Between 2013 and 2018, partners in 25 countries, heirs to the globetrotting legacy of Nikolai Vavilov, undertook seed collecting expeditions targeting CWR of 28 crops of global significance for agriculture. Here, we describe the implementation of the 25 national collecting programs and present the key results. A total of 4587 unique seed samples from at least 355 CWR taxa were collected, conserved ex situ, safety duplicated in national and international genebanks, and made available through the Multilateral System (MLS) of the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (Plant Treaty). Collections of CWR were made for all 28 targeted crops. Potato and eggplant were the most collected genepools, although the greatest number of primary genepool collections were made for rice. Overall, alfalf...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cryopreservation of five peanut varieties conserved in the INIAP Germplasm Bank, testing cryopreservation methods, evaluating the germination percentage of whole seeds and embryonic shoots. Subsequently, two quantitative variables, shoot length and root, were evaluated. The average germination percentage of varieties and treatments was higher when embryonic axes were isolated with 99.31% than 86.06% seeds. The best germination percentage of the five varieties for seeds and embryonic shoots was obtained by the Peruvian variety with 88.13% and 92.50%. The best treatments by variety for the germination of whole seeds and embryonic axes were obtained by the treatment (desiccation and NL) for whole seeds (GS2) with 95.42% and embryonic axes wit...

Por sus propiedades es muy apreciada y consumida, por lo que es importante determinar la naturaleza de sus beneficios. En este estudio se evaluó la composición fisicoquímica y el contenido de los compuestos funcionales responsables de la actividad antioxidante de la planta en la accesión ECU-20229 del Banco de Germoplasma del Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Agropecuarias (INIAP). El estudio se realizó en Italquí provincia de Imbabura y en Tumbaco provincia de Pichincha. Se analizó la planta entera y sus partes (raíz, tallo y hojas), con la finalidad de determinar dónde se encuentra el mayor contenido de proteína, grasa, minerales y los compuestos funcionales. Se realizó el análisis proximal, concentración de proteína, minerales, polifenoles y flavonoides totales, así como la capacidad antioxidante. El contenido de los compuestos analizados fue estadísticamente diferentes entre las partes de la...
