Purpose: The purpose of this study was to offer useful information for improving women’s beauty self-images by analyzing personal color choices in women’s fashions and determining the correlation between color matching and personal fashion color choices in manicures and pedicures.Methods: The research subjects included 32 women aged 20–50 years who lived in capital area and whose personal color fashion choices were determined. The data were analyzed with frequency analysis, a χ2-test, and a one-way ANOVA using SPSS WIN 25.0.Results: Considering the personal color choices, they were high in “summer types” for L* values of skin, high in “winter types” for L* values of hands and feet, and high in “fall types” for values a* and b* of skin, hands, and feet. Also, with regard to matching tones for hands and feet, the personal color choices were mostly “spring types” with warm spring-type tones, summer types with cool summer-type tones, “fall types” with warm fall-type tones, and “winter types” with cool winter-type tones.Conclusion: The results of this study suggested the matched tones for hands and feet are similar to the personal color fashion choices. These findings support a theoretical basis for harmonious color matching when choosing colors in manicure and pedicure nail art. The findings of this study may assist with beauty styling and self-images of women in this fashion era.

Polymorphism for vernalization requirement has been observed within a population of wild oats, Avena fatua L., grown under greenhouse conditions. One group of plants was early flowering ("spring type," [Formula: see text]), whereas another was late flowering ("winter type," [Formula: see text]). Vernalization of the winter type was obtained by germinating seeds for 2 weeks at 4 °C and resulted in shortening the time to heading by 50 days. However, this polymorphism was not observed in the field when plants germinated before mid-May. Hence, vernalization requirements did not appear to have any adverse or beneficial effects on time to heading and may be a neutral character in this population. Nevertheless, the frequency of the winter type in the population increased significantly over 6 years. Mechanisms are suggested to account for this phenomenon.

Russian dandelion [Taraxacum kok-saghyz (TKS)] is a latex-producing, temperate species that has the potential to be grown as a source of natural rubber in North America. Flowering habit varies within the species; winter-type plants require a cold period or vernalization to flower, whereas spring-type plants flower without this treatment. Because flowering habit is correlated with rubber yield, understanding the genetic factors governing the trait would be useful for breeding. The objective of this research was to determine the inheritance of vernalization requirement in TKS. Winter-type and spring-type plants were intercrossed to create the F1, F2, and backcross generations and progeny segregation ratios were analyzed. A genetic model with three major genes is proposed, where a dominant allele at locus A, in combination with homozygous recessive alleles at either or both of two loci, B and C, confers winter type, whereas spring type is conferred by homozygous recessive alleles at A, regardless of genotype at B or C, or dominant alleles at A, B, and C.

Oilseed rape, an important source of vegetable plant oil, is threatened by Verticillium longisporum, a soil-borne vascular fungal pathogen so far occurring in oilseed rape growing regions in Europe and Canada. Despite intensive research into V. longisporum in the last decades in controlled conditions, basic knowledge is still lacking about the time course of infection, temporal pattern of colonization, and disease development on field-grown plants. In this study, colonization of roots, stem bases, and stems with V. longisporum was followed by real-time PCR from the seedling until mature plant stages in 2-year field experiments with microsclerotia-infested plots and either spring-type or autumn-sown (winter-type) oilseed rape cultivars. The temporal pattern of plant colonization differed between greenhouse and field-grown oilseed rape and between spring- and winter-type plants in the field. Within 28 to 35 days, a continuous systemic colonization with V. longisporum was detected in roots and shoots of young plants in the greenhouse associated with significant stunting. In contrast, real-time PCR analysis of V. longisporum in field-grown winter oilseed rape plants displayed a strongly discontinuous colonization pattern with low fungal growth in roots during juvenile growth stages until flowering, whereas in spring oilseed rape, no root colonization was observed until early flowering stages. Hence, stem colonization with the pathogen required 6 months in winter oilseed rape and 1 month in spring oilseed rape from the time of initial root infection. The different patterns of stem colonization were related to soil temperature. Average soil temperatures in 5-cm depth during 7 days before sampling time points from 2 years of field experiments displayed a significant relationship with fungal colonization in the root. A climate chamber inoculation trial with soil temperature levels that varied from 6 to 18°C revealed a threshold temperature of >12°C in the soil to enable root invasion. This soil condition is reached in winter-type oilseed rape in the field in Germany either until the eight-leaf stage in early autumn or after pod stage in spring, whereas in spring-sown oilseed rape early root infection is delayed owing to the cool conditions during juvenile growth stages. The delay of stem colonization in field-grown oilseed rape may explain the lack of stunting as observed in the greenhouse and the previously reported inconsistent effects of V. longisporum on yield levels and seed quality, which were confirmed in this study.

