Molecular diversity of 40 accessions of Tibetan wild barley (TB), 10 Syrian (SY), 72 North American (NA), 36 European (EU),
9 South American (SA) and 8 Australian (AU) varieties were characterized using multiple microsatellite loci. The 42 SSR primers
amplified 278 alleles across the 175 barley accessions tested in the present study. The average gene diversity for the whole
sample was 0.3387 whereas the mean value for the each population was as follows: TB = 0.3286, SY = 0.2474, EU = 0.299, AU = 0.2867,
NA = 0.3138, SA = 0.2536. Clustering analysis based on Nei’s original genetic distance showed that the EU and NA barley populations
were grouped together. The TB population was well separated from the other 5 barley populations. Associations between microsatellite
markers and 14 quantitative traits were also investigated. Significant associations were found for 18 microsatellite marker
loci. The number of marker loci associated with each trait ranged from one (stem diameter, filled grains per plant, grain
weight per plant, length of main spike and awn length) to seven (plant height). The percentage of the total variation explained
by each marker ranged from 4.59% (HVM2 associated with plant height) to 17.48% (Bmac90 associated with density of main spike). This study provides candidate markers for further QTL mapping of these traits and
for marker-assisted selection. 相似文献

Although western wheatgrass [Pascopyrum smithii (Rydb.)] is an important perennial grass species for agriculture and conservation management in central and western North
America, its lack of adequate seed production and seedling vigor limits its effectiveness. To address the weaknesses a study
was conducted to assess rhizome spread, seed production, seed weight, germination percentage, and emergence rate of seed produced
from 48 western wheatgrass cultivars and germplasm accessions at a field site near Nephi, UT, USA during 2007 and 2008. The
western wheatgrass cultivars had approximately two times higher seed production than the germplasm accessions during both
2007 and 2008 and also had higher seed weight in 2007 and emergence rate in 2008. The germplasm accessions had higher seed
weight in 2008. For the remaining traits there were no differences among the different germplasm sources. Based on principle
component analysis a subset of cultivars and germplasm accessions with high seed production and emergence rate were identified
that could be used to produce improved cultivars and germplasms. There was little evidence of strong relationship between
geographic, genetic, and phenotypic distances among the various lines examined. Additionally, based on genetic marker data,
a subset of lines was grouped into three populations. Based on these results, selection among lines could occur to maximize
agricultural performance regardless of site of origin, or within population selection could be practiced to meet conservation
goals of minimizing hybridization among populations. 相似文献

Thickspike wheatgrass (Elymus lanceolatus [Scribn. & J.G. Sm.] Gould) is an important native perennial grass species used for rangeland revegetation in North America. Plant breeding efforts relying on space‐plant evaluations have resulted in limited improvement in this species. The purpose of this study was to characterize the performance of thickspike wheatgrass half‐sib families under space‐plant and sward plot evaluations, estimate the correlation between measured traits in both evaluation settings, and determine the validity of selecting thickspike wheatgrass for rangeland revegetation in the nontarget environment space‐plant plots. The study included 50 thickspike wheatgrass half‐sib families and five commercial cultivars and experimental populations which were evaluated over 3 years in space‐plant and sward plot evaluations at a field site in Box Elder County, Utah, USA. Collected data included stand percentage, flag leaf height, and herbage dry mass. Narrow‐sense heritability estimates were low to moderate (h2 < 0.60) and Spearman and genetic correlation estimates among traits were also generally low to moderate. Overall, there was little evidence to suggest the use space‐plant evaluations in thickspike wheatgrass improvement programmes. 相似文献

Isatis tinctoria L. was cultivated until the 19th century to produce indigo, a natural blue pigment used principally for dyestuffs. The current
search for alternative crops and interest in natural products has led to reconsidering I. tinctoria as a crop to be grown in marginal areas to produce natural indigo. To reintroduce I. tinctoria into cultivation, its behaviour under different climatic conditions as well as its morpho-physiological and genetic diversity
must be assessed in order to evaluate the possibilities of future breeding work. To do this, a Eurasian collection of 15 accessions
was studied in a 2-year experiment. The study was carried out in four locations in order to assess plant performance at altitudes
ranging from 380 to 1,700 m a.s.l. A second experiment evaluated the morpho-physiological diversity of several traits (some
related to agronomic performances) of the collection. In a third experiment the genetic traits of the collection were characterised
by using eight AFLP and eight SAMPL markers. The species showed a wide adaptability to different mountainous conditions and
the populations showed high morphologic and genetic variability and differed according to their origins. Both morpho-physiological
and molecular characterisation allowed the accessions to be distinguished into groups of European and Asian origin. Future
breeding work is recommended because some accessions have good agronomic potential.

