Molecular cloning and functional analysis of the pepper resistance gene Me3 to root-knot nematode

Horticultural Plant Journal, 2023
Root-knot nematodes (RKNs) cause severe diseases in peppers annually around the world. In pepper, the Me3 gene provides a heat-stable and broad-spectrum resistance to RKNs.

Genome-wide identification of the MYB gene family and identification of candidate genes that involved in anthocyanin synthesis in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp)

BMC Plant Biology
MYB transcription factors are important for plant growth development and abiotic stress response, especially in anthocyanin synthesis. However, the comprehensive genome-wide analysis of the MYB gene family in cowpea is unclear.

Flowers respond to pollinator sound within minutes by increasing nectar sugar concentration

bioRxiv, 2018
Can plants hear? That is, can they sense airborne sounds and respond to them? Here we show that Oenothera drummondii flowers, exposed to the playback sound of a flying bee or to synthetic sound-signals at similar frequencies, produced sweeter nectar ...
