Genotype-environment associations support a mosaic hybrid zone between two tidal marsh birds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Local environmental features can shape hybrid zone dynamics when hybrids are bounded by ecotones or when patchily distributed habitat types lead to a corresponding mosaic of genotypes.

First direct evidence of spawning by Japanese sardine Sardinops melanosticta (Temminck and Schlegel) in the eastern Pacific Ocean

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In 2022 the presence of the Japanese sardine, Sardinops melanosticta (Temminck and Schlegel), was detected in the eastern Pacific Ocean, far outside its known western North Pacific range. The species was collected along with the Pacific sardine, Sardinops sagax (Jenyns), which is native to the eastern Pacific Ocean.

A wheat chromosome segment substitution line series supports characterization and use of progenitor genetic variation

open access: yesThe Plant Genome
Genome‐wide introgression and substitution lines have been developed in many plant species, enhancing mapping precision, gene discovery, and the identification and exploitation of variation from wild relatives.

Marker-assisted pseudo-backcrossing for developing climate-resilient rice

open access: yesScientific Reports
The increased prevalence of abiotic stresses, such as salt, submergence, and drought, severely affects rice productivity. Developing a rice variety, with inbuilt resistance to these main abiotic stresses, will contribute to a long-term rise in rice yield in adverse environments.

The transcription factors TaABI4 and TaNAC‐A1 fine‐tune TaCYP94‐A1 transcription to modulate seed dormancy in wheat

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
A module involving the transcription factors TaABI4 and TaNAC‐A1, and the cytochrome P450 TaCYP94‐A1 precisely regulates seed dormancy levels through plant hormone crosstalk, providing targets for improving resistance to pre‐harvest sprouting in wheat.

Cyclin‐dependent kinase 13 is indispensable for normal mouse heart development

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 616-630, April 2025.
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common defect in live births. The role of cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK13) in cardiogenesis and CHD was studied using a transgenic mouse model (Cdk13tm1b) carrying deletion of exons 3 and 4, causing loss of function.

Improved oat variety: Resistant to drought, shattering and stem rust, the new Indio shows promise

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1957
Indio—the first oat variety developed for California by using the backcrossing techniques of plant breeding—has definite advantages over other varieties, and further improvements are under way.
