The Spatiotemporal Genetic Architecture of Seed Vigor in Upland Cotton

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Leveraging the semi‐automated SeedRanger platform, we profiled the germination kinetics of 356 cotton accessions at a 30‐min interval. This high‐throughput phenomic approach delineated a temporal genetic network comprising 541 stage‐specific loci. Crucially, functional validation identified FLA2 as a pivotal, auxin‐modulated regulator that orchestrates

The Grape VlWRKY3 Gene Promotes Abiotic and Biotic Stress Tolerance in Transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
WRKY transcription factors are known to play important roles in plant responses to various abiotic and biotic stresses. The grape WRKY gene, WRKY3 was previously reported to respond to salt and drought stress, as well as methyl jasmonate and ethylene ...

Marker Assisted Forward Breeding to Combine Multiple Biotic-Abiotic Stress Resistance/Tolerance in Rice

Rice, 2020
Background Unfavorable climatic changes have led to an increased threat of several biotic and abiotic stresses over the past few years. Looking at the massive damage caused by these stresses, we undertook a study to develop high yielding climate ...

Natural Variation of COLD and CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 Coordinately Fine‐Tunes Cold Tolerance and Tea Quality in Tea Plants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multi‐trait genome‐wide association mapping identifies a central hub regulator, COLD AND CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 (CCR1), and its excellent natural allele variation, coordinately enhancing cold tolerance and promoting catechins biosyntheis. CsCCR1 interacts with CsCBF1/3 and is transcriptionally activated by CsLUX and CsKUA1 to promote catechins ...

Synergism or Antagonism: Do Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria Work Together to Benefit Plants?

International Journal of Plant Biology
In agriculture, abiotic and biotic stress reduce yield by 51–82% and 10–16%, respectively. Applications of biological agents such as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can improve plant growth. Applications

Biotic and Abiotic Stress Responses in Crop Plants

Agronomy, 2018
Agricultural productivity depends on increasingly extreme weather phenomena, and the use of germplasm that has to be continuously improved by plant breeders to become tolerant to various biotic and abiotic stresses.

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

FIRST REPORT ON INDUCTION OF RESISTANCE TO ROOT KNOT NEMATODE (MELOIDOGYNE INCOGNITA) BY DL-BETA AMINO BUTYRIC ACID UNDER ABIOTIC STRESS (FLY ASH)

Agricultura, 2019
The reduction in the growth of pathogen under abiotic stress is being intensified by DL-β-amino butyric acid (BABA). The combination of abiotic and biotic stress can have a positive effect on the yield of plants by reducing the sensitivity to biotic ...

Additives Enhancing Biodegradability in Plastics and Potential Implications for Textiles: A Mechanistic Review

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Mechanistic insights from additive‐assisted plastic degradation guide the design of environmentally adaptive textile fibers. Functional additives enhance oxidative, hydrolytic, enzymatic, and microbial degradation pathways. Translating these strategies requires control of fiber architecture, additive distribution, and environmental interactions ...
