Seed Production and Germinability of Cucurbit Crops
Cucurbit crops are mostly produced for their immature or mature fruits. However, a relatively high proportion of cucurbit fields are destined for seed production, either for seed consumption or for propagation material. Production of cucurbits for seed consumption (as a snack food) is very popular in some parts of the globe and almost unknown in others. Open-pollinated cultivars (inexpensive se...
متن کاملComparative genomics of Brassicaceae crops
The family Brassicaceae is one of the major groups of the plant kingdom and comprises diverse species of great economic, agronomic and scientific importance, including the model plant Arabidopsis. The sequencing of the Arabidopsis genome has revolutionized our knowledge in the field of plant biology and provides a foundation in genomics and comparative biology. Genomic resources have been utili...
متن کاملWRI1 is required for seed germination and seedling establishment.
Storage compound accumulation during seed development prepares the next generation of plants for survival. Therefore, processes involved in the regulation and synthesis of storage compound accumulation during seed development bear relevance to germination and seedling establishment. The wrinkled1 (wri1) mutant of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) is impaired in seed oil accumulation. The WRI1 ...
متن کاملGenomics and breeding of Brassicaceae crops
crops include oil crops, vegetables, condi-ments, fodder crops, and ornamental plants. Most of these crops belong to or are closely related to the genus Brassica. The Brassicaceae also includes the most intensively studied model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana. In molecular genetic studies of Brassicaceae crops, information on A. thaliana genes is highly useful, and many genes important for plant b...
متن کاملCytoplasmic male sterility in Brassicaceae crops
Brassicaceae crops display strong hybrid vigor, and have long been subject to F1 hybrid breeding. Because the most reliable system of F1 seed production is based on cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS), various types of CMS have been developed and adopted in practice to breed Brassicaceae oil seed and vegetable crops. CMS is a maternally inherited trait encoded in the mitochondrial genome, and the ...
