Natural Variation in GmSL20 Improves Seed Size and Quality in Soybean

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed size plays an important role in determining crop yield, yet the genetic mechanisms underlying the regulation of this agronomic trait remain incompletely understood in soybean. Here, we perform a genome‐wide association study mapping with seed length variations and identify a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 20, named ...

Características del fruto de la palma yagua (Attalea burtyracea) y su potencial para producción de aceites Characteristics of yagua palm (Attalea butyracea) fruits and their potential for oil production

open access: yesBioagro, 2009
Con el objeto de conocer el potencial de los frutos de la palma yagua para producción de aceites se analizaron distintas partes de frutos colectados de plantas silvestres. El potencial máximo de producción de aceite se estimó en más de 2000 kg·ha-1.

A TAF10‐ERF109 Transcriptional Module Directs Flavonoid‐Based Stress Resilience and Yield Enhancement in Foxtail Millet and Wheat

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To ensure sustainable agricultural production under escalating environmental constraints such as drought and salinity, innovative strategies are urgently needed. Here, we reveal in foxtail millet (Setaria italica) that transcription factors TAF10 and ERF109 form a functional complex which co‐activates the expression of key flavonoid ...

A Robust Framework for Maize Elite Line Genome Editing Through Enhanced HI‐Edit via LbCas12a Activity Optimization

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Haploid induction coupled with genome editing (HI‐Edit) enables direct modification of commercial crop varieties, bypassing the need for trait introgression or direct transformation of elite lines with CRISPR machinery. However, its widespread application has been constrained by low haploid editing rates (HER), the proportion of haploids ...

A Fusion Between Common Bean Phaseolin and the N‐Terminal Domain of Maize 16 kDa Gamma Zein: Clues for Designing Nutritionally Improved Seed Storage Proteins

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increasing the nutritional value of seed storage proteins (SSPs) has been largely hindered by limited knowledge of how the features of the various SSP domains determine high accumulation in protein storage vacuoles (PSV) or as endoplasmic reticulum (ER)‐located insoluble protein bodies (PB).

Tracking the genome-wide occupancy of Arabidopsis LEAFY COTYLEDON1 in endosperm development

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Endosperm development is crucial for embryo growth and seed maturation. LEAFY COTYLEDON1 (LEC1), expressed in both endosperm and embryo, serves as a key regulator of seed development, orchestrating processes such as embryogenesis and seed maturation ...

Targeted Modulation of Eukaryotic Release Factor 1 (OseRF1) by an RNA Aptamer Enhances Drought Adaptation in Rice

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought stress severely restricts rice productivity, necessitating strategies to enhance stress resilience. Here, we identify translation termination as a tunable regulatory node for stress adaptation. Using 25 rounds of SELEX, we isolated RTAR, an RNA aptamer that binds the rice eukaryotic release factor 1 (OseRF1) with nanomolar affinity ...

The 5-methylcytosine DNA glycosylase ROS1 prevents paternal genome hypermethylation in Arabidopsis endosperm

open access: yesGenome Biology
Background DNA methylation patterning is a consequence of opposing activities of DNA methyltransferases and DNA demethylases. In many plant and animal species, reproduction is a period of significant epigenome lability.

Single‐Nucleus Transcriptome Analysis Provides New Insights Into B Chromosome Elimination in Sorghum

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT B chromosomes are supernumerary entities found in many plant species, with some exhibiting tissue‐specific elimination. In Sorghum purpureosericeum, extensive B chromosome elimination occurs during embryogenesis affecting most of the embryonic organs, leaving the B chromosome maintained mainly in limited regions of meristems.
