Broadening the genetic base of crops is crucial for developing varieties to respond global agricultural challenges such as climate change. Here, we analysed a diverse panel 371 domesticated lines model crop barley explore genetics adaptation. We first collected exome sequence data and phenotypes key life history traits from contrasting multi-environment common garden trials. Then applied refined statistical methods, including some based on exomic haplotype states, genotype-by-environment...
In the context of plant breeding, high-throughput phenotyping is an assessment phenotypes on a scale and with level speed precision not achievable traditional methods, through application emerging technologies such as automation robotics, new sensors, imaging (hardware software). present work, high-resolution digital images have been acquired unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) prototype platform experimental barley field. Six vegetation indices generated from red–green–blue near-infrared-based...
Exome sequencing-based allele mining for frost tolerance suggests HvCBF14 rather than CNV at Fr-H2 locus is the main responsible of in barley. Wild relatives, landraces and old cultivars barley represent a reservoir untapped potentially important genes crop improvement, recent sequencing technologies provide opportunity to mine existing genetic diversity identify new genes/alleles traits interest. In present study, we use vernalization requirement as case studies demonstrate power carried...
In cereals with hollow internodes, lodging resistance is influenced by morphological characteristics such as internode diameter and culm wall thickness. Despite their relevance, knowledge of the genetic control these traits relationship lacking in temperate barley. To fill this gap, we developed an image analysis-based protocol to accurately phenotype diameters thickness across 261 barley accessions. Analysis trait data collected from field trials seven different environments revealed high...
As key players in biotic stress response of plants, jasmonic acid (JA) and its derivatives cover a specific prominent role pathogens-mediated signaling hence are promising candidates for sustainable management phytopathogenic fungi. Recently, JA directed antimicrobial effects on plant pathogens has been suggested, supporting the theory oxylipins as double gamers plant-pathogen interaction. Based these premises, six (dihydrojasmone cis-jasmone, two thiosemicarbazonic their corresponding...
A pillar of wine authenticity is the variety/ies used. Ampelographic descriptors and SSR markers, included in several national international databases, are extensively used for varietal identification purposes. Recently, SNP markers have been proposed as useful grape traceability. Our study has directed toward development a molecular toolbox able to track varieties from nursery must. Two complementary approaches were developed, exploiting with two different technologies, i.e.,...
Pyrenophora graminea is the seed-borne pathogen causal agent of barley leaf stripe disease. In this work, we screened a collection 206 spring two-row cultivars from Europe for their resistance to fungal pathogen. Artificial inoculation with highly virulent isolate Dg2 revealed continuous variation incidence infection, few resistant or susceptible genotypes. On average, old showed higher than more modern ones. Genome-Wide Association Scan was performed by exploiting available molecular data...
Multi-parent Advanced Generation Inter-crosses (MAGIC) lines have mosaic genomes that are generated shuffling the genetic material of founder parents following pre-defined crossing schemes. In cereal crops, these experimental populations been extensively used to investigate bases several traits and dissect epistasis. plants, genomic prediction models usually fitted using either diverse panels mostly unrelated accessions or individuals biparental families empirical analyses conducted evaluate...
Control methods alternative to synthetic pesticides are among the priorities for both organic and conventional farming systems. Plants potential sources of compounds with antimicrobial properties. In this study, antifungal potentialities saponins derived from Medicago species oat grains brassica sprouts have been explored control Verticillium dahliae, a widely distributed fungal pathogen that causes vascular wilt disease on over 200 plant species. All tested extracts showed Such compounds,...
Abstract This study contributes new knowledge on quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and candidate genes for adaptive traits yield in two-rowed spring barley. A meta-analysis of a network field trials, varying latitude sowing date, with 151 cultivars across several European countries, increased QTL detection power compared to single-trial analyses. The analysed were heading date (HD), plant height (PH), thousand-grain weight (TGW), grain (GY). Breaking down the analysis by main...
