Utilization of landraces of European flint maize for breeding and genetic research

Autor: Renner, Juliane

Maize is one of the most important crops species for agriculture worldwide. Since its domestication, landraces formed the traditional type of variety. Selection and genetic factors formed a broad diversity of open-pollinated populations well adapted

Assessing the genetic variation of phosphate efficiency in European maize (Zea mays L.)

Autor: Weiß, Thea Mi

Why should plant breeders in Central Europe care about phosphate efficiency? Soil phosphorus levels have mostly reached high to very high levels over the last decades in intensively farmed, livestock-rich regions. However, the European Union demands

The loss of variation in crops due to the modernization of agriculture has been described as genetic erosion. The current paper discusses the different views that exist on the concept of genetic erosion in crops. Genetic erosion of cultivated diversi

The introduction of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) into Western Europe and the phenotypic variation of dry beans collected in the Netherlands

Publikováno v: Euphytica. 94:319-328

The first introduction of common bean from Central/South America into Western Europe most likely took place around 1500. The attractive bean seeds and their easy transportation warranted numerous additional introductions, not only from the Americas,