Late blight (LB), caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans, is one of the most devastating diseases of the cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) worldwide. Most commercial cultivars of tomato are susceptible to LB. Previously, three major LB resistance genes (Ph‐1, Ph‐2, Ph‐3) were identified and incorporated into a few commercial cultivars of tomato. Reduced effectiveness and potential breakdown of the resistance genes has necessitated identification, characterization and utilization of new sources of resistance. We evaluated the response of 67 accessions of the wild tomato species, S. pimpinellifolium to LB, under multiple field and greenhouse (GH) conditions and compared them with six control genotypes. Sixteen accessions were identified with strong LB resistance in both field and GH experiments. However, 12 accessions exhibited resistance similar to a control line which was homozygous for Ph‐2 + Ph‐3. Genotyping accessions with molecular markers for Ph‐2 and Ph‐3 were not conclusive, indicating that resistance in these accessions could be due to these or other resistance genes. Strong correlations were observed between field and GH disease response and between foliar and stem infection. 相似文献

Summary Genetic relationships of condensed tannins (CT) with other forage quality parameters have not been adequately studied in birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.). The objectives were to bidirectionally select for CT concentration in birdsfoot trefoil to determine selection response and to create populations for examination of genetic relationships of CT with forage quality parameters, principally lignin. High-and low-tannin parental clones were selected from NC-83 birdsfoot trefoil germplasm and intercrossed to produce Syn1 populations. Herbage samples, harvested for two years at two locations, were analyzed from high-tannin, low-tannin, and parental populations for CT concentration, herbage yield, and forage quality parameters. The mean condensed tannin concentrations in the high-and low-tannin populations were 69.3±0.8 and 21.1±0.8 g catechin equivalent (CE) kg-1 dry matter (DM) compared with 36.4±0.8 g CE kg-1 DM in the parental population. The selection response exhibited a quadratic relationship, with selection for increased CT concentration more effective than for reduced CT concentration. Compared with the parental population, acid detergent lignin (ADL) was higher, and crude protein (CP) and in vitro digestible dry matter (IVDDM) concentrations were lower for the high-tannin population and the converse was true for the low-tannin population. Lignin concentration was positively correlated with CT concentration (rg=0.66 P0.01).Abbreviations ADF

Brachiaria humidicola is a tropical grass that grows in seasonally swampy grasslands in Africa. In Brazil, two apomictic cultivars (2n = 54) of this species are widely used as pastures in poorly drained soils. The recent discovery of a sexual polyploid accession
(2n = 36) in the germplasm collection at the Embrapa Beef Cattle Research Center allowed intraspecific hybridization with the
objective of broadening the genetic variability and selection of superior genotypes in this species. Hybridization, however,
depends on accessions with the same ploidy level. Cytological analyses of 55 accessions revealed that 19 apomictic accessions
also presented 2n = 36 chromosomes. Chromosome pairing in hexavalent association at diakinesis and metaphase I suggested that the basic chromosome
number for this species is x = 6. Cytological analysis revealed abnormalities in variable frequencies in the meiosis of these hexaploid (2n = 6x = 36) accessions. The most common were those related to irregular chromosome segregation which led to unbalanced gamete formation,
but chromosome stickiness was also recorded. These results clearly demonstrate the value of cytogenetics in the choice of
genitors and for superior hybrids to be obtained in the breeding of this species. For that both the ploidy level and the frequency
of abnormalities need to be considered, besides other favorable agronomic characteristics. 相似文献

