-PHYTATE GRAINS TO ENHANCE PHOSPHORUS SUSTAINABILITY IN AGRICULTURE: GENETIC ANALYSIS ON THE LOW PHYTIC ACID1-1 MAIZE MUTANT
… the environmental phosphorus sustainability in agriculture. In maize (Zea mays L.), four low phytic acid (lpa) mutations have been isolated and lpa1-1 is the most promising. However, the reduction of phytic acid in lpa1-1 leads to many adverse pleiotropic effects on the seed and in general on …

Dissection of black rot resistance towards marker-assisted breeding in grapevine Pedigree reconstruction and phenotyping optimization coupled with high-density linkage mapping revealed a major QTL associated with bunch resistance.
… on grapes, one of the most valuable fruits in agriculture, but it is also characterized by the highest uses of fungicides per hectare for disease management. In fact, despite the availability of genetic resources resistant to the most diffuse fungal pathogens, those cover less than a fifth of …

SNP ANALYSIS FOR DROUGHT-RELATED CANDIDATE GENES IN A GERMPLASM COLLECTION AND A TILLING POPULATION OF ITALIAN RICE
Rice is the most important food crop in the world, representing the main source of caloric intake for more than one third of the world’s population. Although a great part of the global rice production comes from the developing countries such as China, India, Indonesia and Bangladesh, northern Italy …

PHOTOPERIODIC REGULATION OF RICE STEM ELONGATION BY THE GENE PINE1
… of this pathway for rice breeding for agriculture. The hypothesis that PINE1 could be regulated by genes involved in the flowering machinery has been tested by generating overexpressors of the known flowering related genes OsMADS14, OsMADS15 and FTL1 to assess their phenotype regarding …

TWO NOVEL GENES DOWNSTREAM OF THE FLORIGENIC AND THE PHOTOPERIODIC INDUCTION CONTROL RICE PLANT DEVELOPMENT IN THE REPRODUCTIVE STAGE
Il riso (Oryza sativa L.) è una pianta a giorno corto facoltativa appartenente alla famiglia delle Poaceae. È una specie modello per le piante erbacee a causa del genoma relativamente piccolo e la facilità di gestione, in particolare quando si tratta di studiare network genetici complessi come …

Grapesystress: Use of systems biology and new breeding technology approaches to study water stress-resistant in grapevine plants.
Climate change will severely impact the wine industry, with increased frequency and duration of water stress posing significant threats to grape production in Mediterranean climates. These challenges will be compounded by heightened pest pressure and crop loss. Even though irrigation systems will …

Dissecting the genetic, physiological and metabolic mechanisms of grapevine resilience to heat stress
Grapevine (Vitis spp.) is one of the most widely cultivated perennial fruit crops in the world and its economic relevance is mainly related to wine production. In recent years, the increased frequency of extreme phenomena such as heat waves has been acknowledged as one of the most significant …

CHROMOSOME AND GENOTYPE CHARACTERIZATION IN SOME RICE BIOTYPES SHOWING GRAIN SHATTERING
Red rice (Oryza sativa var. silvatica L.) is a common weed in rice crop, very troublesome to control due to high shattering. The aim of the present research was to analyse the genome of some biotypes of red rice in order to promote innovatives methods for its control. In the first year, …
