A genome-wide association study in Hispanics/Latinos identifies novel signals for lung function: the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos [PDF]
, 2018 Rationale:: Lung function and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are heritable traits. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous pulmonary function and COPD loci, primarily in cohorts of European ancestry.

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Enhancing nutritional quality of oilseed rape requires deeper insight into the genetic control of seed quality traits. This study analysed the effect of varying soil phosphorus (P) levels on seed quality traits in the hybrid cultivar Architect. NIRS and laboratory methods were used to quantify total seed P and phytic acid (IP6) content.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Isoflavones, secondary metabolites with numerous health benefits, are predominantly found in legume seeds, especially soybean; however, their contents in domesticated soybean seeds are highly variable. Wild soybeans are known for higher seed isoflavone contents than cultivars. Here we used experimental and modelling approaches on wild soybean (

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Transient expression of exogenous protein in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves via agroinfiltration offers a rapid and efficient platform for functional gene discovery and heterologous production of valuable eukaryotic proteins and metabolites. Though light quality is an important factor for plant photomorphogenesis, its impact on the efficiency of

The Mechanism of Enzyme-catalyzed Ergothioneine Degradation [PDF]
, 2020 The sulfur containing histidine derivative ergothioneine is a ubiquitous natural product. Research on its biosynthesis and degradation can elucidate the complex biological and molecular function of this small molecular weight compound.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Seed defence priming is emerging as a novel, cost‐efficient and environmentally safe tool for pest management. It has been proposed as a means to uncouple the defence‐growth trade‐off in plants by enhancing defence responses with minimal fitness costs, but the mechanisms underlying this role remain elusive.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant viruses cause significant crop losses, a situation that could worsen due to anthropogenic activities driving global climate change, one factor of which is the increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration. This study assessed the impact of elevated CO2 concentration (eCO2, 1000 vs. 400 ppm) on two genotypes of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris
