Chickpea seed endophyte Enterobacter sp. mediated yield and nutritional enrichment of chickpea for improving human and livestock health

Frontiers in Nutrition
Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) are used as a good source of proteins and energy in the diets of various organisms including humans and animals. Chickpea straws can serve as an alternative option for forage for different ruminants.

Three Decades of China's Bt Cotton: Achievements and Insights

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cotton is a vital natural fibre crop with significant economic value worldwide. In response to the threat of cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera), the China government initiated a research project in 1992 to develop transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton.

Characterization of Seed Quality Traits Within 61 Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) Genotypes: Ionomes and Daily Values

Seeds
Mineral malnutrition negatively impacts almost 30% of the world population and could result in anemia, blindness, and stunted growth. Seed traits involve nutritional, physical, and physiological characteristics that play a key role in achieving seed ...

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

QTL Mapping of Several Seed Quality Traits in the DH Population NPZ06 × NPZ09 (Brassica napus L.) for Marker‐Assisted Selection

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.

Using Stochastic Simulations to Shed Light on How to Deploy Speed Breeding and Genomic Selection in Self‐Pollinated Recurrent Breeding Programs

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Speed breeding can shorten breeding cycles and, when combined with genomic selection, can accelerate genetic gain. Yet it remains unclear how different integration strategies affect long‐term response, genetic variance and cost‐efficiency in small public programs.

A Vertical Stacking Approach to Rapid Generation Cycling for Indoor Growth of Tall Annual Crops—The Case of Vicia faba L.

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accelerating breeding cycles through rapid generation turnover is a demonstrated strategy to improve the rate of genetic gain in a range of staple crops. This study presents a vertically stacked accelerated single‐seed descent (aSSD) protocol for faba bean (Vicia faba L.), aimed at rapid generation cycling while ensuring robust plant ...
