Molecular characterization of crop genetic resources is a powerful approach to elucidate the origin varieties and facilitate local cultivar management. Here we aimed decipher diversification French olive germplasm. The 113 accessions ex situ collection Porquerolles were characterized with 20 nuclear microsatellites plus their plastid haplotype. We then compared this Mediterranean from Worldwide Olive Germplasm Bank Marrakech, Morocco. High diversity was observed within varieties, indicating high admixture level, an almost equal contribution three main gene pools. Nearly identical closely related genotypes among Italian/Spanish varieties. A number parent-offspring relationships also detected between two Italian ('Frantoio' 'Moraiolo') Spanish variety ('Gordal Sevillana'). Our investigations indicated that germplasm resulted diffusion material multiple origins followed by based on parentage strongly suggest farmers have been actively selecting olives agroecosystems more affected unexpected frosts than southernmost regions could be seen as incubators bridge Italy Spain has enhanced varietal diversification.

During the last years, a great effort has been dedicated at development and employment of diverse approaches for achieving more stress-tolerant climate-flexible crops sustainable yield increases to meet food energy demands future. The ongoing climate change is in fact leading frequent extreme events with negative impact on production, such as increased temperatures, drought, soil salinization well invasive arthropod pests diseases. In this review, "green strategies" (e.g., chemical priming, root-associated microorganisms), advanced technologies genome editing, high-throughput phenotyping) are described basis most recent research evidence. Particularly, attention focused potential use context climate-smart agriculture (the so called "next generation") improve plant tolerance resilience abiotic biotic stresses. addition, gap between results obtained controlled experiments those from application these real field conditions (lab step) also discussed.

Soil salinization is an important global issue since marginal salt-affected soils have harmful consequences in agriculture and ecosystems. This article reviews different sustainable strategies adopted for soil reclamation Mediterranean climates. An innovative approach to salinity management includes a wide range of technologies, such as: phytoremediation, phytodesalination, vegetative bioremediation, amendments application Technosols as well inoculation with beneficial microorganisms like plant growth promoting bacteria arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Besides that, the role halophyte crops accelerating area's recovery while providing food feed, halophilic new bioinoculant production, are discussed. We conclude that combined use plant, soil- microbial-based technologies valuable option relieve saline stress exposure improve yield conditions.

Abstract Bud-break is an economically and environmentally important process in trees shrubs from boreal temperate latitudes, but its molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we show that two previously reported transcription factors, EARLY BUD BREAK 1 (EBB1) SHORT VEGETATIVE PHASE-Like (SVL) directly interact to control bud-break. EBB1 a positive regulator of bud-break, whereas SVL negative negatively regulates expression. We further report the identification characterization EBB3 gene. temperature-responsive, epigenetically-regulated, bud-break provides direct link activation cell cycle during AP2/ERF factor positively CYCLIND3.1 Our results reveal architecture putative regulatory module links temperature-mediated with cycle.

Abstract Potential for, and limits to, adaptation to environmental changes are critical for resilience risk mitigation. The Mediterranean basin is a mosaic of biodiversity‐rich ecosystems long affected by human influence, whose now questioned climate change. After reviewing the different components biological adaptation, we present main characteristics marine terrestrial biodiversity in pressures they face. Taking climatic trends into consideration, discuss adaptive potential range dominated species without active dispersal. We argue that high heterogeneity landscapes seascapes constitutes laboratory study when conditions change rapidly may provide opportunities adaptability ecosystems.

Within the context of global warming, long-living plants such as perennial woody species endure adverse conditions. Among all abiotic stresses, drought stress is one most detrimental stresses that inhibit plant growth and productivity. Plants have evolved multiple mechanisms to respond stress, among which transcriptional regulation key mechanisms. In this review, we summarize recent progress on response by transcription factor (TF) families, include abscisic acid (ABA)-dependent ABA-responsive element/ABRE-binding factors (ABRE/ABF), WRKY, Nuclear Factor Y well ABA-independent AP2/ERF NAC in model Arabidopsis . We also review what known species, particularly Populus , due its importance relevance economic ecological processes. discuss opportunities for a deeper understanding with development high-throughput omics analyses advanced genome editing techniques.

The changes in the state of climate have a high impact on perennial fruit crops thus threatening food availability. Indeed, climatic factors affect several plant aspects, such as phenological stages, physiological processes, disease-pest frequency, yield, and qualitative composition tissues derived products. To mitigate effects parameters variability, plants implement strategies defense, by changing trends, altering physiology, increasing carbon sequestration, metabolites synthesis.

Synthetic polyploids have been extensively studied for breeding in the last decade. However, use of such genotypes at agronomical level is still limited. Polyploidization known to modify certain plant phenotypes while leaving most fundamental characteristics apparently untouched. For this reason, polyploid can be very useful improving specific traits crop varieties as quality, yield, or environmental adaptation. Nevertheless, mechanisms that underlie polyploidy-induced novelty remain poorly understood. Ploidy-induced might also include some undesired effects need considered. In case grafted composite crops, benefits provided both by rootstock´s adaptation soil conditions and scion´s excellent yield quality. Thus, crops provide an extraordinary opportunity exploit artificial polyploidy, independently applied explored root and/or scion level, increasing chances finding successful combinations.
