Diploid inbred-based hybrids: fast-forward breeding approach in potatoes.
Physiol Mol Biol Plants
December 2024
Following the identification of the self-compatibility gene () in diploid potatoes two decades ago, the breeding of inbred based diploid hybrid potatoes made its way. Tetraploid potatoes have a long history of cultivation through domestication and selection. Tetrasomic inheritance, heterozygosity and clonal propagation complicate genetic studies, resulting in a low genetic gain in potato breeding.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the antimicrobial properties of fenugreek extracts from leaves and seeds, focusing on their effectiveness against oral pathogens compared to the commonly used antiseptic chlorhexidine (CHX).
- The research utilized various methods including minimal inhibitory concentration and confocal laser scanning microscopy to assess the antimicrobial efficacy of specific fenugreek compounds (FA, DIO, and FU) against multiple bacterial strains.
- Results indicated that fenugreek extracts exhibited significant antimicrobial activity similar to CHX, suggesting they could serve as effective herbal alternatives for managing oral and periodontal infections.
Elevated reactive species and AGEs contribute to deregulation of transcription factors e.g., NF-κB and Nrf2 in diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).
