Disentangling atmospheric and soil drought: a new stand‐level manipulation approach for mature forests

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Design of the VPDrought experiment in a Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) forest at the Pfynwald research platform. Summary Atmospheric and soil drought are major, yet typically confounded, drivers of tree stress. Rising vapor pressure deficit (VPD) may impair forest function independently of soil moisture decline, yet stand‐scale experimental separation ...

Elevated CO2 drives nonlinear trait responses and reshapes growth‐virulence trade‐offs in a plant pathogen

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Temporal variation in carbon dioxide concentration within the crop canopy and in the atmosphere. Summary Atmospheric CO2 is rising at unprecedented rates. While its physiological effects on plants are well‐documented, the direct evolutionary impact on plant pathogens remains unknown. We investigated how CO2 interacts with other abiotic factors to shape

Leaf nutrient resorption across contrasting soil parent materials: it is not just about efficiency

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Box plots showing nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) concentrations in senesced leaves across contrasting parent materials for four site groups. Summary In theory, nutrient resorption from leaves should be higher in sites with lower soil nutrients, increasing the retention and reuse of nutrients that are limited in supply.

Comparative Genome‐Wide Association Studies of Metabolites and Grain‐Related Traits in Common Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The metabolome is highly diverse and the closest layer to phenotype; therefore, it is commonly regarded as a bridge between the genome and phenome in plants. Here, we performed large‐scale metabolome analysis using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) and 33 grain‐related traits in a diverse panel of natural accessions and

Screening for Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) Resistance in Early‐Maturing Tropical Maize Adapted to Sub‐Saharan Africa

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fall armyworm (FAW) (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) has emerged as a serious pest since 2016 in Africa, affecting the food security and livelihoods of millions of smallholder farmers, especially those growing maize. Native genetic resistance to FAW is essential for reducing yield loss.

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.
