Molecular characterization ofCitrus macropteraMontr. (Satkara): An endangered wild species from northeast India

Chemical Variability of Peel and Leaf Essential Oils in the Citrus Subgenus Papeda (Swingle) and Few Relatives

“…This composition of C. macroptera peel oil is different than the ones described by Rana and Blazquez [33], which contained 55.3% limonene, 4.7% of (E)-βcaryophyllene, and 3.5% geraniol; and Miah et al [34], which contained limonene (73.5%), δ-cadinene (3.4%), and α-terpineol (3%). This compositional diversity of C. macroptera peel oil is consistent with the genetic diversity revealed by DNA markers [16]. Principal Component Analysis performed on peel oil samples (components higher than 2%).…”

“…Conversely, hydrocarbons were the main components in the second study: β-pinene (33.3%), α-pinene (25.3%), p-cymene (17.6%), and (E)-β-ocimene (6.7%), with very little sabinene (4.8%) and no geranyl acetate [24]. Therefore, the chemical composition we identified in this study is novel, suggesting significant variability in this species, as previously observed with DNA molecular markers [16].…”

“…However, it should be noted that the classification of Melanesian papeda (C. macroptera) has not yet been considered in this phylogenomic taxonomy. In terms of genetic diversity, there are very few studies concerning the Papeda group, though high intraspecific genetic diversity has been identified in C. macroptera [16] and C. cavaleriei (or C. ichangensis) [17].…”

Characterization ofGypsophilaspecies and commercial hybrids with nuclear whole-genome and cytoplasmic molecular markers

“…Now a major advantage is given by employing DNA markers. Molecular markers are now employed in plant diversity assessment, in crop improvement, in phylogenetic and systematic studies, in conservation biology, in molecular ecology and developmental biology, as well as in forensic analysis (for a review, see Borzatti Von Loewenstern et al 2013;Malik et al 2013;Parida et al 2013;Poczai et al 2013;Bolger et al 2014;Techen et al 2014;Tonnabel et al 2014;van Zonneveld et al 2014).…”

Origen, dispersión y diversidad del chirimoyo (Annona cherimola Mill.) en el continente americano

“…An additional set of studies have also focused on fruit tree crop wild relatives (CWR) such as Rubus idaeus (Graham et al 2003); Pistacia khinjuk and Pistacia atlantica (Shanjani et al 2009); Olea europaea subsp. cuspidata (Koehmstedt et al 2011); Malus sylvestris, M. orientalis, and M. sieversii (Cornille et al 2013); or Citrus macroptera (Malik et al 2013). The characterization and conservation of genetic diversity in CWRs is becoming of increasing interest especially in the current context of climate change since they can be useful to incorporate into crops a range of useful genes to increase resiliency and productivity (Warschefsky et al 2014).…”
