Transgene‐Free, Gene‐Edited Cavendish Bananas (Musa acuminata, AAA)

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global consumer acceptance of gene‐edited food crops is increasing with new breeding technologies that can modify the genome without foreign DNA integration. Here, we report an Agrobacterium‐based system for transgene‐free, gene editing of the banana cultivar, Cavendish.

Globe fringerush (Fimbristylis miliacea) cross resistance to als-inhibitor herbicides under field conditions in irrigated rice in the south of Brazil [PDF]

Planta Daninha, 2013
ALS-inhibiting herbicides usually provide adequate weed control in irrigated rice fields. After consecutive years of use, the Cyperaceae species, globe fringerush (Fimbristylis miliacea) began to show resistance to ALS (acetolactate synthase) inhibitors.

Induction of Synthetic Apomixis in Two Sorghum Hybrids Enables Seed Yield and Genotype Preservation Over Multiple Generations

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Induction of apomixis, or clonal reproduction through seed, could economise commercial hybrid seed production and enable smallholder farmers to save and sow hybrid seed. Here, we demonstrate the synthetic induction of apomixis in two sorghum hybrids and show that the clonal hybrid seed can be maintained across multiple seed generations.

Acetolactate synthase activity in Euphorbia heterophylla resistant to ALS- and protox- inhibiting herbicides [PDF]

Planta Daninha, 2013
The objective of this study was to determine the activity of the enzyme acetolactate synthase in biotypes of wild poinsettia (Euphorbia heterophylla) with multiple resistance to ALS- and Protox- inhibitors in the presence and absence of imazapyr ...

Cas9‐Embedding Hyperactive TadA8e Confers Efficient and Highly Specific A‐To‐G Base Editing in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adenine base editors (ABEs) produce precise A‐to‐G conversion in the genomic target sites without causing double‐strand breaks. However, the hyperactive adenosine deaminase TadA8e raises safety concerns on genome‐wide off‐target edits. We engineered 11 chimeric proteins for ABEs (CP‐ABEs) by embedding hyperactive TadA8e within Cas9 nickase to ...

Molecular Targeted Suppression of Male Fertility in Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson: Function and Layered Double Hydroxide Nanosheets‐Based Delivery System of ApmiR319

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amaranthus palmeri is one of the most troublesome invasive agricultural weeds worldwide, exhibiting super invasiveness and high resistance to conventional management strategies. Artificial microRNA‐mediated silencing technology, coupled with a nanoparticle‐mediated delivery system, represents an attractive approach for fertility control in A ...

Integrative Expression of Glucoamylase Gene in a Brewer’s Yeast Saccharomyces pastorianus Strain

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2008
The recombinant brewer’s yeast Saccharomyces pastorianus strain was constructed byintroducing the ilv2:GLA fragment released from pMGI6, carrying glucoamylase gene (GLA) and using the yeast α-acetolactate synthase gene (ILV2) as the recombination ...

Advances in metabolic engineering in the microbial production of fuels and chemicals from C1 gas [PDF]

, 2018
The future sustainable production of chemicals and fuels from non-petrochemical sources, while at the same time reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, represent two of society's greatest challenges.

Chemical control strategies for Poa annua in managed turfgrass systems

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Poa annua L. is a widespread and persistent weed in managed turfgrass systems, exhibiting both annual and short‐lived perennial growth habits. Effective management requires an integrated approach, with chemical herbicides remaining a primary tool.

Evaluation of single versus multiple site of action preemergence herbicides for waterhemp and giant ragweed control in Wisconsin soybean

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract The use of preemergence (PRE) herbicides with soil residual activity is recognized as an effective strategy for early‐season weed management in Midwest US soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] production. The efficacy of soybean PRE herbicides with single and multiple sites of action (SOAs), including acetolactate synthase (ALS), photosystem II ...
