The small leaved white cross berry (Grewia tenax [Forssk.] Fiori) is a fruit-producing deciduous shrub or small tree of widespread occurrence in semi-arid and sub-humid tropical
climates. Despite its well-recognized potential and high prices on local markets, there are no commercial plantations in Sudan.
Wild plants have continuously been used to meet the growing commercial demand for their fruits. Recently, there has been an
increased interest in finding alternative, potentially high-value cash crops to improve the income of small farmers who are
currently depending upon growing and selling millet (Pennisetum glaucum [L.] R. Br.), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor [L.] Moench), sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), and groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.). G. tenax has often been cited as a prime candidate for domestication as a useful horticultural plant. One major factor hampering this
development is the limited and scattered knowledge available on this species. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the
importance of G. tenax by providing information on its botanical and horticultural characteristics in the effort to promote its domestication and
commercialization for regional and global markets. 相似文献

Total 65 lotus accessions in genus Nelumbo mainly collected from China, were subjected to random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers to estimate the genetic diversity
and to test the genetic basis of the relationships between morphotypes and molecular markers. Seventeen primers generated
a total of 195 highly reproducible and discernible loci, among which 173 were polymorphic. Percent polymorphism varied from
66.7 to 100 with an average of 88.72, and five primers out of them, OPC05, OPG10, OPN20, OPP09 and OPS17, showed 100% polymorphism.
A relatively high genetic diversity was detected among all the samples with the similarity coefficient values ranging from
0.45 to 0.85, and Nei’s gene diversity (h) 0.30, and Shannon index (I) 0.46. The UPGMA dendrogram clustered 65 accessions in four clusters and the clustering pattern showed two groups, N. nucifera ssp. nucifera and those accessions related to the American lotus, and some special cultivars, landraces, hybrids and the American lotus.
Principal Coordinate Analysis (PCA) further indicated that the genetic diversity of Nelumbo accessions was not evenly distributed, instead, was presented by a clustered distribution pattern. Similar to the results
revealed by the dendrogram, two main groups representing the two subspecies of N. nucifera, as well as some special landraces, cultivars of Chinese lotus, the Japanese lotus and hybrids out of the two groups were
obtained. Neither the UPGMA dendrogram nor the PCA analysis exhibited strict relationship with geographic distribution and
morphotypes among the accessions. 相似文献

Pueraria montana var. lobata and P. phaseoloides originating from tropical Asia and parts of Oceania are ecologically and economically important legumes that are used as
green manure, cover crop or forage plants. Conservation and use of plant genetic resources require an understanding of the
extent and distribution of genetic diversity in any given region. In this study, genetic variation of five P. montana var. lobata and 16 P. phaseoloides accessions was analysed developing a random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) marker methodology for Pueraria species and thereby creating basic data for follow-up research and the development of conservation strategies. Seeds were
collected from native populations in Bac Kan Province, a mountainous region in Northeast Vietnam. P. montana var. lobata presented a high level of variation with 54.3% of the detected markers being polymorphic, whereas P. phaseoloides exhibited an intermediate to high level of variation (45.5%). The P. montana var. lobata accessions clustered in congruence with their eco-geographical origin. For P. phaseoloides no correspondence between sampling sites and genetic differentiation was found. Inter-population differentiation was measured
as Jaccard's similarity coefficient (JSC). Mean JSC amounted to 0.35 in P. montana var. lobata and 0.52 in P. phaseoloides. Results are compared to other genetic studies of herbaceous legumes and conservation strategies are suggested. 相似文献

