Climate change disrupts food production in many regions of the world. The accompanying extreme weather events, such as droughts, floods, heat waves, and cold snaps, pose threats to crops. concentration carbon dioxide also increases atmosphere. United Nations is implementing climate-smart agriculture initiative ensure security. An element this project involves breeding climate-resilient crops or plant cultivars with enhanced resistance unfavorable environmental conditions. Modern agriculture,...
During germination at low temperatures, seeds rich in proteins may experience damage to their cytoplasmic membranes. The study aimed investigate the influence of temperature on growth, development, and yield four cultivars soybean, a typical thermophilic species. were germinated 10, 15, 25 °C dark. After 48 h, one part was analyzed for amylase dehydrogenase activity, cell membrane permeability, vigor. other transferred into soil cultivated up yielding. Chlorophyll fluorescence, fresh (FW)...
The area of farming lands affected by increasing soil salinity is growing significantly worldwide. For this reason, breeding works are conducted to improve the tolerance important crop species. goal present study was indicate physiological or biochemical parameters characterizing three durum wheat accessions with various salinity. carried out on germinating seeds and mature plants a Polish SMH87 line, an Australian cultivar 'Tamaroi' (salt-sensitive), BC
Hormonal homeostasis plays a critical role in the regulation of microspore embryogenesis (ME). The balance between endogenous phytohormones must be altered to induce reprogramming from classical pollen-formation pathway embryogenic development, but too extensive changes may detrimental. In present study, levels auxins, cytokinins and abscisic acid were monitored anthers two Polish winter wheat F1 lines spring cultivar Pavon highly differentiated terms ME effectiveness. Analyses carried out...
Miscanthus × giganteus (Greef and Deuter ex Hodkinson Renvoize) is a perennial, rhizomatous grass that has gained significant attention as an industrial crop, particularly bioenergy feedstock. It natural interspecific hybrid with 57 chromosomes (2n = 3x 57). Due to its sterility, M. limited genetic variability, making traditional breeding methods ineffective for improvement. Consequently, alternative approaches are being explored enhance cultivation utility. The study aimed investigate the...
Seed imbibition under cold temperature is dangerous when dry seeds have relatively low water content. The aim of this study was to investigate germination 20 lines/cultivars narrow-leaf lupine at 7 °C (cold) and 13 (control) the influence smoke following seed hydropriming for 3 h °C. efficacy individual treatments examined with regard protection during low-temperature germination. Based on germination, vigour evaluated four days after sowing by means hypocotyl length, studied were divided...
Among various methods stimulating biological progress, double haploid (DH) technology, which utilizes the process of microspore embryogenesis (ME), is potentially most effective. However, depends on complex interactions between many genetic, physiological and environmental variables, in cases, e.g., winter wheat, does not operate with efficiency required for commercial use. Stress associated low-temperature treatment, isolation transfer to vitro culture has been shown disturb redox...
Common buckwheat is a valuable crop, mainly due to the beneficial chemical composition of its seeds. However, cultivation limited because unstable seed yield. The most important reasons for low yield include embryo and flower abortion. aim this work verify whether high temperature affects embryological development in plant species. experiment was conducted on plants Polish cultivar 'Panda' strain PA15, which percentage degenerating sacs previously determined amounted 32% 10%, respectively....
Abstract Androgenic responsiveness in anther (AC) and isolated microspore cultures (MC) was analysed using 15 lines of Polish winter rye ( Secale cereale L.). The effect low temperature (LT) alone or combination with osmotic stress induced by mannitol treatment (MAN) and/or reduced glutathione (GSH) on the effectiveness process studied. Interestingly, each had a different (mcs) vitality capability to divide symmetrically. first criterion for successful embryogenesis exceed threshold number...
Fusarium culmorum is a worldwide, soil-borne plant pathogen. It causes diseases of cereals, reduces their yield, and fills the grain with toxins. The main direction modern breeding to select wheat genotypes most resistant diseases. This study uses seedlings plants at anthesis stage analyze total soluble carbohydrates, cell-wall bound phenolics, chlorophyll content, antioxidant activity, hydrogen peroxide mycotoxin accumulation, visual symptoms disease, head blight index (FHBi). These results...
Abstract The effectiveness of microspore embryogenesis (ME) is determined by a complex network internal and environmental factors. In the present study on triticale barley, strong positive correlation (r = 0.85) between generation hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O ) ME confirmed important role reactive oxygen species in reprogramming. However, for high induction, intensive H had to be associated with activity antioxidative enzymes, superoxide dismutase catalase. seasonal effect physiological status...
Plant tolerance to environmental stress is determined by a very complicated network composed of many intra- and extracellular factors. The aim this study was select candidate genes involved in responses freezing drought barley on the basis previous proteomic studies analyze changes their expression caused application both Six for (namely encoding elongation factor 1 alpha (EF1A), ferredoxin-NADP reductase, 14-3-3a protein, β-fructofuranosidase, CBF2A CBF4B) six (encoding transketolase,...
Enhanced antioxidant defence plays an essential role in plant survival under stress conditions. However, excessive activity sometimes suppresses the signal necessary for initiation of desired biological reactions. One such example is microspore embryogenesis (ME)—a process embryo-like structure formation triggered by immature male gametophytes. The study focused on reactive oxygen species and triticale (×Triticosecale Wittm.) barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) reprogramming. ME was induced through...
The issue of the microbiological spoilage bakery products with an extended shelf life declared by producer was reason for searching effective solution. aim investigation to find sources infection, identify microorganisms causing product spoilage, and propose ways eliminate problem without use chemical preservatives in product. It found that dominant contaminating are yeasts genus Hyphopichia sp., Saccharomyces Candida spp., as well molds—Aspergillus spp. Penicillium quality production...
The biased ratio (1 : 2.7–1 19) of long-styled Pin and short-styled Thrum flowers (anisoplethy) in common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) with low seed set (9.8–33.1%) is documented for the first time two cultivars (Kora, Panda) strains (PA13, PA14). To establish reasons grain yield we studied pollen, embryo sacs, embryos, counted stigmas compatible pollen tubes, recorded under semi-controlled conditions open access pollinators. We also sought to improve via exogenous application eight...
Abstract Ten doubled haploid (DH) lines of winter barley with an increased range freezing/drought tolerance were used to identify phytohormones involved in plant stress acclimation. Cold hardening and drought applied at the most critical stages development on young seedlings heading plants, respectively. The level was significantly higher heading, more than 5-fold respect salicylic acid (SA) total brassinosteroids (BRs) 1.7-fold case abscisic (ABA). Moreover, spectrum detectable BRs from...
Common buckwheat is a valuable plant producing seeds containing number of health-promoting compounds and elements. Buckwheat does not contain gluten characterized by an excellent composition amino acids. This species also melliferous plant. Despite many advantages, the area cultivation decreasing due to unstable yields. One reasons for low seed yield its sensitivity drought, high temperatures, assimilate deficiencies. These factors have significant impact on nectar composition, which...
