Compatibility and Stability Analysis of Haploid Inducers under Different Source Germplasm and Seasons in Maize Using GGE Biplot

open access: yesAgronomy
Multiple factors can affect the R1-nj purple kernel expression and seed set, reducing its efficiency in identifying haploids in maize. The complex interaction among the haploid inducer (HI), source germplasm (SG), and season (S) is inevitable in in vivo ...

Reductive Methylation: An Alternative to Lysine → Arginine Mutagenesis

open access: yesJournal of Peptide Science, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.
Replacing lysine with arginine, the standard genetic approach to eliminate amine reactivity, alters physicochemical properties and leaves the N terminus unprotected. Here, reductive methylation is characterized as a conservative chemical alternative. Complete dimethylation of human ribonucleases preserves thermostability, protein–protein interaction ...

De Novo Genome Assemblies of Four Rainbow Trout Genetic Lines Reveal Structural Variants in Pursuit of a Pangenome Reference

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) exhibit extensive genomic diversity shaped by domestication, life history and geographic origin. To advance the development of a comprehensive pangenome reference, we present new de novo genome assemblies of two genetically and ecologically distinct lines: Whale Rock (WR; wild, landlocked, Central California)

Haploids can be induced in knockout mutants of OsPLA1, but not OsDMP3 or OsDMP6, in rice

open access: yesCrop Journal
Doubled haploid (DH) technology is an important tool in crop breeding because it can significantly accelerate the breeding process. ZmPLA1/MATL/NLD and ZmDMP are two key genes controlling haploid induction (HI) in maize, exhibiting a synergistic effect ...

Interaction Between Rec8 and Mis4 Is Required for Axis‐Loop Chromatin Formation and Homologous Chromosome Recombination During Meiosis

open access: yesGenes to Cells, Volume 31, Issue 4, July 2026.
We identified a Mis4 cohesin loader mutant that is specifically defective in chromatin axis formation and homologous recombination while retaining normal sister chromatid cohesion. The mis4‐LR mutant, carrying the L1150S and R1159G amino acid substitutions, exhibited reduced interaction between Mis4 and Rec8, suggesting a meiosis‐specific role for the ...

Advances in doubled haploid technology for rice breeding: mechanisms, applications, and future perspectives

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Production of homozygous inbred lines is crucial in rice breeding programs. Doubled haploid (DH) technology enables the efficient development of pure lines and significantly shortens the breeding cycle compared to conventional methods.

Progress and Challenges in Phylogenomics and Genomics of Lophotrochozoa/Spiralia

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 521-544, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Lophotrochozoa is one of the three major bilaterian groups comprising more than half of the bilaterian phyla. Lophotrochozoa includes among others Mollusca, Annelida, Platyhelminthes and Rotifera. Despite representing such a large proportion of animal diversity, they are historically understudied and genomic resources have been scarce. However,

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 12, Page 1782-1800, June 2026.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Unifying Retaria Research: A Common Framework for Studying Foraminifera and Radiolaria

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 6, June 2026.
Research on Foraminifera and Radiolaria has predominantly focused on their fossil remains. This synthesis identifies the “Big Five” disciplines of a unified Retaria research: diversity and evolution, ecology, life cycles, and ecosystem roles, highlighting this lineage as a model system for understanding life's resilience in a rapidly changing planet ...