The genus Nicotiana is a member of the nightshade (Solanaceae) family, and is comprised of 70 currently recognized, naturally occurring species.
Genetic variability within N. tabacum L., the species of primary economic importance, was likely affected by several genetic bottlenecks. Nicotiana tabacum is a classic amphidiploid that arose after chance interspecific hybridization between N. sylvestris Spegazinni et Comes and a member of section Tomentosae, likely N. tomentosiformis Goodspeed, N. otophora Grisebach, or an introgressive hybrid between the two. Only a fraction of the genetic variability that existed in the diploid
progenitor gene pools probably entered into N. tabacum. Genetic drift, coupled with natural and human selection, subsequently resulted in the formation of narrow genetic pools
corresponding to modern commercial market classes. Genetic variability in Nicotiana has gained increased attention in recent years because of investment in Nicotiana genomics research, interest in development of tobacco products with reduced harm characteristics, and concentration on using
Nicotiana species for plant-based production of commercially useful proteins. A storehouse of genetic diversity for N. tabacum is available in approximately 1,900 accessions maintained by the United States Nicotiana Germplasm Collection. Seeds of 224 accessions representing 59 wild Nicotiana species are also maintained. The collection is currently maintained by North Carolina State University and is part of the
United States National Plant Germplasm System (NPGS). The collection’s curator satisfies hundreds of seed requests made annually
by scientists using Nicotiana germplasm for basic biological investigations and by researchers in the area of applied tobacco science. 相似文献

Pineapple (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.) cultivars, often derived from somatic mutations, are propagated vegetatively. It has been suggested by isozyme data that there is little genetic variation among Smooth Cayenne cultivars. A thorough investigation of the genetic variation within the cultivated speciesAnanas comosus, particularly among commercial cultivars, will provide critical information needed for crop improvement and cultivar protection. One-hundred and forty-eight accessions ofA. comosus and 14 accessions of related species were evaluated with AFLP markers. The average genetic similarity ofA. comosus was 0.735 ranging from 0.549 to 0.972, suggesting a high degree of genetic variation within this species. With AFLP markers, discrete DNA fingerprints were detected for each commercial cultivar, breeding line, and intra-specific hybrid. Self-incompatibility, high levels of somatic mutation, and intraspecific hybridization may account for this high degree of variation. However, major cultivar groups of pineapple, such as Cayenne, Spanish, and Queen, could not be distinctively separated. These cultivar groups are based on morphological similarity, and the similar appearance can be caused by a few mutations that occurred on different genetic background. Our results suggest that there is abundant genetic variation within existing pineapple germplasm for selection, and discrete DNA fingerprinting patterns for commercial cultivars can be detected for cultivar protection. The genetic diversity and relationships of fourAnanas species are also discussed. 相似文献

In a general study of banana passion fruit genetic resources, diversity was analyzed in the two main cultigens, P. tripartita
var. mollissima and P. tarminiana, and their closest wild relative, P. mixta, scoring isozyme bands (IDH,PGM,ACP,PGD,DIA,andPRX)
on288 plants from 31 accessions. Polymorphismandallelic richness, Nei diversity indices, and neighbor joining clustering showed
that variation was poor in the cultigens in northern and central Colombia, while P. mixta appeared much more polymorphic.
The populations of P. tripartita var. mollissima and P. mixta from southern Colombia and Ecuador show higher diversity values
and are clearly differentiated from those of central and northern Colombia. This geographic component of variation is even
stronger than the interspecific one, which suggests a close relation and a regular gene flow between these two species. In
contrast, all the accessions of P. tarminiana constitute a clearly differentiated group, even if some introgression with P.
tripartita var. mollissima is also suspected. The high variation observed in the southern region indicates the proximity of
a center of diversity for banana passion fruit and collecting in Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia is recommended. The high diversity
of P. mixta and the evidence of gene flow with P. tripartita var. mollissima constitute a favorable context for the implementation
of in situ conservation strategies. 相似文献

