Germplasm collections often include open-pollinated varieties from diverse latitudes and climatic areas that cannot be correctly conserved in a single environment. The objective of this research was to investigate if open-pollinated maize varieties from diverse latitudinal and climatic conditions could be conserved in a single location. Twelve varieties from the humid Spain, the dry Spain, and the...
There is a need to develop the next generation of healthier crop products for an improved human and animal nutrition. Maize (Zea mays L.) cultivars with improved amino acid profiles are essential to diets focused on this crop. Breeders have added crop value with the development of quality protein maize (QPM). However, QPM cultivars have never been an option to farmer and ranchers in short-season environments...
Regulation of flowering time in almond, as in other Prunus species, is a complex process involving both chill and heat requirements. Following exposure to appropriate consecutive periods of cold and warm temperatures, the buds break dormancy and sprout or flower depending on bud type. To maximize flowering and subsequent vegetative growth and fruit set, chilling and ensuing warm temperature requirements...
