“…The common bean ( Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is one of the most important grain legumes in many areas of the world, providing a diet rich in protein, dietary fiber, essential micronutrients and phytochemicals for more than 500 million people [ 1 ]. The global cultivated surface of P. vulgaris reached 33.1 million hectares in the season 2019/2020, with an annual production of 28.9 million metric tons [ 2 ].…”

Macrophomina phaseolina and Rhizoctonia solani are considered two major soil-borne pathogens of Phaseolus vulgaris in Cuba. Their management is difficult, not only due to their intrinsic biology as soil-borne pathogens, but also because the lack of active ingredients available against these pathogens. Actinobacteria, a heterogeneous bacterial group traditionally known as actinomycetes have been reported as promising biological control agents (BCAs) in crop protection. Thus, the main objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of 60 actinobacterial strains as BCAs against M. phaseolina and R. solani in vitro by dual culture assays. The most effective strains were characterized according to their cellulolytic, chitinolytic and proteolytic extracellular enzymatic activity, as well as by their morphological and biochemical characters in vitro. Forty and 25 out of the 60 actinobacteria strains inhibited the mycelial growth of M. phaseolina and R. solani, respectively, and 18 of them showed a common effect against both pathogens. Significant differences were observed on their enzymatic and biochemical activity. The morphological and biochemical characters allow us to identify all our strains as species belonging to the genus Streptomyces. Streptomyces strains CBQ-EA-2 and CBQ-B-8 showed the highest effectiveness in vitro. Finally, the effect of seed treatments by both strains was also evaluated against M. phaseolina and R. solani infections in P. vulgaris cv. Quivicán seedlings. Treatments combining the two Streptomyces strains (CBQ-EA-2 + CBQ-B-8) were able to reduce significantly the disease severity for both pathogen infections in comparison with the non-treated and inoculated control. Moreover, they showed similar effect than that observed for Trichoderma harzianum A-34 and with Celest® Top 312 FS (Syngenta®; Basilea, Switzerland) treatments, which were included for comparative purposes.

“…Soybean grain [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is globally recognized for its significance as a protein and oil source in human diets and as a balanced animal feed (Singh et al, 2020). However, the consumption of soybean products is limited due to the presence of anti-nutritional compounds like lipoxygenase enzymes that trigger volatile compound reactions, resulting in unpleasant flavors in commercial soybean-based products (Carpentieri-Pipolo et al, 2021).…”

Lipoxygenase enzymes encoded by the Lox1, Lox2 and Lox3 genes play a crucial role in soybean grain, particularly in the development of off-flavors. Understanding molecular variation within Lox genes is essential for the improvement of soybean organoleptic traits. This study investigated the genetic variation in the internal regions of the Lox1, Lox2, and Lox3 genes in mature grain of commercially grown soybean cultivars in Mexico. Genomic DNA from a diverse panel of Mexican soybean cultivars was analyzed using resequencing techniques and in-silico analysis. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) within the Lox1, Lox2, and Lox3 genes were identified and characterized. The findings indicated that Lox3 gene displayed lower genetic variability compared to Lox1 and Lox2 genes, specifically, was identified a total of 26 SNPs in the Lox1 gene, 11 SNPs in the Lox2 gene, and 5 SNPs in the Lox3 gene among the examined cultivars. A non-synonymous SNP variant of the C/C genotype located in exon 6 of the Lox2 gene was associated with a destabilizing effect on the lipoxygenase 2 enzyme in the Guayparime S-10 and Huasteca 300 cultivars. These findings provide insights into the molecular variation of lipoxygenase-associated genes in Mexican soybean cultivars.

“…The tropics have been a source of many new food crops that have been introduced to other regions of the world: sorghum (which originated in Africa, Winchell,[4]), soybean (from China, Singh, [5]), mung bean (from China, Shahrajabian, [6]), peanut (from South America, Ozias-Akins, [7]), cassava (from Brazil, Bester, [8]), lima bean, and fava bean (from Peru, [9] Santos, 2008). Several plant families have their center of diversity in the tropics.…”

Tropical Plant Species and Technological Interventions for Improvement

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Tropical plants are an integral part of the ecosystem and are of significance for the well-being of humanity. Since their domestication in 10,000 BC, conventional breeding has played a crucial role in their conservation and widespread adaptation worldwide. Advancements in multi-omics approaches, that is, genomics, metabolomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, whole genome sequencing, and annotation, have led to the identification of novel genes involved in crucial metabolic pathways, thus helping to develop tropical plant varieties with desirable traits. Information retrieved from the pan-genome, super-pan-genome, and pan-transcriptome has further uplifted marker-assisted selection and molecular breeding. Tissue culture techniques have not only helped to conserve endangered plant species but have also opened up new avenues in terms of mass-scale propagation of ornamental plants. Transgenic technology is increasingly contributing to the betterment of tropical plants, and different plant species have been engineered for valuable traits. Likewise, genome editing is appearing to be a promising tool to develop tropical plants having the potential to fulfill future needs. Hence, this chapter highlights the importance of conventional and modern scientific approaches for the conservation and improvement of tropical plant species.
