Phenology and reproductive effort of cultivated and wild forms of Pennisetum glaucum under experimental conditions in the Sahel : implications for the maintenance of polymorphism in the species
TL;DR: The wild and the cultivated forms of pearl millet, Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br.
Book ChapterDOI
Use of RFLP markers to study the diversity of the coconut palm
TL;DR: The geographical spread and diversity of the coconut palm in terms of growth habit, and fruit shape and colour, have led to the identification of a large number of varieties as mentioned in this paper, which have been exchanged internationally by research stations over the past 50 years.

TL;DR: It is found that the degree of TRD through the male gametes varied depending on the genetic background of the female plants, raising the possibility that siTRD driven by a single locus may be affected by multiple genetic factors harbored in natural populations.

Genetic Characteristics of Populations
TL;DR: Man’s influence on plant populations is often discussed in terms of habitat destruction, pollution, pollution), increased dispersal, and in relation to the species replacements in agriculture and forestry.

Molecular approaches to origin, ancestry and domestication history of crop plants: Barley and clover as examples
TL;DR: Changing patterns of genetic change generated by evolution prior, during, and after domestication, is important to develop sound genetic conservation programs of genetic resources of crop plants and also increases the efficiency of breeding programs.
