Assessment of carbon metabolism of Coffee Kawisari hybrid challenged by Hemilei...
Guerra-Guimarães, Leonor; Carrera, Jéfyne; Santos, Marina do Rosário; Pinheiro, Carla; E-MohsinaFerdous, Manzur; Diniz, Inês; Loureiro, AndreiaPlants have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to coordinate carbon metabolism during growth and development both under optimal and stress conditions. In coffee-rust biotrophic interactions, plants try to limit pathogen access to nutrients (e.g., sugars and sugar derivatives) and trigger immune responses, while Hemileia vastatrix (Hv) attempts to circumvent plant defences and control the host's primary metabolism...
Flowering under stress: phenomics and proteomics approaches to chickpea grain y...
Pinheiro, Carla; Duarte, Isabel; Guerra-Guimarães, Leonor; Ribeiro, Isa C.; Carvalho, Mª Graça; Planchon, Sébastien; Renaut, Jenny; Roitsch, ThomasChickpea (Cicer arietinum) is a major player in the FAO Zero Hunger program “toolkit”. It is the second most cultivated food legume, a source of sustainable protein (and other nutrients) and contributes to improved soil health and lower fertilization input. Grain yield, seed protein content and nutritional quality were found to be largely affected by Genotype x Environment. In the Mediterranean regions, higher ...
EPPN2020/FLOWERINGUNDERSTRESS – sensor and deep physiological phenotyping of te...
Pinheiro, Carla; Guerra-Guimarães, Leonor; Melo, José; Duarte, Isabel; Roitsch, ThomasChickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) are included in the Zero Hunger program, are the world’s second most cultivated food legume, and have one of the best nutritional compositions among the grain legumes. Drought typically reduces grain yield, namely when occurring during pod set and seed filling, which is further reduced in combination with elevated temperatures. With this EPPN2020 project, we focused the phenotypin...
