CONSERVATION OF CROP WILD RELATIVES’ DIVERSITY IN THE FERTILE CRESCENT By Wathek Zair A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Supervisor Dr Nigel Maxted School of Biosciences College of Life and Environmental Sciences The University of Birmingham October 2019 1 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT This thesis aims to enhance the conservation of CWR diversity in the Fertile Crescent. CWR are species of plants that are genetically close to cultivated crops. They are important sources of plant genetic materials that can be used for crop improvements. The Fertile Crescent is an important centre as it is a centre of crop domestication. Finding CWR in the Fertile Crescent region was carried out through creating a checklist of CWR, prioritisation, collecting passport data, ex-situ and in-situ gap analysis, climate change analysis, and threat analysis. A priority list of 220 CWR taxa was established following 12 prioritisation criteria. The priority list was revised and a new priority list consisted of 441 CWR were established. 23,878 occurrence records were collated. Ten genetic reserves are recommended. 70% of the CWR examined taxa are represented in gene banks. The most important areas for further collecting for ex-situ conservation are located in the west and south of Turkey. CAPFITOGEN result indicates that the top three sites with the highest CWR taxa concentration are found in eastern Turkey. The fourth highest site is found in Latakia in Syria. The result of the climate change analysis revealed that Aegilops bicornis, a wild relative of bread wheat, and Triticum monococcum, a wild relative of wheat, are expected to be highly impacted by climate change. The IUCN red assessment result indicates that out of the 88 taxa assessed, one taxon was assessed as Critically Endangered, 18 taxa as Data Deficient, three taxa as Endangered, 41 as Least Concern and 25 as Near Threatened. All these components will help the Fertile Crescent meet its targets in conserving CWR diversity as well as ensuring CWRs are preserved to prevent and tackle global food insecurity. Future work is to fill the gaps in conservation outlined in this research. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thanks to Dr Nigel Maxted who believed in me and without whom this Ph.D. would not have been completed.

Igor S. KRYVORUCHKO* Department of Bioengineering, Faculty of Engineering and Architecture, Kafkas University, Kars, Turkey Received: 04.10.2016 Accepted/Published Online: 28.05.2017 Final Version: 28.09.2017 Abstract: Zn deficiency is widespread in traditional areas of chickpea cultivation worldwide. It limits chickpea productivity and causes significant losses to the economies of the world’s largest chickpea exporters. This review may be of interest to researchers who would like to contribute to the improvement of chickpea cultivation on Zn-depleted soils in an environmentally sustainable manner, namely via identification of genotypes with superior symbiotic performance under Zn-limited conditions. The primary aim of the current work is to familiarize the readers with the biology and symbiotic characteristics of chickpea, and also to provide the necessary background on Zn as an essential nutrient for symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF). Special attention has been paid to the choice of rhizobial strains compatible with chickpea. Strains that can serve as an inoculum for simultaneous analysis of many genetically diverse chickpea lines have been suggested. The genotypes listed in this work can be good starting material for identification of chickpea lineages useful for unraveling the molecular basis of Zn-use efficiency, SNF efficiency, or both. Key words: Chickpea, Cicer arietinum, symbiotic nitrogen fixation, nodulation, rhizobia, zinc, micronutrient deficiency 1. Introduction on its position in international trade.

It is widely recognized that many of the world’s protected areas contain CWR diversity. Despite this, it has not yet proved possible to undertake significant actions to conserve the CWR they contain. Many challenges and obstacles need to be addressed in order to improve this situation. Recent initiatives have started to address these challenges and uncovered some key lessons. Still, the need for action is urgent and the paper concludes by drawing attention to the need for a global approach to conserving priority and threatened CWR in the wild. INTRODUCTION worth noting that the same study found breeders’ use of CWR taxa was increasing year on year, even though it Crop wild relatives (CWR) - wild plant species closely was recognized that they were still far from being related to crops to which they may contribute beneficial systematically exploited. genes - constitute an enormous reservoir of genetic variation for crop improvement and are an important Some idea of the scale of benefits may be obtained from socio-economic resource. Genes from wild plants have published estimates referring to a selected number of provided crops with resistance to many pests and crops.

It was found that the herbarium contains a large and varied number of plants from different parts of Iraq and in different and varied environments. It was collected and arranged according to a specific system in the herbarium to remain an important source for all graduate students and researchers to take advantage of these plants. Also, the flowering and fruiting periods of these plants in Iraq were recorded for different regions. Most of these plants begin to flower in the spring and thrive in fields and farms. Keywords: Fabaceae; Herbarium; Iraq; Natural; History; Museum 1. Introduction Leguminosae, Fabaceae or Papilionaceae, which was called as legume, pea, or bean Family, belong to the Order of Fabales [1]. The Fabaceae family have 727 genera also 19,325 species, which contents herbs, shrubs, trees, and climbers [2]. The distribution of fabaceae family was variety especially in cold mountainous regions for Europe, Asia and North America, It is also abundant in Central Asia and is characterized by great economic importance.

The double-podded chickpea has a considerable yield and stability advantage over the single-podded chickpea. The study aimed at (i) integrating extra-large-seeded and double-podded traits in the kabuli chickpea, (ii) increasing variation by transgressive segregations and (iii) estimating the heritability of the 100-seed weight along with important agro-morphological traits in F2 and F3 populations. For these objectives, the large-seeded chickpea, Sierra, having a single pod and unifoliolate leaves, was crossed with the small-seeded CA 2969, having double pods and imparipinnate leaves.

Here, we report accurate estimates of genome size in 99 accessions from 26 species of Avena . We demonstrate that the average genome size of C genome diploid species (2C=10.26 pg) is 15% larger than that of A genome species (2C=8.95 pg) and that this difference likely accounts for a progression of size among tetraploid species, where AB < AC < CC (average 2C=16.76 pg, 18.60 pg, and 21.78 pg, respectively).

BOUFFORD2 Harvard University Herbaria 22 Divinity Avenue Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138-2020 [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT Dot maps are provided to depict the distribution at the county level of the taxa of Magnoliophyta: Fabaceae growing outside of cultivation in the six New England states of the northeastern United States. The maps treat 172 taxa (species, subspecies, varieties, and hybrids, but not forms) based primarily on specimens in the major herbaria of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut, with most data derived from the holdings of the New England Botanical Club Herbarium (NEBC). Brief synonymy (to account for names used in standard manuals and floras for the area and on herbarium specimens), habitat, chromosome information, and common names are also provided. KEY WORDS: flora, New England, atlas, distribution, Fabaceae This article is the eleventh in a series (Angelo & Boufford 1996, 1998, 2000, 2007, 2010, 2011a, 2011b, 2012a, 2012b, 2012c) that presents the distributions of the vascular flora of New England in the form of dot distribution maps at the county level (Figure 1). Seven more articles are planned. The atlas is posted on the internet at http://neatlas.org, where it will be updated as new information becomes available. This project encompasses all vascular plants (lycophytes, pteridophytes and spermatophytes) at the rank of species, subspecies, and variety growing independent of cultivation in the six New England states.
