Physiological Influence of Stalk Rot on Maize Lodging after Physiological Maturity

, 2021
The stalk lodging caused by stalk rot after physiological maturity (PM) is a major factor restricting further development of mechanical grain harvesting in China. The physiological mechanism of stalk rot on maize stalk lodging after PM is not clear. This

Harnessing genomic resources for passion fruit improvement: Progress and prospects

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) is a highly nutritious horticultural crop cultivated widely across tropical and subtropical regions. Despite decades of breeding efforts that have led to the release of a few high‐yielding cultivars, on‐farm productivity remains suboptimal, and several existing cultivars are showing signs of declining vigor ...

Allelic Variation in Maize Malate Dehydrogenase 7 Shapes Promoter Methylation and Banded Leaf and Sheath Blight Resistance

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, 3 February 2026.
In this study maize chloroplastic malate dehydrogenase7 (ZmMDH7), is identified as a Rhizoctonia solani resistance gene in maize. ZmMDH7 is regulated by transcription factor ZmWRKY44 via pathogens challenge to elevate mitochondrial ROS and SA signaling pathway.

qPH1.01, a dominant QTL that contributes to plant height and ear height in maize

The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Plant height (PH) is an important agronomic trait closely related to yield and lodging resistance. In this study, bulked segregant analysis coupled with next‐generation sequencing (BSA‐seq) approach was employed to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for PH in a large F2 population generated from a cross between the tall maize (Zea mays L.)

FgNdk1 Promotes Effector Secretion to Scavenge ROS During Fusarium graminearum Infection

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2025.
The ER‐anchored nucleoside diphosphate kinase FgNdk1 promotes the secretion of effectors FgSp10, FgSp16 and FgSp24 to scavenge plant‐derived ROS during Fusarium graminearum infection. ABSTRACT Pathogens secrete numerous effectors to overcome plant‐derived reactive oxygen species (ROS), but how pathogens modulate effector secretion during infection ...

Synthetic Polyploidisation Enhances Fusarium graminearum Tolerance in Wheat by Reshaping the Transcriptome and Strengthening the Microbiome

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 11, Page 5252-5278, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Polyploidisation is a natural evolutionary mechanism that enhances plant stress tolerance and environmental adaptability; however, its impact on microbiome homeostasis remains poorly understood. In this study, we selected a nascent euploid synthetic hexaploid wheat line (HG116; 2n = 6x = 42, BBAADD) by selfing a triploid F1 hybrid of Triticum ...

Advanced backcross selection for resistance to Fusarium ear rot and fumonisin contamination in maize

Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Ear rots and mycotoxin contamination of grain in maize (Zea mays L.) pose a threat to food production and safety, best ameliorated by breeding for resistance. In this study, we introgressed alleles conferring resistance to Fusarium ear rot and fumonisin contamination from GE440, a highly resistant inbred with poor agronomic performance, into ...
