A telomere‐to‐telomere gap‐free assembly integrating multi‐omics uncovers the genetic mechanism of fruit quality and important agronomic trait associations in pomegranate

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, Page 2852-2870, July 2025.
Summary Pomegranate is an important perennial fruit tree distributed worldwide. Reference genomes with gaps and limit gene identification controlling important agronomic traits hinder its functional genomics and genetic improvements. Here, we reported a telomere‐to‐telomere (T2T) gap‐free genome assembly of the distinctive cultivar ‘Moshiliu’.

Empowering plant epigenetics to breed resilience of crops: From nucleolar dominance to transgenerational epigenetic inheritance

The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract Advancements in genomic and epigenetic research in both plants and animals have transformed breeding methods and biotechnological strategies for crop improvement, particularly in the face of extreme weather challenges. These breakthroughs in plant biology and agriculture have laid a strong foundation for ensuring food security, promoting ...

Defective Processing of Cytoplasmic and Chloroplast Ribosomal RNA in the Absence of Arabidopsis DXO1

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 4227-4244, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Decapping 5′‐3′ exoribonucleases from the DXO/Rai1 family are highly conserved among eukaryotes and exhibit diverse enzymatic activities depending on the organism. The biochemical and structural properties of the plant DXO1 differ from the yeast and animal counterparts, which is reflected in the in vivo functions of this enzyme.

The use of PCR-RFLP to genetically distinguish the morphologically close species: Ceriodaphnia dubia Richard, 1894 and Ceriodaphnia silvestrii Daday, 1902 (Crustacea Cladocera)

Brazilian Journal of Biology
The cladocerans are important components of planktonic and benthic freshwater and good indicators of the trophic state of water bodies. The morphological taxonomy of many species of Cladocera is considered complex with minor differences separating some ...

Mitofusin 1 Drives Preimplantation Development by Enhancing Chromatin Incorporation of Histone H3.3

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 18, May 15, 2025.
MFN1 exerts its function partially through histone H3.3 in early embryos. MFN1 colocalizes with PADI6, and its deficiency results in compromised cytoplasmic lattices and ribosomal subunits, leading to declined H3.3 protein level. This, in turn, hinders the incorporation of H3.3 into the embryonic genome, thereby causing failure of male pronucleus ...

rDNA Copy Number Variation and Methylation During Normal and Premature Aging

Aging Cell, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2025.
In > 160 healthy individuals the absolute rDNA copy number (CN) in blood ranged from approximately 240 to 900. The number of active copies with a completely unmethylated promoter varied from 40 to 120, independent of absolute CN. Promoter methylation is a compensation mechanism for absolute CN variation. Aging was associated with a loss of unmethylated

Assessing Human Ribosomal DNA Variation and Its Association With Phenotypic Outcomes

BioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 4, April 2025.
Genetic variation within the multi‐copy, multi‐locus ribosomal DNA (rDNA) can contribute to human complex trait variability. This variation takes the form of copy number, structural arrangement, and sequence differences. This review summarizes what is currently known about human rDNA variation, its causes, and its association with phenotypic outcomes ...
