Yielding fruits and palm hearts, peach palm (Bactris gasipaes) was a staple food crop for many pre-Columbian Amerindian communities in the lowland humid neotropics. The gene pool of cultivated peach palm and its wild relatives is rich in diversity but is subject to genetic erosion creating an urg...
The Planteome project (http://www.planteome.org) provides a suite of reference and species-specific ontologies for plants and annotations to genes and phenotypes. Ontologies serve as common standards for semantic integration of a large and growing corpus of plant genomics, phenomics and genetics ...

DNA variation was studied at the intra- andinterspecific levels within the genus Passiflora, with particular emphasis on the subgenusTacsonia and its relationship with the subgenusPassiflora. AFLP fingerprints were generated for35 accessions from 21 species, 14 of which belong to subgenusTacsonia...