Sexuality is correlated with diploidy and apomixis with polyploidy in the Brachiaria genus. Brachiaria ruziziensis is a key species in Brachiaria breeding due to its obligate sexuality and intrinsic agronomic qualities. Interspecific crosses in the genus became feasible
only when a few diploid accessions of B. ruziziensis were artificially tetraploidized and remained sexual. Hybridization has been done since, using natural tetraploid apomictic
accessions of B. brizantha or B. decumbens as pollen donors. Twenty two accessions of B.
ruziziensis from the Embrapa Beef Cattle germplasm collection (Campo Grande, MS, Brazil) were cytologically analyzed: 16 are natural
diploids (2n = 2x = 18) and six are artificially induced tetraploids (2n = 4x = 36). The meiotic behavior in the 16 diploid accessions varied. The mean of meiotic abnormalities per accession ranged from
zero to 24.46%. Meiotic behavior in the induced tetraploid accessions also varied with the mean of meiotic abnormalities ranging
from 5.20% to 54.71%. The most common abnormalities observed in both the diploid and the tetraploid accessions, were those
related to irregular chromosome segregation. In one tetraploid accession, with a high frequency of those, other irregularities
involving chromosome orientation at metaphase plate and chromosome convergence to the poles, a meiotic mutation known as divergent spindle, were recorded. Meiotic behavior should be considered in selecting potential genitors for breeding. 相似文献

Molecular marker technologies may provide a tool to overcome the forage yield plateau in timothy (Phleum pratense L.). Therefore, a study was designed to investigate the relationship between marker‐based genetic distance (GD) estimates and yield. Genetic distances were estimated using Dice coefficients framed by 28 simple sequence repeat markers. In Experiment 1, parents with high general combining ability (GCA) from two contrasting first‐generation synthetic strains (exhibiting high and low yields) were compared. Average GDs of each strain were 0.74 (high) and 0.68 (low). These differences indicated that GD may be partially the basis for contrasting yields. In Experiment 2, GDs among 40 parents of a polycross were used for calculating general genetic distance (GGD), which is indicative of their allelic complementation. Analyses revealed a significant (P < 0.01) moderate correlation (r) between GGD and GCA for yield (r = 0.45) and a significant (P < 0.01) residual mean square for the regression of yield on GGD, suggesting that considerable non‐additive effects were associated with GCA. The results are indicative of the potential use of GD estimation for yield improvement in timothy. 相似文献

The genus Amaranthus has gained much attention, particularly for its high economic and nutritional value. It is a genus of taxonomic complexity with many interspecific hybrids. For effective conservation and management of the germplasm collected, the development of a core set of accessions is especially important. A core set of 63 accessions was successfully developed from an entire collection of 634 accessions using the powercore 1.0. Among the tested methods for developing the core set – the advanced M strategy using the modified heuristic method (HCC), randomly chosen collections and stratified random collections – HCC was found to be best, with 100% coverage of alleles and minimum redundancy. Allele frequency distribution of the core set developed with HCC was highly correlated with that of entire collections (r = 0.91). Model‐based structure analysis revealed the presence of three subpopulations and 11 admixtures in the selected core set, which is basically consistent with clustering based on the genetic distance. The results from this study will provide effective information for future germplasm conservation and improvement programmes in Amaranthus. 相似文献

Cattle production based on natural pastures is often subject to flooding periods, which affect plant performance and as a result, forage production. Although most forage legumes are not tolerant to flooding, Lotus spp. are outstanding alternatives, since species, such as L. tenuis (Lt) and L. corniculatus (LcT), have high forage quality and are adaptable to different environments. We recently obtained a L. tenuis × L. corniculatus hybrid (LtxLc) with potential new cultivar traits, although its tolerance to flooding stress has not yet been evaluated. In the present study, the performance of LtxLc, its parental diploid accessions, the model legume L. japonicus and tetraploid LcT were evaluated under 55 days of partial submergence stress and a 35‐day recovery period. Physiological, morphological and anatomical traits were analysed, showing that tolerance to partial submergence was positively associated with aerenchyma and adventitious root formation and relative growth rates. Overall, Lt and LtxLc showed the best responses under stress and during the recovery period. Nevertheless, the higher forage value of LtxLc makes it recommendable for use in environments affected by flooding. Our results could be used as breeding criteria for the generation of new cultivars tolerant to partial submergence stress. 相似文献

