Dryopteridaceae are the largest fern family and include nearly 20%of extant fern diversity,with 24 currently recognized genera.Recognition and delineation of genera within this family have varied greatly.The three-sub...
Tibetan weedy barleys reside at the edges of qingke(hulless barley)fields in Tibet(Xizang).The spikes of these weedy barleys contain or lack a brittle rachis,with either two-or six-rowed spikes and either hulled or hu...

Grain number,one of the major determinants of yield in Triticeae crops,is largely determined by spikelet number and spike rachis node number(SRN).Here,we identified three quantitative trait loci(QTLs)for SRN using 145...
The main source of energy for most African families remains firewood. The exploitation of this resource is the main cause of accelerated environmental degradation with its consequences which are climate change and soi...
Phytochemical investigation of peanut testa(the seed coat of Arachis hypogaea L.)led to the isolation of eight phenolic compounds,including caffeic acid(1),methyl caffeate(2),ethyl caffeate(3),methyl protocatechuate(4...
