30 gru 2011 · With next-generation sequencing technologies, researchers are increasingly able to genotype hundreds of markers within populations of non-model organisms, and probe the genetic architecture of population and individual traits critical to answering important questions about plant mating systems.
9 cze 2024 · Shifts in pollinator occurrence and their pollen transport effectiveness drive the evolution of mating systems in flowering plants. Understanding the genomic basis of these changes is essential for predicting the persistence of a species under environmental changes.
18 sty 2023 · Plant breeding aims to select, identify, and expand varieties with valuable traits desired by consumers and breeders in the next generations by targeting diversity through new variations. Therefore, breeding will fail if suitable individuals cannot be selected for the next generation.
She presents the factorial experimental approach that allows disentangling different agents of selection, whether pollinators, biotic interactions, or abiotic factors, on floral traits. This method relies on experimental manipulations of the tested selection agents.
The entire breeding system of ornamentals have been very simply reviewed and cited with very common examples so that even a new breeder can follow and select the most suitable techniques for developing the new varieties with desired traits of commercial ornamental species.
The evolution of breeding systems. Our account discusses how studies of breeding behaviour have developed, and emphasises that a knowledge of the different breeding systems provides an indispensable framework for understanding the complexities of patterns and processes found in nature.
6 paź 2009 · However, in this article, we focus primarily on the evolutionary effects of mating system on subsequent adaptation in the floral display. The magnitude of total allocation to attraction is determined by both the number of flowers produced and the size of individual flowers.