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used to characterize genetic relationships
among 46 accessions in two C. melo L. subsp. melo (Cantalupensis, Inodorus) and subsp.agrestis (Conomon, and Flexuosus) groups. Genetic distance (GD) estimates were made among and between accessions in four melon market
classes [Galia, Ogen, Charentais, and Shipper (European and U.S. types)] of Cantalupensis, one market class of Inodorus (Cassaba
and Honey Dew), one accession of Conomon, and one accession of Flexuosus by employing three GD estimators; simple matching
coefficient, Jaccard's coefficient, and Nei's distance-D. Differences detected among 135 RAPD bands and 54 SSR bands (products
of 17 SSR primers) were used to calculate GD. Band polymorphisms observed with 21 RAPD primers and 7 SSR primers were important
(p =0.01) in the detection of genetic differences. Estimators of GD were highly correlated (p 0.0001; rs = 0.64 to0.99) when comparisons were made between estimation methods within a particular marker system. Lower correlations
(rs = 0.17 to 0.40) were detected (P > 0.001) between marker systems using any one estimator. The GD of the Conomon and Flexuosus
accessions was significantly different (p> 0.001)from the mean GD of all the market classes examined. The mean GD (Jaccard's coefficient) among accessions of Ogen,
Galia, Cassaba, Charentais, European shipper, and U.S. shipper groups was 0.11 ± 0.04, 0.33± 0.09, 0.21 ± 0.04, 0.26 ± 0.10,
0.17± 0.05 and 0.22 ± 0.08, respectively. Market classes were distinct (p > 0.001), such that GDs between Galia and other accessions were the largest(mean GD 0.34 to 0.35), and GDs between Ogen and
other accessions were the smallest (mean GD 0.29 to 0.30). Contrasts between the U.S. shipper cultivar Top Mark and accessions
within any market class was relatively large (mean GD = 0.42 ± 0.06). Empirical estimations of variances associated with each
marker type in the accessions examined indicated that, per band, lower coefficients of variation can be attained in the estimation
of GD when using RAPDs compared to SSRs. Nevertheless, the genetic relationships identified using these markers were generally
similar. The disparity between the analyses of the two markers made may be related to the amount of genome coverage which
is characteristic of a particular marker system and/or its efficiency in sampling variation in a population. Results of RAPD
marker analysis suggest that 80 marker bands were adequate for assessing the genetic variation present in the accessions examined.

Stem cellulose and lignin concentrations are major determining factors of alfalfa (Medicago sativa ssp. sativa L.) forage quality. Only limited information is available on the genetic variability and the influence of environmental effects on these two stem-quality traits. Our objectives were to: evaluate the variability for stem cellulose and lignin concentrations in modern alfalfa germplasms across several harvests; observe the environmental stability of these two quality traits in 32 alfalfa clones selected high or low for either stem cellulose or lignin concentration; and examine the relationships between these two stem-quality traits and leaf and stem crude protein (CP). Fifty alfalfa entries (cultivars and experimental populations) were established May 1993, and sampled for stem acid-detergent lignin (ADL), stem acid-detergent cellulose (ADC), and stem CP on Sep 1993, June and Aug 1994. Clones were vegetatively propagated from individual plants selected for extremes in stem ADL and ADC and transplanted into blocks at two locations in May 1994 and sampled for quality analysis in September 1994. For all samples, leaves were hand-separated from stems and stem ADL, ADC, CP and leaf CP concentration were determined using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy. Entry differences for stem ADL and ADC were detected only at the June 1994 harvest date in the cultivar study. Spearman's ranked correlations over years in the clonal study demonstrated greater environmental stability for stem ADC (r = 0.70, P ≥ 0.01) than for stem ADL (r = 0.54, P # 0.05). Environmental effects had an impact on both traits, but stem ADC showed greater potential for improving forage quality. Simple correlations showed that decreasing stem ADL or ADC would have minimal effect on leaf CP and may increase stem CP. 相似文献

The development of transgenic oilseed Camelina sativa (2n = 40) and the potential for hybridization with its weedy relative Capsella bursa‐pastoris (2n = 36) necessitates a careful evaluation of the reproductive compatibility between the species. Here, we conducted over 1800 crosses (emasculation and manual pollination) to examine the ability of 10 Canadian C. bursa‐pastoris (♀) accessions to hybridize with five accessions of C. sativa (♂). Seven hybrids were confirmed among 586 putative hybrids screened with species‐specific markers, indicating a hybridization rate of 1.5 hybrids per 10 000 ovules pollinated. All seven hybrids had intermediate DNA content compared to their parents, were morphologically distinct, had low (1.9%) pollen fertility and failed to produce selfed or backcrossed seed. Given the abundance of C. bursa‐pastoris along field margins, hybrids will likely be generated in the wild, but they will be unable to establish lineages unless fertility is restored. The large number of crosses and the diversity captured by the use of multiple accessions resulted in strong statistical power and a high degree of confidence in the estimated hybridization rate. 相似文献

