Eksempler på peanut

• By employing the modified procedures from other plant species, corresponding isolating protocols were established in peanut for development of microsatellites through this study.

• Only a few molecular markers have been identified to link with resistance genes in peanut and thus genetic improvement through marker assisted breeding is limited.

• The second part consists of eight chapters describing breeding of eight crops: wheat, maize, rice, sorghum, soybean, peanut, potato and cotton.

• Later instar larvae feed on developing peanut pods, prior to overwintering deep in the soil.

• Expression of the mutated peanut allergen construct will result in the production of hypoallergenic variants that can be used for immunotherapy.

• In peanutallergic individuals, subsequent exposure to peanut allergens induces inflammatory reactions largely governed by mast cells, basophils and eosinophils.

• Conventional immunotherapy for peanut allergy using crude peanut extracts is therefore not recommended currently because of the unacceptably high risk of anaphylaxis.

• Even though peanut is known to be an important agricultural commodity, genomic and molecular studies have lagged behind those on other legumes such as soybean.
