Even basic seed germination can stand in the way of using crop wild relatives in breeding and agriculture.

A new Practice Abstract from Einav Mayzlish-Gati and her team at Volcani Institute shares protocols to overcome these hurdles.

This summer, a team from @inrae-france.bsky.social and the Conservatoire Botanique National de Corse explored Corsica to find wild Brassica relatives.

Such missions reveal how plants adapt to local climates and point to regions crucial for conserving genetic diversity.

Our partner from Çukurova Üniversitesi will explore Turkey’s diverse landscapes to locate and sample wild relatives of wheat that carry traits potentially crucial for future food security.
📸 Swipe through to see the stunning Turkish landscape and some of the wild wheat relatives up close.

Wild beets are growing nicely for @projectpro-wild.bsky.social at @bokuvienna.bsky.social Tulln. So far, success rate of 90% in getting accessions to germinate.

#WildBeets #PlantResearch #HorizonEU

Two weeks after seeding, the wild beets for @projectpro-wild.bsky.social are sprouting at @bokuvienna.bsky.social Tulln. 🌱 Check out the vibrant red stalks – this is due to the action of betacyanins, the same pigments that give red beets their beautiful colour.

#WildBeets #PlantResearch #HorizonEU

Planting wild beets at @bokuvienna.bsky.social Tulln for @projectpro-wild.bsky.social! Stay tuned for updates on their growth journey!
