|
| In international trade, it could be carried by potato tubers or by true seed of germplasm material. |
|
| This strategy is based on our global approach to the wheat chain, from germplasm to the finished product. |
|
| The germplasm that goes to make up a variety is the driving force of any agricultural evolution. |
|
| We never worked with Red Delicious here, so we had a totally different set of germplasm in our apples. |
|
| The CFC's second account was for applied research such as dissemination of improved germplasm varieties. |
|
| By exploring and valorizing the incomparable germplasm of this generous plant, breeders have achieved tens of thousands of forms of wheat. |
|
| The company's business model is to license its technologies to leading seed companies and germplasm developers. |
|
| Using a commercially available antibody-based detection kit, it was confirmed in seed production fields, germplasm improvement plots, and in commercial field corn. |
|
| It introduces, maintains, characterizes, and evaluates germplasm collections of banana, plantain, sapodilla, mamey sapote, cacao, Garcinia, Annona, and bamboo. |
|
| This is supported by the authors' observations on germplasm differences in sugar content between Bt maize and their isolines. |
|
| Each of the 19 other repositories contains certain species of plants, while this one contains backup versions of them all and is the only one that stores animal germplasm. |
|
| Under the licence contract between the farmer and the company the farmer becomes the equivalent of a renter of plant germplasm. |
|
| Similarly, imported germplasm can be ill-adapted to the local environment, requiring more inputs for disease control. |
|
| Maïsadour Semences will exchange germplasm with Novartis Seeds, which will also grant the joint venture biotechnology licences in order to develop improved lines of seeds. |
|
| Professor Tom Michaels and technician Tom Smith, University of Guelph, developed the white bean using international genetic resources and an innovative technique to recover germplasm. |
|
| Botanic gardens, germplasm banks and other facilities for ex situ and in situ preservation have grown in number and in activity in many countries in the Mediterranean basin. |
|
| Cryopreserving shoot tips also offers a way to ensure pathogen-free germplasm for restoring lost or imperiled cultivars. |
|
|
|
| Their interests are, therefore, to develop hybrid varieties and seek strong intellectual property rights in order to prevent the exchange of germplasm among breeders. |
|
| Vice versa, if benefit-sharing arrangements are perceived by providers as dissatisfactory, it will negatively affect incentives to place germplasm in the Multilateral System. |
|
| With this germplasm, and what is available in Ukraine, we are aiming to create dent-dent grain corn with FAO earliness of 200 to 400, suited to stressful conditions, particularly drought. |
|
| Genome: set of genes and germplasm characterizing a living organism. |
|
| These genetics could help save the wheat supply everywhere from a woeful fate, and researchers are rallying to bring the resistant varieties into a germplasm bank for everyone's use. |
|
| For Limagrain, mastering germplasm and industrial cereal transformation processes is fundamental in providing added value to agricultural production. |
|
| Ninety-five per cent of the world's itinerant cocoa germplasm — shoots, pods, and the like — has a required layover in Reading, where it is kept until proved uncontaminated. |
|
| The groves — now named the Citrus Variety Collection — are one of the largest and most diverse of their kind, and serve as a national repository for citrus germplasm. |
|
| We had the U. S. Navy involved, we had consulates involved, we were buying seeds from companies in Europe, and we established agreements with two dozen countries for reciprocal exchanges of germplasm. |
|
| It's a complex hybrid of native grapes and Old World germplasm. |
|
| You have first to have the product to implement the license, but if you are not allowed to have access to the germplasm, you do not have the product. |
|
| As far as the access to germplasm is at stake, is there a real problem? |
|
| This suggests that important sources of resistance may be found in the wheat germplasm, but that breeding for grasshopper resistance has not been a major focus. |
|
| After pressure from the plant breeding community, they agreed to share the genes, but only in the form of raw, early germplasm, making it very difficult for other plant breeders to work with the material. |
|
| Find information on germplasm, or the living tissue from which new plants can be grown, that contains the genetic information for the plant's hereditary makeup. |
|
| Find out how conventional breeding techniques and biotechnology are being used to develop improved varieties and advanced germplasm of oilseed and forage species. |
|
| A new pinto bean germplasm line, USPT-ANT-1, which harbors what's called the Co-42 gene, is resistant to the most destructive races of anthracnose. |
|
| From these so-called gynomonoecious plants with the sex-reversal trait, Dewald is screening for agronomic traits such as disease resistance, to develop new germplasm lines. |
