TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the quality and amount of genomic DNA extracted from young leaves of strawberry after tissue lyophilization and maceration in presence of polivinilpirrolidone (PVP).

TL;DR: A new methodology was applied to evaluate the gene flow between common bean cultivars, by means of a specially delineated experiment in two stages, which found that the natural outcrossing rate was practically zero beyond a distance of 3.25 m.

TL;DR: The results obtained from the microsatellite markers showed a substantial degree of genetic diversity in the olive tree accessions used in Brazil and allowed the identification of 52 of the 60 olive genotypes, in addition to the recognition of several varietal synonyms.

TL;DR: The genetic profiles of the hybrids from each test cross were very diverse, most likely due to the high heterozygosity of the genome of each progenitor involved, which might indicate the presence of adequate genetic diversity among the hybrids to allow for the selection of new cultivars with agronomic traits that are more suitable to environmental conditions in Brazil.

TL;DR: The stress caused by waterlogged soil reduced the weight of 100 seeds and grain yield but did not affect the number of kernel rows, ear length or prolificacy, and selection for yield resulted in higher yields.
