TL;DR: The genetic diversity in Tunisian perennial ryegrass was examined by the help of inter-simple sequence repeats to provide evidence of a high degree of genetic diversity and a complex domestication process in this crop.

TL;DR: The phytochemical characteristics of Medicago minima selected from different provenances in Tunisia are explored and useful information for the exploitation of the phenolic compounds in these weeds for the development of environmental sustainability is provided.

TL;DR: In Tunisia, the northern Sulla pallida and the southern S. spinosissima seem to be molecularly closely related suggesting their implication in breeding improvement program particularly in arid and semi arid areas in order to enhance forage production in the marginal area.

TL;DR: The great similarity of the ITS sequences between H. coronarium and H. carnosum suggests the usefulness of the latter in selection programmes to improve pastoral production in semi-arid areas and the level of variation was high enough to make the ITS1 and ITS2 a useful tool for phylogenetic reconstruction.

TL;DR: The results suggested that purslane deployed an important element of tolerance such as the transporters ability to discriminate cations as well as the variation of PC5S gene expression tested by semi-quantitative RT-PCR revealed that proline synthesis is important in plants adaptation in saline conditions.
