GWAS reveals novel QTLs associated with panicle architecture traits in US long‐grain rice

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Understanding the variability of panicle architecture‐related traits is important to enhance rice (Oryza sativa L.) improvement. The present study evaluated 208 diverse rice lines of southern rice breeding programs for panicle length (PL), panicle weight (PW), and thousand grain weight (GW).

Transposable elements: Functional aspects and applications as drivers of crop innovation

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Transposable elements (TEs), which were once relegated to the status of genomic parasites, are today accepted as important agents of plant genome evolution and adaptation. This review integrates evidence pointing to their dual function as drivers of genetic diversity and instability, with a focus on their contribution to phenotypic innovation,

Thermal Characterisation of Millet to Develop Sustainable Intumescent Passive Fire Protection Systems

open access: yesFire and Materials, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 204-215, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Intumescent paints, coatings, or sealants are a popular form of passive protection in the fire industry. However, the impact of their toxicity and constituent synthetic chemical ingredients is an important consideration for sustainability. This research experimentally studied an agricultural grain, known as millet, quantifying its unusual ...

Purification, Structural Characterization, and Anticancer Activity of the Polysaccharide From Sea Red Rice Bran

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Sea red rice bran polysaccharides were separated and purified by DEAE‐52 column chromatography, yielding three components: SRBP‐I, II, and III. Moreover, all three are pentosan‐type polysaccharides predominantly composed of mannose. Among them, SRBP‐I demonstrated the most potent inhibitory effect on HeLa cells. Further investigation indicated that the
