The application of genomics technologies to medicine and biomedical research is increasing in popularity, made possible by new high-throughput genotyping sequencing improved data analysis capabilities. Some the greatest genetic diversity among humans, animals, plants, microbiota occurs Africa, yet genomic outputs from continent are limited. Human Heredity Health Africa (H3Africa) initiative was established drive development for human health through recognition critical role bioinformatics...
(L.) Skeels is an endangered plant species endemic to Morocco. In recent years, attempts develop in vitro regeneration systems for this were made. However, rooting and acclimatization of plants have been a bottleneck successful propagation. the present study, effects different concentrations auxins, putrescine, silver nitrate (AgNO
Chickpea is the third most consumed pulse and provides a kit of essential nutrients for an exponential population. High temperatures drought stress are two major abiotic stresses that cause serious effects on chickpea growth development. The comprehension stresses’ impact productivity nutritional quality will permit selection promising genotypes. current study aimed to assess heat plant growth, grain yield its components, size, in chickpea. For this purpose, 43 international genotypes were...
Understanding genetic diversity and population structure plays a vital role in the efficient use of available material plant-breeding programs germplasm conservation strategies. In present study, we aim to evaluate variations male date palms from Morocco. The 100 palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) genotypes was investigated using performance three types molecular markers: inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSRs), direct amplification minisatellite DNA (DAMD), simple (SSRs). On basis their...
Agroforestry is a promising way to sustain land use efficiency in semi-arid areas. In this study, we introduce quinoa as drought- and salinity-tolerant crop olive-based agroforestry. We investigated how the microclimate created by olive trees affects agronomic biochemical traits evaluated performance of new agroforestry system terms equivalent ratio (LER). Field experiments were carried out under two pedoclimatic conditions (S1) (S2) using randomized complete block design with cropping...
(Sapotaceae), an important endemic Moroccan oil tree, is a primary source of argan oil, which has numerous dietary and medicinal proprieties. The plant species occupies the mid-western part Morocco provides great environmental socioeconomic benefits. complete chloroplast (cp) genome
Two bulbous plant species, Squilla maura and Oncostema peruviana (Asparagaceae), show particularly interesting ornamental medicinal characteristics. Micropropagation could be a promising alternative method to accelerate their naturally slow spreading pattern. This study focused on the effects of different growth regulators culture media callus induction shoot regeneration, from which an effective protocol was established. Leaf explants were cultured Murashige Skoog (MS), MS/2, or B5 medium,...
Saffron (Crocus sativus L.) is one of the most expensive spices in world. Saffron, prized for its vibrant color, aroma, and taste, essential food industry traditional medicine. Its culinary uses, therapeutic benefits, potential antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer properties highlight significant importance. genetic diversity has implications cultivation quality. In this study, among 76 saffron accessions, collected from 13 localities Taliouin region Morocco, were evaluated using...
Thymus satureioides is an endemic and medicinal plant of Morocco, widely distributed in the arid semiarid habitats. Communally used traditional medicine. In current study, twelve Inter-Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR) primers combined with 11 agro-morphological traits were applied to evaluate 60 accessions T. collected from 10 spontaneous sites covering most geographical area. These cultivated two experimental stations Khémisset Rabat. Variation coefficient Phenotypic studied (CV) varied 2.99...
Assessing durum wheat genotypes in varied environments is essential for evaluating yield stability and adaptability. This research evaluated the performance of 25 different over three years (2020–2023) across 16 Morocco. One objective was to evaluate how interact with varying environmental conditions (GEI) identify that combine high specific mega-environments. analysis conducted using a randomized complete block design replicates. The primary criteria selection included grain yield, AMMI...
The strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo L.), grown throughout the Mediterranean, produces edible fruit; as it is easily bruised, sweet, reddish fruit used mostly to prepare jams, marmalades and alcoholic beverages. As genus paraphyletic, phytochemical analysis can assist in defining composition with species Arbutus L. (A. unedo). Here we report on carbohydrate, total sugar, protein, fat, fiber, ash, mineral content of wild fruit, harvested from 45 specimens five locations. dominant nutrients were...
The present research aims to identify the efficient combination of drought-tolerance selection criteria and associated quantitative trait loci. A panel 197 bread wheat genotypes was evaluated for yield- drought-tolerance-related traits in two environments (favorable semiarid) 2 years (2015-2016). Grain number, biomass, number fertile spikes per plant ground cover exhibited a significant correlation with grain yield constitute potential secondary under drought conditions. About 73...
Date palm, oasis pivot, plays a vital socio-economic part in the southern area of Morocco. However, with climate change and drought intensity frequency increasing, Moroccan palm grove is threatened significant genetic degradation. Genetic characterization this resource key element for development effective conservation management strategies current circumstances various biotic abiotic stresses. To evaluate diversity date populations collected from different oases, we used simple sequence...
• Premise of the study: Microsatellite loci were developed for Moroccan endemic endangered species Argania spinosa with a combination typical library enrichment procedure and 454 GS FLX Titanium–based high‐throughput sequencing approach. Methods Results: A genomic DNA was enriched further screened using (GA) 15 , (GTA) 8 (TTC) biotin‐labeled probes coupled chemi‐luminescence detection. To increase simple sequence repeat (SSR) number, an ultra‐high‐throughput sequencing‐based approach used....
Orobanche crenata represents a major biotic constraint to production of faba bean and lentil in Morocco. While this parasitic plant attacks both these crops, the extent which biotypes specialise parasitising specific crops is unknown. To address question, we studied O. that grew on different hosts quantified their host specificity lentil. The virulence populations each was investigated through field trials, pot Petri dishes assays. Genetic diversity parasite also assessed molecular...
