Breeding Cold-hardy Fruit Crops in Minnesota
The Univ. of Minnesota has one of the oldest, continuous fruit breeding programs in North America. It serves a region that experiences all the vagaries of a continental climate, with temperatures ranging from above 35C in the summer to below – 40C in the winter. Precipitation, as rain during the growing season and snow during the dormant season, can vary dramatically from year to year. These wo...
متن کاملBreeding crops for improved mineral nutrition under climate change conditions.
Improvements in understanding how climate change may influence chemical and physical processes in soils, how this may affect nutrient availability, and how plants may respond to changed availability of nutrients will influence crop breeding programmes. The effects of increased atmospheric CO2 and warmer temperatures, both individually and combined, on soil microbial activity, including mycorrhi...
متن کاملTemperate Berry Crops
Wherever humans have lived, they have made berries a part of their diet. Most of these have never been developed beyond local markets but some have become economically important crops. In this paper, the berry crops have been divided into four groups based on their current international popularity and potential future value. An overview of the status of development, current production, and futu...
متن کاملWaterlogging Tolerance of Crops: Breeding, Mechanism of Tolerance, Molecular Approaches, and Future Prospects
Submergence or flood is one of the major harmful abiotic stresses in the low-lying countries and crop losses due to waterlogging are considerably high. Plant breeding techniques, conventional or genetic engineering, might be an effective and economic way of developing crops to grow successfully in waterlogged condition. Marker assisted selection (MAS) is a new and more effective approach which ...
متن کاملRecent advances in molecular tool development for drought tolerance breeding in cereal crops: a review
Drought stress is one of the major yield constraints for cereal crops. Traditionally, for developing drought tolerant cultivars, selection either direct or indirect is practiced. Although this approach is effective, yet time consuming and labour intensive. Identification of drought related quantitative trait loci (QTLs) coupled with marker assisted selection has shown some positive results. Tra...
