Genome-Wide Association Study on Imputed Genotypes of 180 Eurasian Soybean <i>Glycine max</i> Varieties for Oil and Protein Contents in Seeds by Nadezhda A. Potapova, Irina V. Zorkoltseva, Alexander S. Zlobin, Andrey B. Shcherban, Anna V. Fedyaeva, Elena A. Salina, Gulnara R. Svishcheva, Tatiana I. Aksenovich, Yakov A. Tsepilov

“…This dataset encompassed 87 Russian and European cultivars and 93 breeding lines from Western Siberia. We identified 11 novel loci significantly associated with oil and protein content in seeds (<i>p</i>-value < 1.5 × 10⁻⁶), including one locus on chromosome 11 linked to protein content and 10 loci associated with oil content (chromosomes 1, 5, 11, 16, 17, and 18). …”

Earliness and morphotypes of common wheat cultivars of Western and Eastern Siberia by S. E. Smolenskaya, V. M. Efimov, Y. V. Kruchinina, B. F. Nemtsev, G. Y. Chepurnov, E. S. Ovchinnikova, I. A. Belan, E. V. Zuev, Chenxi Zhou, V. V. Piskarev, N. P. Goncharov

“…Small grain size cultivars are more typical of Eastern than Western Siberia. The retrospective analysis based on the cultivars’ zoning time included in the “State Register for Selection Achievements Admitted for Usage” brought us to the conclusion that the earliness/lateness of modern Siberian commercial cultivars was not regionally but rather zonally-associated (taiga, subtaiga, forest-steppe and steppe zones).…”

A karyomorphological study on Actaea acuminata, A. asiatica, and A. erythrocarpa (Ranunculaceae) by Elizaveta Yu. Mitrenina, Andrey S. Erst, Denis A. Krivenko, Tatiana N. Veklich, Tatiana V. Leonova, Olga A. Chernyagina, Valentin V. Yakubov, Kunli Xiang, Yuan-Yuan Ling, Wei Wang

“…The chromosome set of A. erythrocarpa was investigated in five regions of Russia; its structure proved to be similar among all the analyzed populations and is described by formula 2n = 16 = 10m + 4sm + 2t, consistently with previous findings about this species in Western Siberia. There are differences among the populations in the number and localization of secondary constrictions. …”