Diversity among 36 snapmelon landraces, collected from 2 agro-ecological regions of India (9 agro-climatic sub-regions), was
assayed using RAPD primers, morphological traits of plant habit and fruit, 2 yield-associated traits, pest and disease resistance
and biochemical composition (TSS, ascorbic acid, titrable acidity). Typical differences among accessions were observed in
plant and fruit characteristics and snapmelon germplasm with high titrable acidity and possessing resistance to downy mildew,
Cucumber mosaic virus, Zucchini yellow mosaic virus, Papaya ringspot virus, Aphis gossypii and Meloidogyne incognita was noticed in the collection. RAPD based grouping analysis revealed that Indian snapmelon was rich in genetic variation
and region and sub-region approach should be followed across India for acquisition of additional melon landraces. Accessions
of var. agrestis and var. momordica clustered together and there was a separate cluster of the accessions of var. reticulatus. Comparative analysis of the genetic variability among Indian snapmelons and an array of previously characterized reference
accessions of melon from Spain, Israel, Korea, Japan, Maldives, Iraq, Pakistan and India using SSRs showed that Indian snapmelon
germplasm contained a high degree of unique genetic variability which was needed to be preserved to broaden the genetic base
of melon germplasm available with the scientific community.

A comprehensive characterization of crop germplasm is critical to the optimal improvement of the quality and productivity
of crops. Genetic relationships and variability were evaluated among 63 durum wheat landraces from the Mediterranean basin
using amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs) and microsatellites markers. The genetic diversity indices found were
comparable to those of other crop species, with average polymorphism information content (PIC) values of 0.24 and 0.70 for
AFLP and microsatellites, respectively. The mean number of alleles observed for the microsatellites loci was 9.15. Non-metric
multi-dimensional scaling clustered the accessions according to their geographical origin with the landraces from the South
shore of the Mediterranean Sea closely related. The results support two dispersal patterns of durum wheat in the Mediterranean
basin, one through its north side and a second one through its south side. 相似文献

An overview of ex situ collections of cultivated flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) and 53 other species of the genus Linum L. is presented. The names of 33 genebanks in 23 countries preserving Linum germplasm and the species preserved at these places are provided. World genebanks engage in ex situ preservation of about
48,000 accessions of cultivated flax (Linum usitatissimum). However, possibly only 10,000 accessions of these are unique. Of the ca. 200 species of the genus Linum, other than L. usitatissimum, 53 are reported to be represented in the world’s ex situ collections with a total of about 900 accessions. Of these, 279
accessions alone refer to the wild progenitor of cultivated flax, Linum bienne Mill. However, L. bienne from the region of origin of cultivated flax is rarely represented in genebank collections. References to publications describing
the techniques for ex situ conservation and the infraspecific variation of cultivated flax are made. It is suggested that
taxonomic species delimitation within the genus Linum is in need of clarification and that the variation in Linum species for ornamental use or use in breeding is investigated. 相似文献

The genus Persea consists of two subgenera, Persea (known as avocados) and Eriodaphne (known as aguacatillos, avocado-like species). The present study aimed to determine whether the genus Persea is a monophyletic group and whether the division into two subgenera is an artificial one. In conjunction with these goals,
a hypothesis of the phylogenetic relationships among Persea species is proposed. Our results suggest that Persea is not a monophyletic group. Two clades of Persea can be recognized. The results suggest that Eriodaphne and Persea should be considered to be independent genera. Various leaf and floral characters contributed for separation into groups.
The definition of Eriodaphne is based on fruit color, sessile glands at the base of the stamens, vein prominence and leaf shape. Persea is more closely related to genera Nectandra and Ocotea than Eriodaphne. The 11 species included in Persea are recognized as species. The group is defined by fruit flavor, mature leaf color, number of tertiary divergent veins, and
pubescent bracts in the inflorescence. Within this group, a clade of six species in which P. guatemalensis is included is recovered by seed shape, venation pattern relief, and number of fruits per cluster. Moreover, the seed shape
supports the separation of P. floccosa and P. zentmyerii. A molecular character analysis is necessary to support the Persea clades proposed herein. Nevertheless the phylogenetic relationships revealed by this study provide new bases for the selection
and conservation of the species Persea. 相似文献

