Brazilian ornamental phytogenetic resources in Embrapa germplasm banks: obstacles and opportunities

چکیده
Abstract Brazilian floriculture is driven by novelties, requiring the constant entry of new products into market. This situation favors Brazil, which has, in its native flora, unique species world and with high potential for rational use commercial purposes. The flora ornamental little explored, restricted and, often, extractive consequent genetic erosion. from different ecosystems may constitute a future alternative floriculture. Despite large amount plant resources, there are few initiatives conservation domestication improvement sustainable use. For this reason, Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa) conserves collections plants, research these form Genetic Resources Ornamental Plants Project. In addition to conservation, it sought, partnership other institutions, characterization evaluation aiming at completion way, materials already characterized documented make possible add value maintained. Currently, Embrapa has six ex situ plants (Tropical species, Bromeliads, Cactaceae Pampa Biome, Amazonian Orchids Cerrado) also counts on variability banks (Passion fruit, Pineapple, Paspalum, Pepper, Pumpkin germplasm banks) that have been evaluating accessions, selecting registering cultivars

Neuroepigenomics: resources, obstacles, and opportunities
Long-lived post-mitotic cells, such as the majority of human neurons, must respond effectively to ongoing changes in neuronal stimulation or microenvironmental cues through transcriptional and epigenomic regulation of gene expression. The role of epigenomic regulation in neuronal function is of fundamental interest to the neuroscience community, as these types of studies have transformed our un...

Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is an important native grass and dominant member of the tallgrass prairie ecosystem. It is used for conservation, restoration, livestock feed production, and bioenergy feedstock production. The purpose of this review is to describe the biological and geographical basis for switchgrass germplasm diversity and to provide a resource for scientists and outreach per...
