ABSTRACT Rising global temperatures increasingly threaten bean production and the food security of millions of people who depend on these protein‐rich legumes. Heat stress during the reproductive stages induces pollen sterility, flower abscission, and disruptions in source–sink relationships, resulting in yield losses of 30%–40% or more when critical ...

Isolation and characterisation of mutants of cowpea mosaic virus [PDF]
A nitrous acid-induced, temperature sensitive mutant of cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) known as 8-14, (Evans 1985, Virology 1985, 141, 275-282), was characterised.

Building capacity in vector‐borne plant virus research: The CONNECTED Network
Plant viruses spread by insects decimate crop yields globally, causing food security challenges in vulnerable areas, including regions of Africa. Interdisciplinary research is needed to protect future crop supplies. CONNECTED, the Community Network for African Vector‐Borne Plant Viruses, increased research capacity in Central, East, West and Southern ...

High‐density mutation tracks are associated with proton‐beam irradiation patterns in Sorghum bicolor
Abstract Induced mutagenesis is a cornerstone of crop functional genomics, yet the extent to which distinct radiation sources reshape the spatial distribution of mutations remains difficult to evaluate in reduced‐representation datasets. Here, we analyze a published genotyping‐by‐sequencing (GBS) panel (192,040 loci) to compare proton‐beam and gamma ...

Abstract Improving seed size and weight is a major breeding goal in mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek). Improved genomic resources and precision phenotyping may enable more efficient selection for seed trait improvement. In this study, we integrated a deep learning–based segment anything model phenotyping pipeline with genome‐wide association ...
