Development and diversity analysis of an hexaploid pre-breeding asparagus population with introgressions from wild relative species
(Elsevier, 2021)
The development of new asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) cultivars has been hindered by the lack of genetic diversity in the crop. The current study aims at generating novel plant material to widen the genetic base of ...
Functional characterization of varieties of Utrerana Avian Breed
(Universidad de Córdoba, UCOPress, 2021)
Despite the wide biodiversity of Spanish avian species of zootechnical interest, projects aiming at characterizing these genotypes and their products is necessary. The characterization of Utrerana hen production is needed ...
Discriminant Canonical Tool for Differential Biometric Characterization of Multivariety Endangered Hen Breeds
(MDPI, 2021)
This study aimed to develop a tool to perform the morphological characterization of Sureña and Utrerana breeds, two endangered autochthonous breeds ascribed to the Mediterranean trunk of Spanish autochthonous hens and their ...
Potential Use of Wild Einkorn Wheat for Wheat Grain Quality Improvement: Evaluation and Characterization of Glu-1, Wx and Ha Loci
(MDPI, 2021)
Wild einkorn (Triticum monococcum L. ssp. aegilopoides (Link) Thell.) is a diploid wheat species from the Near East that has been classified as an ancestor of the first cultivated wheat (einkorn; T. monococcum L. ssp. ...
Spanish Spelt Wheat: From an Endangered Genetic Resource to a Trendy Crop
(MDPI, 2021)
Spelt wheat (Triticum aestivum L. ssp. spelta Thell.) is an ancient wheat that was widely cultivated in the past. This species derived from a cross between emmer wheat (T. turgidum spp. dicoccum Schrank em. Thell.) and ...
Genetic Characterization of the “Chusca Lojana”, a Creole Goat Reared in Ecuador, and Its Relationship with Other Goat Breeds
(MDPI, 2020)
The largest population of goats (62%) in Ecuador is in the dry forest region in the south of the country. A Creole goat, named “Chusca Lojana”, has adapted to the dry forest region where environmental conditions are warm-dry, ...
Variability of Meat and Carcass Quality from Worldwide Native Chicken Breeds
(MDPI, 2022)
The present research aimed to determine the differential clustering patterns of carcass and meat quality traits in local chicken breeds from around the world and to develop a method to productively characterize minority ...
Genetic Variability Assessment of a Diploid Pre-Breeding Asparagus Population Developed Using the Tetraploid Landrace ‘Morado de Huétor’
(MDPI, 2022)
Different studies have reported a narrow genetic base for garden asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) due to its common origin, a diploid population (‘Purple Dutch’). The present study focused on the development of new ...
Diversity and Genetic Relationship of Free-Range Chickens from the Northeast Region of Brazil
(MDPI, 2020)
In this study, we aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity within and among chicken breeds from the northeast region of Brazil (states of Bahia and Piauí) using microsatellite markers. In addition, we assessed the identity ...
Processing and bread-making quality profile of Spanish spelt wheat
(MDPI, 2023)
Spelt wheat (Triticum aestivum L. ssp. spelta Thell.) is an ancient wheat that has been widely cultivated for hundreds of years. Recently, this species has been neglected in most of Europe; however, the desire for more ...
