Socio-economic characterisation of date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) growers and date value chains in Pakistan
Increasing food production to feed its rapidly growing population is a major policy goal of Pakistan. The production of traditional staples such as rice (Oryza sativa L.) and bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) has been intensified in many regions, but not in remote, drought-ridden areas. In these arid, marginal environments dates and their by-products are an option to complement staples given t...
متن کاملGenome sequence of the date palm Phoenix dactylifera L
Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) is a cultivated woody plant species with agricultural and economic importance. Here we report a genome assembly for an elite variety (Khalas), which is 605.4 Mb in size and covers >90% of the genome (~671 Mb) and >96% of its genes (~41,660 genes). Genomic sequence analysis demonstrates that P. dactylifera experienced a clear genome-wide duplication after eithe...

متن کاملA simplified Protocol to Induce Callogenesis in Protoplasts of Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) Cultivars
Background: In Algeria, date palm is currently confronted to the Bayoud disease. Biotechnological tools such as protoplasts fusion can appear as an alternative to ensure rapid multiplication and improvement of this species. Objectives: Callogenesis induction in protoplasts isolated from embryogenic callus of three date palm cultivars. Materials and Methods: Some factors influencing the isolatio...
متن کاملSomatic embryogenesis in date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) 'Deglet Nur' and 'Takerbucht' cultivars
The date palm has a pivotal role in the oasis ecosystem and it is an important food crop and commercial commodity. The cloning or protoplast fusion can increase breeding and multiplication of many varieties. Present investigation has been undertaken with the aim to develop methods for obtaining plantlets by somatic embryogenesis either from vegetative or female floral explants, as well as by th...
