Efficient CRISPR/Cas9 mediated Pooled-sgRNAs assembly accelerates targeting multiple genes related to male sterility in cotton

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2021
Background Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), harboring a complex allotetraploid genome, consists of A and D sub-genomes. Every gene has multiple copies with high sequence similarity that makes genetic, genomic and functional analyses extremely ...

Development of Whole-Genome Agarose-Resolvable LInDel Markers in Rice

open access: yesRice, 2020
The level of difficulty involved in separating marker genotypes greatly determines the utilization of such marker-aided selection (MAS) by breeders.

Three types of genes underlying the Gametophyte factor1 locus cause unilateral cross incompatibility in maize

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Unilateral cross incompatibility (UCI) is a type of prezygotic reproductive isolation, which is associated with multiple loci in maize. Here, the authors use genetic analysis to separate the Ga1 locus into two functional components and identify seven ...

Cotton pan-genome retrieves the lost sequences and genes during domestication and selection

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2021
Background Millennia of directional human selection has reshaped the genomic architecture of cultivated cotton relative to wild counterparts, but we have limited understanding of the selective retention and fractionation of genomic components. Results We

Contributions of Zea mays subspecies mexicana haplotypes to modern maize

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Maize was domesticated from wild lowland progenitors that co-existed with upland subspecies in Southwestern Mexico. Here Yang et al. use a meta-assembly approach to assemble an upland mexicana genome and find evidence of introgression suggesting it ...

Physiological changes and transcriptome profiling in Saccharum spontaneum L. leaf under water stress and re-watering conditions

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
As the polyploidy progenitor of modern sugarcane, Saccharum spontaneum is considered to be a valuable resistance source to various biotic and abiotic stresses. However, little has been reported on the mechanism of drought tolerance in S.

Integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic study unveils the gene regulatory mechanisms of sugarcane growth promotion during interaction with an endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacteria

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background Sugarcane growth and yield are complex biological processes influenced by endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacteria, for which the molecular mechanisms involved are largely unknown. In this study, integrated metabolomic and RNA-seq were conducted to

Unravelling the genetics of non-random fertilization associated with gametic incompatibility

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
In the dairy industry, mate allocation is dependent on the producer’s breeding goals and the parents’ breeding values. The probability of pregnancy differs among sire-dam combinations, and the compatibility of a pair may vary due to the combination of ...

Helitron distribution in Brassicaceae and whole Genome Helitron density as a character for distinguishing plant species

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2019
Background Helitron is a rolling-circle DNA transposon; it plays an important role in plant evolution. However, Helitron distribution and contribution to evolution at the family level have not been previously investigated.

Intraspecific variation of residual heterozygosity and its utility for quantitative genetic studies in maize

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background Residual heterozygosity (RH) in advanced inbred lines of plants benefits quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping studies. However, knowledge of factors affecting the genome-wide distribution of RH remains limited.
