Subcuticular–Intracellular Hemibiotrophy of Colletotrichum lupini in Lupinus mu...
Guilengue, Norberto; Silva, Maria do Céu; Talhinhas, Pedro; Neves-Martins, J.; Loureiro, AndreiaAnthracnose caused by Colletotrichum lupini is the most important disease affecting lupin cultivation worldwide. Lupinus mutabilis has been widely studied due to its high protein and oil content. However, it has proved to be sensitive to anthracnose, which limits the expansion of its cultivation. In this work, we seek to unveil the strategy that is used by C. lupini to infect and colonize L. mutabilis tissues u...
Maximizing Blad-containing oligomerfungicidal activity in sweet cultivars of Lu...
Cruz, Filipe; Batista-Santos, Paula; Monteiro, Sara; Neves-Martins, J.; Ferreira, Ricardo BoavidaDuring seed germination and plantlet growth, an important aspect of Lupinus β-conglutin proteolysis is the accumulation of blad in the cotyledons. Blad, a 20.4 kDa, 173 residue polypeptide which inhibits fungal growth, is the main subunit of BCO (Blad-containing oligomer), a Lupinus bioactive polypeptide oligomer, which underwent a successful translational research during the last thirty years. The development ...
Response to anthracnose in a tarwi (Lupinus muyabilis) collection is influenced...
Guilengue, Norberto; Neves-Martins, J.; Talhinhas, PedroAnthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum lupini, is a major limiting factor for lupin production. Tarwi or Andean Lupin (Lupinus mutabilis) is generally regarded as susceptible to anthracnose, but the high protein and oil content of its seeds raise interest in promoting its cultivation in Europe. In this study we evaluated the response to anthracnose of 10 tarwi accessions contrasting in anthocyanin pigmentation, ...
State and progress of Andean lupin cultivation in Europe: a review
Bebeli, Penelope J.; Lazaridi, Efstathia; Chatzigeorgiou, Tilemachos; Hein, Waltraud; Alexopoulos, Alexios A.; Canha, Gonçalo; Haren, Rob J.F.Lupinus mutabilis is an important source of protein in different Andean countries, and its use in diets, particularly those of less wealthy individuals, has been observed for thousands of years. There is an increasing demand for protein crops suitable for Europe and this species is a potential candidate. Assessment of Lupinus mutabilis genetic material in European conditions started more than 40 years ago, with...
Epidemiology, histopathology and aetiology of olive anthracnose caused by Colle...
Talhinhas, P.; Mota-Capitão, C.; Martins, S.; Ramos, Ana Paula; Neves-Martins, J.; Guerra-Guimarães, L.; Várzea, V.; Silva, M.C.; Sreenivasaprasad, S.Anthracnose is an important disease affecting mature olive fruits, causing significant yield losses, and poor fruit and oil quality. In Portugal, high anthracnose incidence was recorded during 2003–2007 with 41%of 908 orchards surveyed displaying disease symptoms. In another 14% of the orchards, the pathogen was recorded in symptomless plants. Disease severity was on average 36%, frequently reaching 100%. In Po...

AFLP, ISSR and RAPD markers reveal high levels of genetic diversity among Lupin...
Talhinhas, P.; Neves-Martins, J.; Leitão, J. M.The Lupinus genus includes a number of important crop species. The use of defined nucleotide sequences for the analysis of genetic diversity among these species has revealed modest levels of diversity. The aim of this study was to access AFLP, ISSR and RAPD markers to evaluate the genetic diversity among L. albus, L. angustifolius, L. cosentinii, L. hispanicus, L. luteus, L. mutabilis, L. pilosus and L. polyphy...