From 1970 to nowadays, breeders have improved oilseed rape (Brassica napus) in many ways: creation of double low varieties (free of erucic acid and with a low content in glucosinolates), increase of the seed yield and quality of seeds and improvement of resistance to diseases. All this work helped oilseed rape to become one of the most produced oilseed crop in the world. However, this intensive breeding on quality has reduced the genetic diversity of winter oilseed rape. In this study, a group of four breeding companies (RAGT, Limagrain, Syngenta, Euralis) called “GIE Colza” has been working with INRAE (National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and Environment, France) on the FSRSO project “Printiver”. This project aimed at enlarging the genetic variability available in winter-type oilseed rape through crossing with spring-type materials to create lines with a winter-type behavior (need of vernalization) and a genetic background that has introgressed spring-type genetic diversity. Two pools have been created and selected for their need of vernalization, date of flowering, yield and other agronomic traits. The Group tested these two pools in multilocal trials. The results show interesting per se value and combining ability.

Verticillium longisporum is a soilborne vascular fungal pathogen that has spread throughout the European oilseed rape cultivation area since the 1980s and was detected in canola fields in Canada in 2014. In a series of greenhouse and field inoculation experiments using V. longisporum-resistant and susceptible cultivars of winter and spring types of oilseed rape, the present study investigated the potential of V. longisporum dissemination by seeds of Brassica napus. Greenhouse inoculation studies with a DsRed-labeled isolate of V. longisporum confirmed the systemic growth of the pathogen from roots to seeds. Further monitoring of plant colonization in the greenhouse with a species-specific real-time polymerase chain reaction assay verified the pathogen growth from roots to stem bases, pods, and seeds in root-inoculated plants. The frequency of recovery of viable colonies of V. longisporum from seeds harvested from greenhouse-grown inoculated plants ranged from 0.08 to 13.3%. The frequency of seed transmission in the greenhouse differed in oilseed rape cultivars varying in susceptibility to V. longisporum. Subsequent studies on transmission of the disease into the offspring revealed that only 1.7 to 2.3% of plants showed disease symptoms as confirmed by the formation of microsclerotia in the stems. Results from field-grown plants differed from the greenhouse studies. The degree of seed transmission in the field was dependent on the crop type. Although only low concentrations of DNA of V. longisporum were detectable in seeds harvested from severely infected winter oilseed rape, significantly greater concentrations of fungal DNA were found in seeds of spring-type oilseed rape, at similar soil conditions and inoculum densities. Correspondingly, plating seeds that were harvested from infected plants on agar yielded viable V. longisporum colonies only from seeds of the spring-type but not of the winter-type plants. Lack of seed infection in the winter-type crop was confirmed in two seasons. Equally, none of the offspring grown from seeds from severely diseased winter oilseed rape plants developed symptoms of Verticillium stem striping. The results suggest that the rate of seed transmission of V. longisporum depends on the degree of plant colonization, which is significantly faster under greenhouse than field conditions and in a spring-sown crop compared with an autumn-sown oilseed rape crop. According to our studies, disease transmission by seeds from European winter oilseed rape production cannot be confirmed.
