eQTL Meta‐Analysis Reveals Conserved and Population‐Specific Regulatory Variation Underlying Nutritional Trait Evolution and Domestication in Tomato

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A comprehensive meta‐analysis of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) across five diverse tomato populations reveals a high‐resolution atlas of transcriptional regulation and uncovers conserved and population‐specific regulatory architectures underlying fruit nutritional quality traits, including flavonoids, sugars, organic acids, carotenoids ...

Identification and genetic analysis of EMS-mutagenized wheat mutants conferring lesion-mimic premature aging

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2020
Background Lesion-mimic and premature aging (lmpa) mutant lmpa1 was identified from the ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) mutant library in the bread wheat variety Keda 527 (KD527) background.

Development of a Model for Genomic Prediction of Multiple Traits in Common Bean Germplasm, Based on Population Structure

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Due to insufficient identification and in-depth investigation of existing common bean germplasm resources, it is difficult for breeders to utilize these valuable genetic resources.

Ecological Adaptation Mechanisms Underlying Successful Plant Reproduction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
During floral induction, various environmental and endogenous signals converge to regulate the florigen protein, which is transported from leaves to the SAM to initiate flowering. Within the SAM, a complex network of receptor kinases and small peptides orchestrates floral development with high spatiotemporal precision.

Natural Variation of NAR5 Determines Nitrogenase Activity and the Yield in Soybean

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identified NAR5, a gene encoding a subtilisin‐like protease, that regulates nitrogenase activity in soybean nodules. Overexpressing NAR5 delayed nodule senescence, enhancing nitrogenase activity, yield, and low‐nitrogen tolerance. The elite haplotype NAR5HapI‐1 linked to superior nitrogenase activity and greater seed weight has been ...

Nitrogen Source and Rate Management Improve Maize Productivity of Smallholders under Semiarid Climates

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Nitrogen is one of the most important factor affecting maize (Zea mays L.) yield and income of smallholders under semiarid climates. Field experiments were conducted to investigate the impact of different N-fertilizer sources [urea, calcium ammonium ...

Identification of Allele-Specific Expression Genes Associated with Maize Heterosis

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
Deciphering the molecular basis of heterosis would yield genes and markers for designing improved maize-hybrid varieties. In this study, 481 BC1F3 lines derived from Zheng58 and PH4CV were genotyped with 15,386 polymorphic SNPs markers and testcrossed ...

Modelling predicts that heat stress and not drought will limit wheat yield in Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Global warming is characterised by shifts in weather patterns and increases in extreme weather events. New crop cultivars with specific physiological traits will therefore be required if climate change is not to result in losses of yield and food ...

Comparative Oligo‐FISH Mapping Illuminates Chromosomal Evolution Among Rutaceae Species Diverged Over 50 Million Years

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Oligonucleotide‐based fluorescence in situ hybridization probes were developed in the model citrus species Citrus maxima. These probes were applied to comparative karyotyping across 14 species in the Rutaceae family. This analysis revealed chromosomal evolution in lineages that diverged from Citrus nearly 52 million years ago.

N2-fixation and residual N effect of four legume species and four companion grass species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Inclusion of forage legumes in low-input forage mixtures improves herbage production and soil fertility through addition of nitrogen (N) from N2-fixation.