Portugal has a diverse common bean germplasm, which is still grown in farmers' fields. In this work, we searched for resistance to rust (Uromyces appendiculatus) and powdery mildew (Erysiphe diffusa) in a representative collection of the Portuguese common bean germplasm. Despite many accessions depicting intermediate levels of resistance when compared to the susceptible check, 24 and 13 accessions showed low levels of infection, in spite of a compatible interaction (disease severity (DS) values lower than 5% and infection type (IT) of 4), to rust and powdery mildew, respectively, indicative of partial resistance. Moreover, a resistant reaction was observed in 11 accessions when inoculated with powdery mildew (IT = 0–1) and in additional 11 accessions (one in common) when inoculated with rust (IT = 0–2). The levels of resistance found in this report anticipate great potential of the Portuguese national germplasm, recently reported as genetically closer to the Andean common bean gene pool, for disease resistance breeding of this important crop. 相似文献

In order to determine genetically diverse parents for the generation of mapping populations segregating for resistance to
ascochyta blight in wild Cicer species, the genetic diversity between a selection of resistant and susceptible accessions was assessed using molecular markers.
Twenty Cicer accessions — comprising eight C. reticulatum accessions, six C. echinospermum accessions, five C. bijugum accessions, and one C. arietinum accession — were compared using a combination of seven RAPD primers and seven ISSR primers. A total of 231 polymorphic bands
were scored and used to determine the genetic distances between accessions using Jaccard similarity coefficients. The most
genetically diverse parents for the generation of intraspecific and interspecific populations segregating for resistance to
ascochyta blight are reported.

A set of 22 pearl millet inbred lines including the parents of eleven mapping populations, was screened with 627 markers including
100 pearl millet genomic SSRs (gSSRs), 60 pearl millet EST-SSRs (eSSRs), 410 intron sequence haplotypes (ISHs), and 57 exon
sequence haplotypes (ESHs). In all, 267 (59%) of the markers were informative for at least one of the 11 mapping populations,
which segregate for traits like drought and salinity tolerance; host plant resistance to downy mildew, rust and blast; fertility
restoration and sterility and maintenance of cytoplasmic male sterility etc. An average of 116 polymorphic markers was identified
per mapping population. The average PIC values and number of profiles (P) per polymorphic marker were: gSSRs (PIC = 0.62, P = 6.1), ISHs (PIC = 0.39, P = 2.6), eSSRs (PIC = 0.36, P = 3.1) and ESHs (PIC = 0.35, P = 3.1). A high correlation (r > 0.97, P < 0.05) was observed between the patterns of diversity exposed by the different marker systems. The polymorphic markers identified
are suitable for the de novo construction, or the supplementation of pearl millet linkage maps. The genetic relationships identified among the panel of
inbred lines may be useful in designing strategies to improve the use of available genetic variation in the context of pearl
millet breeding. 相似文献

