Journal of Phytopathology, Volume 174, Issue 2, March/April 2026.ABSTRACT Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is an ancient oilseed crop of family Pedaliaceae, known for its quality oil, supplemented with dietary advantages due to the presence of bioactive compounds like sesamin and sesamolin. Phyllody and dry root rot (DRR) are the two major biotic stress factors that cause significant yield reduction and economic loss in ...

A novel single‐cell NAD‐ME C4 subtype integrated with CAM and bicarbonate use in an aquatic plant
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 2386-2401, March 2026.Summary Many plants maximize photosynthesis by using a CO2‐concentrating mechanism (CCM). Based on physiology, the freshwater plant Ottelia alismoides has three CCMs: C4 metabolism (NAD‐malic enzyme (NAD‐ME) subtype) and bicarbonate‐use during the day plus crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) at night and lacks Kranz anatomy. Here, we combined a range of

Improved Longan Genome Assembly Reveals Insights Into Flowering Mechanisms
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1678-1696, March 2026.ABSTRACT Longan is an exotic tropical fruit crop and exhibits off‐season flowering induced by potassium chlorate (KClO3), though the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. We assembled a high‐quality, 441.5 Mb genome of variety ‘Shixia’, with a contig N50 at 28.1 Mb, 29, 325 protein‐coding genes, 26 telomeres and 15 centromeres.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1866-1884, March 2026.ABSTRACT Aegilops geniculata Roth is a tetraploid (MgMgUgUg; 2n = 4x = 28) wild relative of wheat and a valuable source of genetic diversity for improving agronomic traits. We present a high‐quality homoeolog‐resolved assembly and annotation of the Ae.

Exploring the genetic diversity of the IPK Medicago germplasm collection using GBS
Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 345-358, March 2026.Genotyping‐by‐sequencing of 1234 accessions from the Medicago collection of the Leibniz Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research (IPK) revealed broad genetic diversity across 40 species, providing one of the first genus‐wide insights into relationships between both cultivated and wild species of Medicago.

The Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 5, March 2026.SUMMARY Glycosyltransferases (GTs) are the primary enzymes responsible for the biosynthesis of the complex polysaccharides in plant cell walls. Given the important role of GTs in plants, it is necessary to undertake their functional characterization to better understand plant cell wall synthesis pathways to develop improved feedstocks for efficient ...

Molecular markers: tools to improve genebank efficiency.
Cellular & molecular biology letters, 2002 Possibilities for using molecular markers to improve genebank efficiency are increasingly present thanks to developments in genebanks and developments in molecular genetics. These possibilities relate to all aspects of genebank management: acquisition, maintenance, characterisation and utilisation. However, two pitfalls should be avoided.