The Portuguese maize bread (“broa”) manufactured from traditional maize landraces still plays an important economic and social
role on Central and Northern rural communities of the country. However the traditional maize landraces agricultural systems
are changing. Local maize landraces are in risk of disappearing because of the progressive adoption of hybrid varieties not
suitable for bread production. These changes are contributing to a major loss of genetic diversity. An expedition took place
in the Central region of Portugal (Beira Interior and Beira Litoral) with the purpose of collecting enduring maize landraces
with technological ability for bread production and to access the possibility of establishing a participatory plant breeding
and conservation program. A total of 51 different maize landraces and 175 other varieties of associated crops were collected.
Maize landraces showed to maintain high diversity and potential for improvement. The production relayed on small farms with
polycrop, quality oriented, sustainable systems. A participatory plant breeding and conservation program would be possible
on this region with the proviso that local authorities would be involved. This program would allow a higher valuation of these
maize populations, contributing to halt the current loss of these unique Portuguese maize landraces. 相似文献

Cherimoya (Anonna cherimola Mill.) is a fruit tree which originated in Peru and Ecuador and is now cultivated in several subtropical areas of the world. The characterization of cherimoya cultivars at allozyme level has been previously reported, but the geographic distribution and organization of this variation have not been fully characterized. In this study, we assessed the relationships among 206 cherimoya and four atemoya (A. cherimola ×A. squamosa) cultivars based on allozyme polymorphism. We have confirmed the genetic differences between atemoya and cherimoya cultivars, and showed that cherimoya accessions from Madeira, Bolivia and Spain form homogeneous groups of cultivars. Accessions from Chile and California form heterogeneous groups, probably due to their mixed origins. Cultivars from Peru and Ecuador showed a wide range of allelic variation, as is expected for accessions from the center of origin of this species. 相似文献

The study here was conducted on nearly 12,000 apricot seedlings in the Malatya Region in the Eastern part of Turkey. This
region is famous for its horticulture based mainly on apricot production and the Country's highest apricot production originates
from this region. The flower and fruit characteristics of all populations, which include apricot seedlings, in the region
were evaluated. Based on their horticultural performances, 13 genotypes were selected, of which seven were considered as apricots
served in dried form and six as in table consumption form. Among the selected genotypes, the fruit weight ranged between 28.5
and 71.19 g, soluble solids ranged between 12.7 and 26.5%, while the range in total acidity was between 0.35 and 1.80% and
fruit development period was between 87 and 183 days. To determine the selected genotypes performance in a similar environment,
they were grafted on to 4-year-old rootstocks. The results from these combinations showed that there was some decrease, especially
in fruit size and soluble solids, in the genotypes performance when compared to the results of the initial observations. Some
differences were also detected in taste, fruit shape, pit shape, fruit flesh firmness, skin and flesh colors. The dry fruit
yield was determined as 22.50–28.36% for the selected dry apricot genotypes. The dry fruit yield of all seven genotypes considered
for dry consumption were similar to ‘Hacıhaliloğlu’ and higher than ‘Canino’, which were evaluated as control cultivars. 相似文献

The eleven most known landraces from central and southern Italy were analysed using ISSR markers on 15 randomly chosen individuals
for each landrace, with the aim of assessing genetic variation within and among landraces and possibly ascertaining their
origin and genetic relationships. A total of 164 loci were observed, 128 of which (78.05%) were polymorphic. Gene diversity
over all landraces was I = 0.3759. The highest within-landrace diversity was observed in samples from the Apennine ridge and for one Sicilian landrace;
on the other hand, samples from the small Sicily islands were less variable. Principal Component Analysis and AMOVA allowed
the discrimination of groups of landraces with higher similarity. Analyses indicate that the small Sicily islands landraces
are very closely related to one another and seem to be derived from the peninsular material; moreover, they help disclose
relationships among geographically close landraces. The knowledge so acquired can, therefore, contribute to elaborate strategies
for increasing the economical value of élite landraces and to protect producers from frauds. 相似文献