Heterosis and heritability in crosses among Asian and Ethiopian parents of hot pepper genotypes 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Hot pepper is the most important worldwide grown and consumed spice and vegetable crop. Though hybrid breeding has been proposed
for genetic improvement in the crop, but there is lack of information on heterosis in crosses among crop genotypes in Ethiopia.
Twelve genotypes (nine Asian and three Ethiopian parents) of hot pepper were crossed in 2003 cropping season in a half-diallel
fashion to fit Griffing’s fixed effect model analysis. An open field experiment was conducted in 2004/2005 to investigate
heterosis for fourteen traits in 66 F1 hybrids grown together with their 12 selfed parents. Highly significant genotypic differences were observed for all the traits
except for leaf area. Variance component due to specific combining ability (dominance) were larger than that due to general
combining ability (additive) for each of the studied traits with few exceptions. Broad sense heritability (H
b2) for fruit traits were more than 60% and with wide gap from narrow sense heritability (h
n2) for most of the important traits like number of fruit per plant (H
b2 = 88.3% and h
n2 = 46.0%), days to maturity (H
b2 = 87.2% and h
n2 = 23.1%) and dry fruit yield per plant (H
b2 = 72.6% and h
n2 = 14.6%). Maximum heterosis over mid-parent and better-parent, and economic superiority of hybrid over standard check were
recorded, respectively for dry fruit yield per plant (163.8, 161.8 and 92.1%), number of fruits per plant (104.4, 79.6 and
136.4%) and days to maturity (−29.8, −31.5 and −23.6%). These observations suggested a possibility of utilizing dominance
genetic potentiality available in diverse genotypes of the crop by heterosis breeding for improving hot pepper to the extent
of better economic return compared to the current commercial cultivar under production in the country. Low narrow sense versus
very high broad sense heritability for days to maturity and dry fruit yield per plant could be a sign for achievability of
earliness and high fruit yield using heterosis in hot pepper. The maximum heterobeltiosis were recorded either from F1s obtained from Ethiopian and Asian crosses or from within Asian crosses, suggesting the possibility of maximizing heterosis
by considering genetically diverse parental genotypes. The manifestation of highest heterosis in hybrids from among Asian
lines indicated existence of genetic diversity among Asian genotypes and the potentiality for improvement of hot pepper using
genotypes from different regions of the world along with elite inbred lines from local cultivars. 相似文献

This study was conducted to assess regional patterns of diversity of Ethiopian tetraploid wheat accessions and to identify areas of diversity that can be used as source of new germplasm for developing high yielding and stable varieties. A collection of 133 Ethiopian tetraploid wheat accessions and eight introduced cultivars was analysed using 29 wheat microsatellite markers. A total of 383 alleles were detected with an average value of 13.14 alleles per locus. Relatively more alleles were observed in the B genome than in the A genome. Gene diversity indices ranged from 0.08 to 0.95, with a mean value of 0.72. Accessions collected from the same region were pooled and the number of alleles and gene diversity were calculated over the 29 simple sequence repeats for each region. Higher numbers of alleles were detected in the Shewa region (8.72), followed by Tigray (5.86) and Hararghe (5.76). The highest average gene diversity value was found in Shewa (0.65), followed by Gondar (0.64). No significant correlation was observed between geographic distance and genetic distance. Out of 383 different alleles detected, 93 (24.4%) were observed to be region‐specific. Region‐specific alleles were found across all chromosomes except for Xgwm752, Xgwm155 and Xgwm148. Genetic similarity coefficients were estimated for all the possible 55 pairs of regional comparisons and they ranged from 0.16 to 0.52, with a mean value of 0.50. All provinces were differentiated in the UPGMA cluster diagram. 相似文献

The genetic diversity of melon market types (Cucumis melo L., 2n = 2x = 24) in China, an important secondary center of diversity, has not been examined. Therefore, reference accessions
from India and Africa, Crete/Greece, Japan, Europe, U.S.A., Spain, and 68 Chinese cultigens (fresh-market non-netted thin-skinned;
non-netted thick-skinned; netted thick-skinned; and non-netted thin-skinned, and vegetable) were evaluated by using 17 10-mer
RAPD primers (32 mapped loci), days to flower, sex expression, lateral-branch number, and fruit number and weight per plant.
While Chinese thin-skinned melons differed from vegetable melon types only in sex expression, the U.S. Western Shipping market
type reference accession “Top Mark” and Chinese thick-skinned melons were similar for all of the morphological traits examined.
The average similarity (Jaccard Coefficient) between any two pairs of accessions examined as estimated by RAPD variation was
0.47 ± 0.14. Within-group genetic similarities ranged between 0.94 (thin-skinned type) and 0.08 (non-netted thick-skinned
type). The average/standard deviation, maximum, and minimum similarity between any two Chinese reference accessions was 0.41 ± 0.13,
0.75, and 0.12, respectively. Cluster analysis partitioned accessions into two main branches consisting of Group Cantalupensis
and Inodorus reference accessions (clade 1) and Chinese accessions (clade 2). A second cluster analysis partitioned China,
India, and Africa accessions into one major group, and accessions from Japan, Europe, and U.S.A. into another. Results indicate
that Chinese accessions are a rich source of genetic diversity for plant improvement, and that molecular assessments support
previously described theoretical melon domestication patterns constructed from historical and archeological evidence. 相似文献
