Lipoxygenase-1 (LOX-1) null 'New Sachiho Golden' is a two-row malting barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivar released in 2015 that was developed at the Tochigi Prefectural Agricultural Experimental Station by backcross breeding using the high-yield leading cultivar 'Sachiho Golden' as a recurrent parent and the LOX-1 null mutant 'Daikei LM1' as a non-recurrent parent. To develop 'New Sachiho Gold...

In the cut flower market, traditional breeding is still the best way to achieve new rose cultivars. The geographical delocalization of cultivar constitution (generally made in Europe and North America) and plant cultivation (large areas in Africa and South America) represents a limit point for crossing and selection. Rose breeders often need to overcome geographical distances, resulting in asyn...

The flax cultivar CISJU21, developed by the crop breeding program of UNIJUÍ, was result selection for plants with early flowering, a shorter cycle, greater capsule diameter, optimized weight and higher number grains per plant, high yield stability grain in tested scenarios.

Alterations of plant growth, nitrogenase activity and nutrient concentration as a consequence of salt treatments were studied in five chickpea Cicer arietinumL.) cultivars from Spain and Syria. Plants, in symbiosis withMesorhizobium ciceri ch-191 strain, were grown under controlled onditions for 32 days and subjected to salinity stress. Parameters of growth and nitrogen fixation were affected u...

This study aimed to evaluate the chemical composition, protein profile, and isoflavones content of soybean genotypes with different seed coat colors, intended for human consumption, for selection purposes regarding their nutritional properties. The cultivars BRSMG 800A, BRSMG 790A, and Conquista and the lineage MGBR07-7141 with matte brown, light yellow hilum, dark yellow hilum, and glossy blac...

This study evaluated how the proportional area of natural habitat surrounding a vineyard (i.e. landscape diversity) worked in conjunction with crop vigor, cultivar and rootstock selection to influence biological control of the western grape leafhopper (Erythroneura elegantula Osborn). The key natural enemies of E. elegantula are Anagrus erythroneurae S. Trjapitzin & Chiappini and A. daanei Tria...
