Geographic Divergence and the Genomic Basis of Reproductive Diapause in Drosophila triauraria

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 3, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Adjusting reproduction timing to environmental cues is essential for lifetime fitness. In many insects, reproductive diapause shows clinal variation along environmental gradients such as photoperiod and temperature. How such continuous trait variation may be encoded at the molecular level and maintained in the presence of gene flow remains ...

Patterns of Interploidy Admixture in Polyploid Complexes: Insights From Thymus Sect. Mastichina (Lamiaceae)

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 3, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding gene flow between ploidy levels in polyploid complexes is essential for species delimitation and conservation. This study explores evolutionary dynamics in the polyploid complex Thymus sect. Mastichina (Lamiaceae), comprising three taxa: T. mastichina subsp. mastichina, T. mastichina subsp.

Genome‐Edited Maize Expressing Two Native Genes Confers Broad‐Spectrum Resistance to Northern Corn Leaf Blight

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
We identified a novel resistance allele, NLB18‐R, at the Htn1 locus. Using CRISPR‐Cas9, we replaced the susceptible allele (NLB18‐S) with NLB18‐R in an elite inbred. We stacked NLB18‐R and the resistance gene Ht1‐R. The resulting genome‐edited plants exhibited resistance to Setosphaeria turcica races 0, 1 and 23N.

Loss of E3 ligase HvST1 function substantially increases distal crossover frequency

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1325-1341, February 2026.
Summary This study characterizes the function of a grass‐specific E3 ubiquitin ligase, HvST1, in regulating synapsis and crossover (CO) formation during meiosis in barley (Hordeum vulgare). In large‐genome cereals, COs are predominantly restricted to distal chromosomal regions, limiting genetic recombination and breeding flexibility.
