Construction and analysis of the Brassica oleracea pangenome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This thesis describes the construction and analysis of a first Brassica oleracea pangenome. It also presents a pipeline that was developed and implemented in order to build and analyse the pangenome. B. oleracea is a species of high economic importance encompassing crops like broccoli, Brussels sprout, cabbage, cauliflower, kale and kohlrabi ...

Agricultural nanotechnology for a safe and sustainable future: current status, challenges, and beyond

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 105, Issue 6, Page 3159-3169, April 2025.
Abstract Nanotechnology, which involves manipulating matter at the atomic and molecular scales to produce structures and devices ranging from 1 to 100 nm, is increasingly being applied in agriculture. Nanoscale materials possess distinct optical, electrochemical, and mechanical properties that enable the smart, targeted delivery of pesticides ...

The Shock of Shatter: Understanding Silique and Silicle Dehiscence for Improving Oilseed Crops in Brassicaceae

open access: yesPlant Direct, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Silique dehiscence, despite being an essential physiological process for seed dispersal for dehiscent fruits, is disadvantageous for the agricultural industry. While crops have been selected against the expression of natural, spontaneous shattering to protect the seeds for harvest, fruit dehiscence in the field can be promoted through abiotic ...

Soil Microbial Co‐Occurrence Networks Across Climate and Land Use Gradient in Southern Italy

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2025.
Microbial co‐occurrence networks differ across ecosystems, with natural environments exhibiting greater complexity and resilience than agroecosystems. Soil properties like pH, organic carbon and nitrogen strongly influence network structure, highlighting the importance of sustainable land management for preserving soil health and microbial diversity ...

Deciphering recent transposition patterns in plants through comparison of 811 genome assemblies

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 4, Page 1121-1132, April 2025.
Summary Transposable elements (TEs) are significant drivers of genome evolution, yet their recent dynamics and impacts within and among species, as well as the roles of host genes and non‐coding RNAs in the transposition process, remain elusive. With advancements in large‐scale pan‐genome sequencing and the development of open data sharing, large‐scale

A Systematic Review of Alternative Host Species of Phytophthora erythroseptica, the Major Causal Agent of Pink Rot of Potato

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 3, Page 605-640, April 2025.
The literature cites many alternative hosts of Phytophthora erythroseptica. However, evidence of host status is often insufficient, thus a polyphasic approach (morphological, molecular, histological and pathogenicity) is required. ABSTRACT Most published studies of Phytophthora erythroseptica, the major causal agent of pink rot of potato, have focused ...
