Tef Improvement ) The question of combating the problem of lodging has long been a ) sustaining major objective of the overall national tef improvement program. But the lodging resistant tef varieties have remained elusive. Kebebew Assefa (PhD) National Tef Research Coordinator Similar to other worldwide popular cereals, it is possible to develop high yielding tef varieties with good grain quality and other desired traits— variety ‘Quncho’ is a testimony of what can be done in tef improvement. Hailu Tefera (PhD) Breeder/Consultant, IITA National Tef Research Coordinator (1998-2006) Development of rapid and cheap screening techniques to identify various stress-tolerant cultivars and utilize efficient techniques for developing sup- erior cultivars are essential for overcoming present constraints. Seyfu Ketema (PhD) Executive Director, ASARECA National Tef Research Coordinator (-1995) The world has seen significant increases in the productivity major cereal crops such as wheat and rice. As a member of this family of Grasses, tef is no exception, and therefore has a similar potential for improvement. Kebebew A., Solomon C., Zerihun T. (Eds. Tareke Berhe (PhD) Tef Value Chain Adviser | downloaded: 13.3.2017 Ethiopian Agriculture Transformation Agency (ATA) The recent progress in tef improvement is encouraging. We need to implement useful techniques developed for major crops to further increase the productivity of this staple food crop of Ethiopia.

Dedication This Proceedings is dedicated to the late Dr. MelaK Hail Mengesha (1935-2009), the first tef researcher in Ethiopia Foreword v Foreword This proceedings on ‘Achievements and Prospects of tef Improvement’ is the outcome of the Second International Tef Workshop held at Debre Zeit (Ethiopia), the location which represents the major tef growing areas in the country as well as the oldest and biggest center on tef research. As an indigenous crop, the bulk of tef research is carried out in the country by scientists based at various higher-learning and research institutions. Hence, unlike major crops of the world such as wheat and rice, research on tef benefited little from modern improvement techniques. However, in the recent years, there is an increasing interest by several researchers and funding organizations in developed nations to promote tef research and development through implementation of modern genetic and genomic tools. The recent efforts and progresses made on tef research and development were presented and discussed in detail at the workshop. The tef research and development in Ethiopia has recently shown tremendous improvement. This is witnessed by the decision of the Ethiopian government to award a Gold Medal in November 2012 to our Institute for the discovery and promotion of a very popular Quncho variety. At this juncture, I would like to congratulate all involved in research and development of tef as the achievement was obtained due to concerted efforts of the tef community. The editors of the proceedings did a wonderful job of undertaking the painstaking task of editing all 23 manuscripts presented at the workshop. In addition, the proceedings include a 44-point roadmap for future tef research and development which can be used as a guideline for researchers, development workers and policy makers. I would like to extend my thanks to sponsors of the workshop and the publication of the proceedings. Adefris Teklewold (PhD) Director, Crop Research Process Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research Prefacevii Preface Tef [Eragrostistef (Zucc.) Trotter] is a cereal crop extensively cultivated in Ethiopia with annual coverage of about 2.8 million hectares. The crop harbors several useful traits both for farmers and consumers. Some of these beneficial traits are: i) the plant is tolerant to extreme environmental conditions; ii) the seeds are not attacked by storage pests; and iii) the seeds are gluten-free, and hence considered as a healthy food. Despite all these advantages, scientific improvement on the crop has lagged far behindthe level made for the major cereals such as wheat and rice. Consequently, tef is considered as an orphan (or under-studied) crop, and its yield is one of the lowest compared to other major world cereals. In order to increase tef productivity, various attempts were made using both conventional and modern breeding techniques. Using the conventional breeding techniques, about 32 improved cultivars have been released to the farming community. The modern techniques so far include marker development towards marker-assisted breeding and TILLING (Targeting Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes). The tef genomics research has also developed PCR-based markers in attempts towards utilizing them in marker-assisted selection (MAS). The Tef Genome Sequencing Project has also been initiated in order to obtain substantial genomic and transcriptome sequences. In general, these biotechnological and genomic tools would play key role in designing tef for the future challenging environments. Cropping systems and agronomic studies have also been done at many locations representing different agro-ecological zones. Moreover, extensive studies have been made on the utilization of tef both for human food and livestock feed. Mechanization especially the harvesting process is the outstanding problem in tef cultivation as tef is severely affected by lodging. Significant progresses have also been made in socio-economic studies and dissemination of tef technologies to farming communities. Hence, this international workshop on tef research and development was held i) to review previous studies and achievements made on tef research and development, and ii) to set strategies for future research. At this juncture, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to the Syngenta Foundation for Sustainable Agriculture, the Ministry of Science and Technology, Sasakawa Global 2000, the Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research, and the University of Bern for sponsoring the workshop, and the Syngenta Foundation for Sustainable Agriculture for covering the entire cost of printing the proceedings.

