ABSTRACT In organic winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), common bunt (CB) caused by Tilletia caries and Tilletia laevis is one of the most serious diseases affecting grain yield and quality. Most cultivars are susceptible to CB, and even if a cultivar possesses resistance against a certain race, it may be susceptible to another one.

Assessment of Apple Blotch (Diplocarpon coronariae) Symptom Progression on Malus × domestica Leaves
ABSTRACT Apple blotch is a fungal disease of increasing importance in European apple cultivation. Infection by Diplocarpon coronariae leads to premature leaf abscission in summer, weakening tree vigour and exacerbating harvest losses. Developing resistant cultivars represents a promising preventive strategy.

Abstract BACKGROUND Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major global food crop, and understanding its maternal lineage and genetic diversity is essential for breeding, authentication, and evolutionary studies. Chloroplast genomes provide valuable markers for phylogenetic inference and cultivar discrimination; however, conventional plant DNA ...

Abstract Solanum malmeanum, a wild relative of the potato (S. tuberosum), is native to Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. This wild potato species belongs to the tertiary gene pool (2x = 2n = 24, 1EBN – Endosperm Balance Number) and possesses valuable traits for potato breeding. Understanding its reproductive mechanisms is crucial for effectively

This article elucidates the regulatory molecular mechanisms of Fibulin‐1 (Fbln1) in vascular stiffness and explores potential therapeutic interventions. Zinc Finger Protein 384 (ZNF384) binds to the Fbln1 promoter, driving its expression. Fbln1 activates the TGF‐β/Smad3 axis, promoting vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) senescence and collagen ...
