Evolution and diversification of the momilactone biosynthetic gene cluster in the genus Oryza. [PDF]
Summary Plants are master chemists and collectively are able to produce hundreds of thousands of different organic compounds. The genes underlying the biosynthesis of many specialized metabolites are organized in biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs), which is hypothesized to ensure their faithful coinheritance and to facilitate their coordinated ...

Grass functional traits reflect the long history of fire and grazers in the savannas of Texas. [PDF]
Abstract Premise Understanding relationships among grass traits, fire, and herbivores may help improve conservation strategies for savannas that are threatened by novel disturbance regimes. Emerging theory, developed in Africa, emphasizes that functional traits of savanna grasses reflect the distinct ways that fire and grazers consume biomass ...

Characterization of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) PvKSL1 as a levopimaradiene/abietadiene-type diterpene synthase. [PDF]
This study reports the discovery and functional characterization of PvKSL1, a previously unrecognized class I diterpene synthase from switchgrass. Abstract The diverse class of plant diterpenoid metabolites serves important functions in mediating growth, chemical defence, and ecological adaptation. In major monocot crops, such as maize (Zea mays), rice

Evaluation of Yield Stability in Finger Millet (<i>Eleusine coracana</i> L.) Genotypes Using Multivariate Approaches. [PDF]
Finger millet is commonly cultivated in the semiarid tropics, where it is primarily grown by subsistence farmers. However, grain yield remains low due to the complex quantitative nature of the trait and its low heritability. Therefore, genotype × environment interaction (GEI) significantly influences yield production. This study investigates the impact

Chromosome-level genome of Zoysia sinica in the intertidal zone reveals genomic insights into waterlogging stress adaptation. [PDF]
Abstract Zoysia sinica is a perennial grass that thrives in intertidal zones, even under extreme waterlogging stress. In this study, we present a high‐quality chromosome‐level genome assembly of Z. sinica, with a total size of 312.67 Mb. Through genome annotation, we identified 29,551 protein‐coding genes in the Z. sinica genome and re‐annotated 32,925,

A biogeographical analysis of Muhlenbergia (Poaceae: Chloridoideae: Cynodonteae: Muhlenbergiinae) [PDF]
AbstractA phylogeny based on the analysis of six DNA sequence markers (ITS, ndhA intron, rpl32‐trnL, rps3, rps16 intron, and rps16‐trnK) is used to infer ancestral areas and divergence times, and reconstruct the biogeographical history and evolution of 150 of the 183 (82%) species of Muhlenbergia.
