“…Considering insect color and scent preferences, employing biological methods to cultivate novel plant species or create an environment through physical or chemical means can attract insects, increasing pollinator attraction. Consequently, this improves plant pollination efficiency and seed set rates and facilitates pest entrapment for effective biological control (Peng et al 2022).…”

Flower color and scent, crucial qualitative characteristics of ornamental plants, display extensive variation. These distinct pigments and scents play a key role in attracting specific pollinators. While previous research primarily delved into the synthetic regulatory mechanisms of individual traits and their respective attraction to insects, recent studies unveil an interconnectedness between flower color and scent through transcriptional regulatory networks. Moreover, evidence suggests that both color and scent actively contribute to insect attraction. This review summarizes the co-regulation and synthesis of pigments and scents, highlighting their pivotal roles in pollinator attraction. The insights provided will serve as valuable references for applications in metabolic engineering, novel variety breeding, and insect and pest detection and management.

“…In plants, inter simple sequence repeats or ISSR markers are a lot of in demand, as a result of they are abundant in quantity, highly reproducible and polymorphic, and relatively more informative (Zietkiewicz et al, 1994). ISSR markers are present in nuclear genome, provide a genotyping system with stability, reliability and dominancy (Peng et al, 2006). ISSR utilizes presence throughout the entire genome of simple sequence repeats (SSR) with tandem repeats motifs composed of 1 to 7 bases and reveal information that indicates the length variation amongst adjacent microsatellites.…”

Genetic characterization of plant genetic resources is a pre-requisite for a strategic breeding program. Bottle gourd is an important cucurbit grown throughout India for its tender fruits used for culinary purpose. For the present investigation twenty-four genotypes of bottle gourd were collected from Eastern India to examine the magnitude of genetic diversity based upon 16 quantitative traits and seven ISSR (Inter simple sequence repeats) markers. In morphological study genotypes performed significantly in all traits, however BRBG-65 (591.10 q/ha) was proved to be high yielder with other attributing traits in pooled analysis of two growing seasons than compare to the all three check varieties of the region. Almost all the traits under study showed high percentage of genotypic coefficient of variation, phenotypic coefficient of variation and heritability with genetic advancement. Quantitative traits like fruit weight, number of fruits per vine and yield of marketable fruits per vine shown strong character association with yield per hectare. Principal component analysis on quantitative traits depicted six principal components, accounted for 79.33% of the total variations. The first two components accounted for 44.92 cumulative percent of the total variation, which signifies a high degree of correlation between the analyzed traits. In the molecular study, average polymorphism percentage was obtained by ISSR marker pattern studied by seven primers. Total 48 reproducible amplicons were generated of an average around 6.85 amplicon per primer. The values of average polymorphic information content, major allele frequency and major gene diversity were obtained in wide range. Wide range of value regarding Jaccard’s similarity coefficient was also ensured through ISSR markers. Dendrogram and similarity matrix produced from ISSR data then compared and concluded the discrimination among genotypes within these clusters. Most genotypes studied in the present experiment differed with their geographic origin. The investigation highlights the potential utilization of these germplasm for further genetic analysis.

“…In comparison, ISSR markers have successfully surmounted many of these challenges (Reddy et al 2002). They offer the distinct advantages of being relatively cost-effective, showcasing high levels of polymorphism, and exhibiting strong reproducibility (Peng et al 2006).…”

Evolution of genus is accompanied by ecological diversi cation. The majority of species grow in open, sunny, rather dry sites in arid and moderately humid climates. However, Allium species have adapted for many other ecological niches. Classical approaches for the identi cation of Allium cultivars are based on morphological traits. The assessment of these traits is di cult and their evaluation can be subjective considering that most of these cultivars are closely related. Hence, this study of Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) sequencing and four barcoding regions, matK, rbcL, trnH-psbA, trnL and Inter Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR) were researched in onion, Allium cepa L. (Alliaceae) collected from three different cultivation sites. The results established noticeable hereditary divergence among the three cultivars. In ITS and matK, BDUT 1453, BDUT 1454 and BDUT 1455 were independent of each other and formed three clusters. In rbcL, BDUT 1453 formed an independent cluster from the cluster of BDUT 1454 and BDUT 1455. But in trnH-psbA, BDUT 1454 formed an independent cluster and BDUT 1453 and BDUT 1455 were closely placed whereas trnL showed all the three forming a cluster wherein BDUT 1453 and BDUT 1454 were placed closely in a sub-cluster. In ISSR, BDUT 1454 and BDUT 1455 formed a single cluster and BDUT 1453 diverged from it. Even though the tested cultivars belong to the same species they showed genetic divergence among themselves.
