The hemibiotrophic pathogens Moniliophthora perniciosa (witches' broom disease) and roreri (frosty pod rot are among the most important of cacao. has a broad host range infects variety meristematic tissues in cacao plants, whereas M. only pods Theobroma Herrania genera. Comparative pathogenomics these fungi is essential to understand infection strategies, therefore detection silico functional characterization effector candidates steps gain insight on their pathogenicity.Candidate secreted...
Cacao cultivation is an important economic and social activity for tropical regions worldwide. Elevated cadmium (Cd) concentrations in soil cacao beans have become a serious concern producers consumers, particularly following the implementation of stricter Cd limits products European Union since 2019. Cadmium potentially toxic element that can bioaccumulate different plant tissues, raising concerns about future exports posing significant threat to food chain through consuming with high...
Doubled haploid technology has been used by various private companies.However, information regarding chromosome duplication methodologies, particularly those concerning techniques to identify in cells, is limited.Thus, we analyzed and characterized artificially doubled haploids using microsatellites molecular markers, pollen viability, flow cytometry techniques.Evaluated material was obtained two different protocols maize seeds considered haploids, resulting from the cross between inducer...
This study aimed to investigate the role of Se supply in improving osmotic stress tolerance coffee seedlings while also evaluating best timing for application. Five times foliar application were assessed during induced with PEG-6000 using day imposing as a default, plus two control treatments: and without Se, Se. Results demonstrated that (OS) promoted mild plants (ψw from −1.5MPa −2.5 MPa). Control under showed seven five lower activity enzymes GR SOD compared non-stressed ones, OS was...
Drought stress has been considered a major problem in coffee crops, and the higher occurrence of unpredictable environmental events highlighted vulnerability agricultural systems. Several reports have indicated selenium (Se) as plant biostimulant against stress, including drought. The effects Se plants are related to modulation enzymatic activity, energetics osmoprotectants content, nutrient balance plants. However, investi-gating effective time application is crucial for better...
Thirty progenies of the Cacao Research Center's (Cepec) cacao breeding program were submitted to water restriction and evaluated for survival, height, stomatal density, relative content (RWC) parameters related pressure-volume curve under greenhouse conditions.Drought caused an average 120% reduction in potential, a decrease RWC survival some progenies.A high capacity was observed clones CP-309 CP-300 characterizing resistance severe drought conditions.Furthermore, these showed lower losses...
