EST-derived SSR markers in Jatropha curcas L.: development, characterization, polymorphism, and transferability across the species/genera (2011, background): “The seed contains 30– 39% oil content (Kaushik et al. 2007).”
Genetic analysis of Jatropha species and interspecific hybrids of Jatropha curcas using nuclear and organelle specific markers (2009, background): “Genetic variability and divergence studies in seed traits and oil content revealed variability for these traits (Kaushik et al. 2007).”
Plant-water relationships and growth strategies of Jatropha curcas L. seedlings under different levels of drought stress (2009, background): “Genetic differences 302 between accessions were related with significant differences in seed morphology (e.g. 303 Kaushik et al., 2007; Mukta and Murthy, 2008) and in seedling (Ginwal et al., 2005) and 304 plant height (Rao et al., 2008).”
Genetic gains in physic nut using selection indexes (2012, background): “Moreover, there are reports of positive correlation between grain weight and oil yield (Ginwal et al., 2004; Kaushik et al., 2007; Rao et al., 2008; Spinelli et al., 2010), which, if confirmed, can lead to reduced oil content after several selecting cycles for grain yield.”
Biomass production and allocation in Jatropha curcas L. seedlings under different levels of drought stress (2010, background): “[30,31] indicating predominant effect of seed dimensions and environment on growth above genetic differences between accessions.”
Drought stress response in Jatropha curcas: Growth and physiology (2013, background): “However, phenotypic variations are described for physiological and biochemical traits (Heller, 1996; Ginwal et al., 2004; Kaushik et al., 2007; Rao et al., 2008; Popluechai et al., 2009).”
Efficient in vitro plant regeneration from shoot apices and gene transfer by particle bombardment in Jatropha curcas (2010, background): “The plant is found in the tropics and subtropics where it is used to reclaim land, fence household land, and produce feedstuff, soap, pesticide, and drugs (e.g. Kaushik et al. 2007).”
Genetic associations, variability and diversity in seed characters, growth, reproductive phenology and yield in Jatropha curcas (L.) accessions (2008, background): “Kaushik et al. (2007) have reported divergence in seed oil traits of Jatropha from a limited number of locally collected accessions.”
Claims and facts on Jatropha curcas L. : global Jatropha curcas evaluation. breeding and propagation programme (2007, background): “Reported genetic factors included seed weight and seed oil content (Ginwal et al., 2004; Kaushik et al., 2007), although 42 Indian accessions of J. curcas showed modes levels of genetic diversity with 400 RAPD (Random Amplification of Polymorphic DNA; genetic fingerprinting technique) 42% molecular…”