During a collecting mission in Corsica (France) three landraces of citron melon (Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. et Nakai subsp. lanatus var. citroides (Bailey) Mansf. ex Greb.) were collected in the northern areas. Today in Corsica this old and neglected crop is in decline
and risks extinction. A strategy for its characterization and safeguarding is in progress at the genebank of IGV of Bari (Italy). 相似文献

The genetic control of morphological characters and gliadin composition was studied in two bread wheat lines with introgressed
segments from Aegilops speltoides Tausch. It was found that the transferred trait of leaf hairiness is controlled by one dominant gene, non-allelic to the
known gene, Hl1. It was localized in 7B chromosome. Whole plant non-glaucousness is under the control of an inhibitor gene, allelic to the
gene W1I of wheat located on chromosome 2B. This gene was found to be epistatic to the gene controlling spike waxlessness. The introgressed
gene for spike glume color was found to be allelic to the Rg1 gene located on 1BS of common wheat, but it was linked with another allele of the gliadin locus Gli-B1. 相似文献

Genetic structure of three wild populations (Xinyuan, Gongliu and Daxigou) of apricot in the Ily Valley, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous
Region of China, was investigated with microsatellite (simple sequence repeat, SSR) markers. The higher polymorphism and greater
transportability of these markers between Prunus species proved SSR markers were much efficient for conducting genetic diversity studies in wild apricot. Nei's gene diversity
(He) and Shannon's index of diversity (I) were 0.287 and 0.458, respectively. This indicated that the wild apricot in the Ily Valley still maintained a relatively
high level of diversity. The Gst of 0.137 and Fst of 0.164 revealed that genetic variation mainly resided among individuals
within populations (83.6–86.3%). Population differentiation could also be found according to the distribution of SSR alleles
between the populations. Mantel test showed the genetic distance between populations was significantly correlated to the geographical
distance. The modest amount of gene flow (2.684) would reduce the disjunction between wild apricots. The long-distance dispersal
of pollen by insects was probably the main way of gene flow between populations. Based on the study of population genetic
structure, an effective conservation strategy of the species was discussed. 相似文献

ISSR molecular markers have been used to investigate genetic diversity of oca (Oxalis tuberosa Mol.), an Andean neglected tuber crop species. Sampling procedure allowed a preliminary study of the genetic diversity at
the intra- and intervarietal levels. Twenty tuber lots conserved in situ in the microcentre of Candelaria and ex situ in the Toralapa Centre (Bolivia) were identified. Four ISSR primers amplified a total of 25 fragments of which 17 (68%) were
polymorphic. These experiments show that the structure of oca varieties is mainly based upon vernacular names with a greater
differentiation among tuber lots than within them, supporting agromorphological data. ISSR technique enlightened the existence
of heterogeneous varieties in oca and divergence between in situ and ex situ conservation strategies. These observations are potentially linked to the different ways of management of tubers in these
two conservation systems. 相似文献

The phenotypic variation found in four common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) complex primitive landraces, among a group of accessions collected in Northwestern Argentina in several missions is described, with particular attention to the wide diversity found in some small areas. It is presented a hypothesis about the maintenance of such diversity in bean mixtures or complex primitive landraces that grow close to their wild relative. Wide diversity regarding to seed type and plant characteristics was displayed by the landraces MCM-SV (composed of 11 lines), MCM-292 (14 lines), MCM-298 (5 lines) and VAV-3716 (14 lines). Food uses of dry seed and fresh pod seemed to be more relevant than the aesthetic use although all of them were presumably considered by humans for centuries resulting in the current phenotypes of these complex primitive landraces. Additionally, some weedy types (intermediate between wild and domesticated types) were detected in the landracesMCM-292 and MCM-298. The four complex landraces described consisted of highly diverse mixtures and they could play a role in breeding to enlarge the genetic basis of domesticated bean varieties belonging to the Andean gene pool. 相似文献
