Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

Insights Into the Origin and Local Adaptation Evolution of the Cultivated Sesame With Telomere‐to‐Telomere High‐Quality Genome

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sesame (Sesamum indicum L., 2n = 26) is one of the oldest oilseed crops and is often called the ‘queen of oilseeds’ due to its high content of unsaturated fatty acids and natural antioxidants. Despite its long history, the origin and global spread of cultivated sesame remain unresolved.

A Wild Emmer Wheat B3 Transcription Factor Regulates Seed Growth and Nutrient Allocation

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed weight (SW) and nutrient allocation are key determinants of yield and grain quality in wheat, yet the regulatory basis of naturally occurring variation in these traits remains poorly resolved. Wild emmer wheat (Triticum dicoccoides), the progenitor of modern wheat, retains extensive eco‐geographically structured genetic diversity that was

Gene Discovery and Advances in Finger millet [Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn.] Genomics - An Important Nutri-cereal of Future

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
The rapid strides in molecular marker technologies followed by genomics, and next generation sequencing advancements in three major crops (rice, maize and wheat) of the world have given opportunities for their use in the orphan, but highly valuable ...

Insider/Outsider/Transsiders of Transnational Migration

Studies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Migration is individually and collectively a challenging but also a transformative praxis and process. In my proposal, I present these in the context of transnational migration of two multigenerational families whose pioneers originally migrated from Turkey to Germany.

Adaptability and Forage Characterization of Finger Millet Accessions in U.S. Southern Great Plains

Agronomy, 2018
Low forage quality of available perennial warm-season grasses during mid-summer through late summer affects the production of stocker cattle in the U.S. Southern Great Plains (SGP). Finger millet (Eleusine coracana Gaertn L.), which is a drought tolerant

A comparison of normobaric and hypobaric hypoxia effects on cerebrovascular response pre and post maximal exercise

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A lack of consensus remains on whether normobaric hypoxia (NH) and hypobaric hypoxia (HH) may differentially impact physiological factors affecting cerebrovascular regulation, particularly with an additional strenuous exercise component. We sought to compare the acute effects of NH and HH on global cerebral blood flow (gCBF) at an altitude ...

Non‐invasive assessment of integrated cardiorespiratory network dynamics after physiological stress in humans

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study aimed to develop a non‐invasive method for visualizing the cardiorespiratory network under baseline conditions and following isolated or combined exposure to hypoxia, exercise, and sleep deprivation. Twenty‐two healthy participants underwent assessments at rest and after normobaric hypoxia (FIO2${{F}_{{\mathrm{I ...

Endocrine and androgenic response to altitude training in professional cyclists

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Steroidal and endocrine variables are altered during altitude training. Abstract This study investigated endocrine and steroidal blood markers in 31 male elite cyclists monitored over 7 weeks, including a 3 week altitude training camp either at 2050 m (n = 19) or 3000 m (n = 12).
