Detection of sequences related to biosynthesis of antifungal metabolites and identification of a PhzF-like gene in a Pseudomonas rhizobacterium of Piper tuberculatum

Authors: O.S. Silva Jr., N.L.F. Barros, A.S. Siqueira, E.C. Gon?§alves, D. N. Marques, S.P. Reis, and C.R.B. Souza

Our previous studies identified a Pseudomonas putida (Pt12 isolate) associated with roots of Piper tuberculatum Jacq., a Piperaceae occurring in the Amazon region with known resistance to infection by Fusarium solani f. sp. piperis, the causal agent of root rot disease in black pepper (Piper nigrum L.). This Pt12 isolate was a.. Read More»

Authors: Angela Maria dos Santos Pessoa, Elizanilda Ramalho do R?ªgo, Michelle Gon?§alves de Carvalho, Cristine Agrine Pereira dos Santos, Mailson Monteiro do R?ªgo

Genetic variability among pepper genotypes is essential in obtaining hybrid combinations with greater heterotic effect and in obtaining superior strains. This work’s goal was to evaluate the genetic diversity between accessions of Capsicum annuum L., indicating the selection of promising individuals for ornamental purpos.. Read More»

Multiple genetic resistances in Capsicum spp

Authors: C.S. Bento, A.G. de Souza, C.P. Sudr?©, S. Pimenta and R. Rodrigues

This study aimed to identify Capsicum genotypes with resistance to bacterial spot (BS), anthracnose and Pepper yellow mosaic virus (PepYMV). Fifty-four genotypes of Capsicum spp were evaluated. Resistance reaction against BS was evaluated using three replicates, testing hypersensitivity and quantitative resistance in leaves. A.. Read More»

Correlation study of resistance components in the selection of Capsicum genotypes resistant to the fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides

Authors: A.C. Maracahipes, J.W.S. Correa, P.E. Teodoro, K.L. Ara?ºjo, M.A.A. Barelli and L.G. Neves

Anthracnose is among the major diseases of the Capsicum culture. It is caused by different species of the genus Colletotrichum, which may result in major damages to the cultivation of this genus. Studies aiming to search for cultivars resistant to diseases are essential to reduce financial and agricultural losses. The objectiv.. Read More»

Genetic variability of a Brazilian Capsicum frutescens germplasm collection using morphological characteristics and SSR markers

Authors: S.I.C. Carvalho, L.B. Bianchetti, C.F. Ragassi, C.S.C. Ribeiro, F.J.B. Reifschneider, G.S.C. Buso and F.G. Faleiro

Characterization studies provide essential information for the conservation and use of germplasm in plant breeding programs. In this study, 103 Capsicum frutescens L. accessions from the Active Germplasm Bank of Embrapa Hortaliças, representative of all five Brazilian geographic regions, were characterized based on morp..

Identification of Colletotrichum isolates from Capsicum chinense in Amazon

Authors: C.V.S. de Oliveira, K.S. Matos, D.M.C. de Albuquerque, R.E. Hanada and G.F. da Silva

Chili pepper (Capsicum chinense) is a great economic important culture on the State of Amazonas, and it represents, approximately, a production of 1.9 thousand tons per year. It is one of the hosts of Colletotrichum genus in the North region of Brazil. The aim of the study was to differentiate and to identify isolates of Colle.. Read More»

Restoration over time and sustainability of Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi

Authors: S.V. ?lvares-Carvalho, R. Silva-Mann, I.B. Gois, M.F.V. Melo, A.S. Oliveira, R.A. Ferreira and L.J. Gomes

The success of recovery programs on degraded areas is dependent on the genetic material to be used, which should present heterozygosity and genetic diversity in native and recovered populations. This study was carried out to evaluate the model efficiency to enable the recovery of a degraded area of the Lower São Francis.. Read More»

Characterization of Capsicum species using anatomical and molecular data

Authors: G.B. Dias, V.M. Gomes, T.M.S. Moraes, U.P. Zottich, G.R. Rabelo, A.O. Carvalho, M. Moulin, L.S.A. Gon?§alves, R. Rodrigues and M. Da Cunha

Capsicum species are frequently described in terms of genetic divergence, considering morphological, agronomic, and molecular databases. However, descriptions of genetic differences based on anatomical characters are rare. We examined the anatomy and the micromorphology of vegetative and reproductive organs of several Capsicum species. Four Capsicum acces.. Read More»

Discovery of a large set of SNP and SSR genetic markers by high-throughput sequencing of pepper (Capsicum annuum)

Authors: M. Nicola?¯, C. Pisani, J.-P. Bouchet, M. Vuylsteke and A. Palloix

Genetic markers based on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are in increasing demand for genome mapping and fingerprinting of breeding populations in crop plants. Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing provide the opportunity for whole-genome resequencing and identification of allelic variants by mapping the reads to a reference genome. However..

In silico identification and characterization of the WRKY gene superfamily in pepper (Capsicum annuum L.)

Authors: Y. Cheng, Z.P. Yao, M.Y. Ruan, Q.J. Ye, R.Q. Wang, G.Z. Zhou, J. Luo, Z.M. Li, Y.J. Yang and H.J. Wan

The WRKY family is one of the most important transcription factor families in plants, involved in the regulation of a broad range of biological roles. The recent releases of whole-genome sequences of pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) allow us to perform a genome-wide identification and characterization of the WRKY family. In this study, 61 CaWRKY proteins were .. Read More»
