Alternative oxidase (Aox) has been proposed as a functional marker for breeding stress
tolerant plant varieties. This requires presence of polymorphic Aox allele sequences in …

Generating genomic resources in terms of molecular markers is imperative in molecular
breeding for crop improvement. Though development and application of microsatellite …

This review highlights a four-step rational for the hypothesis that mitochondria play an
upstream central role for stress-induced somatic embryogenesis (SE):(1) Initiation of SE is …

Olive (Olea europaea L.) trees are mainly propagated by adventitious rooting of semi‐
hardwood cuttings. However, efficient commercial propagation of valuable olive tree …

To systematically determine their phylogenetic relationships and develop molecular markers
for species discrimination of Salvia bowleyana, S. splendens, and S. officinalis, we …

In a perspective entitled 'From plant survival under severe stress to anti-viral human
defense'we raised and justified the hypothesis that transcript level profiles of justified target …

There seem to be a certain degree of reluctance in accepting ILP-based methods as part of
the range of molecular markers that are classically used for plant genotyping. Indeed, since …

Introns are noncoding sequences in a gene that are transcribed to precursor mRNA but
spliced out during mRNA maturation and are abundant in eukaryotic genomes. The …

The subfamily Polygonoideae encompasses a diverse array of medicinal and horticultural
plants that hold significant economic value. However, due to the lack of a robust taxonomy …

Reverse transcription-quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) is a widely used technique for
gene expression analysis. The reliability of this method depends largely on the suitable …