Among them, some species are of economic interest since they can act as a biological control for some agricultural pests whereas other species are phytophagous and can damage crops. Chnootriba argus (Coccinellidae, Epilachnini) has large heterochromatic pericentromeric blocks on all chromosomes, including both sexual chromosomes. Classical digestion of total genomic DNA using restriction endonucleases failed to find the satellite DNA located on these heterochromatic regions. Cloning of C0t-1 DNA resulted in the isolation of a repetitive DNA with a repeat unit of six base pairs, TTAAAA. The amount of TTAAAA repeat in the C. argus genome was about 20%. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis and digestion of chromosomes with the endonuclease Tru9I revealed that this repetitive DNA could be considered as the putative pericentromeric satellite DNA (satDNA) in this species. The presence of this satellite DNA was tested in other species of the tribe Epilachnini and it is also present in Epilachna paenulata. In both species, the TTAAAA repeat seems to be the main satellite DNA and it is located on the pericentromeric region on all chromosomes.

  • Distribution of Oscinellinae (Diptera: Chloropidae) in the Danish Landscape Lise Brunberg Nielsen
    Distribution of Oscinellinae (Diptera: Chloropidae) in the Danish landscape Lise Brunberg Nielsen Nielsen, Lise Brunberg: Distribution of Oscinellinae (Diptera: Chloropidae) in the Danish Landscape. Ent. Meddr 82: 39-62, Copenhagen, Denmark, 2014. ISSN 0013-8851 Abstract About 29,700 Oscinellinae were collected by means of sweep net, water traps and pitfalls in a variety of uncultivated habitats in Denmark mainly in Jutland. So far 75 species belonging to 21 genera are re­ corded from Denmark. Eleven species are new to the Danish fauna. Morphological details of Aphanotrigonum brachypterum, A. hungaricum, A. nigripes, Conioscinella gallarum, lncertella albipalpis, I. nigrifrons, I. kerteszi, I. scotica and Oscinella angustipennis are presented. The distribu­ tion of Oscinellinae in the Danish landscape is discussed. In Denmark, farmland dominates, so the two most abundant Oscinellarspecies of ara­ ble land, Oscinella frit and 0. vastator, are also predominant in most nat­ ural habitats. Small and larger uncultivated areas, however, making up only 25 % of the Danish landscape, contain a rich fauna of Oscinel­ lines. The advantage of different sampling methods combined is demonstrated. Sammendrag Fordelingen af fritf1uer (Diptera: Chloropidae) i det danske landskab.

In recent years there have been numerous studies focused on the anticancer action of cantharidin and its derivatives. Despite the recent interest in blister beetles, cytogenetic and molecular studies in this group are scarce and most of them use only classical chromosome staining techniques. The main aim of our study was to provide new information in Citation: Ruiz-Torres, L.; Mora, P.; Meloidae. In this study, cytogenetic and molecular analyses were applied for the first time in the Ruiz-Mena, A.; Vela, J.; Mancebo, F.J.; family Meloidae. We applied fluorescence staining with DAPI and the position of ribosomal DNA in Montiel, E.E.; Palomeque, T.; Lorite, P. Hycleus scutellatus was mapped by FISH. Hycleus is one of the most species-rich genera of Meloidae Cytogenetic Analysis, but no cytogenetic data have yet been published for this particular genus.
