Background: Planting tested forest reproductive material is crucial to ensure the increased resilience of intensively managed productive stands for timber and wood product markets under climate change scenarios. Single-s...

Cultivated peanut is susceptible to several highly damaging pests, pathogens and abiotic stressors, largely due to its very narrow genetic base. However, a ploidy barrier exists between cultivated and highly resistant wi...

The article presents the results of study of 12 potato cultivars in the Omsk region (2022–2024). The aim of the research was to establish relationships between economically valuable traits of potato cultivars using cor...

Milk yield test-day records on the first three lactations of 25,500 Holstein cows were used to estimate genetic parameters and predict breeding values for nine measures of persistency and 305-d milk yield in a random reg...

In this study, we describe, for the first time, the genetic composition of the southern elephant seal Mirounga leonina (SES) breeding colony at Potter Peninsula (PP) (King George Island, Antarctica) based on a fragment o...

As part of an on-going long-term study on the reproductive ecology and health status of imperial cormorants (Phalacrocorax atriceps), blood samples were collected to establish baseline values for hematological parameters...

Abstract This study analyzes four decades (1980–2019) of cultivar registration in Argentina and its relationship with agricultural production trends, with focus on the complementary roles of the private sector and publ...

Increasing leaf dry matter and phenolic content in tomato has the potential to enhance plant resilience, a key requirement for food security and sustainable agriculture in the context of climate change. However, phenolic...

The Mangalarga Marchador (MM) horse breed has expressive importance in the Brazilian economy. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate diversity in the MM breed. A database with a total of 3,193 genotyped horses wa...

The integration of underutilised orphan crops into food systems can reduce the reliance on major crops for global food security and support adaptation to climate change. Major crops are increasingly susceptible to climat...

Abstract Background Terpenes and phenolic compounds are multifunctional plant metabolites that contribute to defense, signaling, and ecological interactions, while supporting industrial applications. Here, we implemented...

A study of selected blackcurrant seedlings bred in the Urals was conducted in the Sverdlovsk region (Middle Urals), and the most promising cultivars for mechanized harvesting were identified. The study subjects were 29 s...

Reciprocal crosses and F1 hybrids revealed maternal effects and heterosis, highlighting the role of genetic background and parent selection in enhancing tomato quality. This study assessed ten tomato genotypes, including...

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to estimate genetic parameters and genetic trends for reproductive traits in Wistar rats. A total of 1,167 data records from 283 females over six generations of monogamous mating pairs ...

Registros de produção de leite e de gordura de 5086 vacas puras e mestiças da raça Gir de rebanhos de diferentes Estados do Brasil, ajustados para idade adulta, rebanho, ano e estação de parto, foram utilizados par...

Este trabajo brinda datos sobre las diferentes respuestas fisiológicas y morfológicas de seis variedades de Chenopodium quinoa Willd, de diferentes orígenes geográ- ficos, cultivadas bajo las mismas condiciones ambie...

The study was conducted in the Arkhangelsk region using a sample of 430 Kholmogory cows. The aim of this study was to investigate associations between polymorphisms in the mannose-binding lectin (MBL1) gene and milk prod...

Stellaria Radix, known as Yinchaihu (YCH) in traditional Chinese medicine, is derived from the dried roots of Stellaria dichotoma L. var. lanceolata Bge. Despite its clinical importance in treating pediatric febrile cond...

Goats play an essential role in sustaining rural communities in Pakistan by providing milk, meat, and income under diverse production systems. This study compared the morphometric features of exotic Saanen goats with loc...

A susceptible strain of Aedes albopictus derived from the Gainesville strain (Florida, USA) was established in our laboratory. The larvicidal efficacies of the neurotoxic insecticides temephos, permethrin and the pure ci...

Zaprionus indianus is a species of fly native to the Afrotropical biogeographic region, which around twenty years ago invaded the American continent. Several studies have shown that local adaptation and phenotypic plasti...

El estudio de las diferencias individuales en el comportamiento de los perros domésticos tiene un gran valor aplicado dado que permite una mejor selección de los mismos para cumplir las variadas funciones que tienen en...
