Deep purple – an open-pollinated variety to induce haploids in tropical maize

Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2023
Deep purple is an open-pollinated variety, well adapted to tropical conditions, developed to induce maternal haploids in maize. The founders were W23, Stock6, and an experimental tropical maize population. The inducer population inherits the dominant the

Advances in large DNA fragment assembly for microbial cell factory engineering

Quantitative Biology, Volume 14, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract The efficient, rapid, and reliable assembly of DNA fragments is essential for advancing metabolic engineering and synthetic biology. With the rapid advancement of DNA synthesis and assembly technologies, the scale of DNA assembly has expanded from single genes to metabolic pathways and even genomes.

Retaining Models of Human Evolution After Repeated Falsifications—Why?

Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.
Two 19th century paradigms of human evolution emerged: Humans are subdivided into isolated populations in an evolutionary tree, versus human populations interbreed (gene flow) with no isolates. The tree model has been rejected whenever tested since the 1970's, whereas gene flow consistently fits.

Wheat fertilization affects oviposition preference of wheat midge, Sitodiplosis mosellana (Géhin) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae)

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6740-6748, July 2026.
Wheat fertilization increased plant growth, nitrogen and protein levels, influencing the wheat volatile profile and affecting female wheat midge choice to lay eggs. This could partly result from the observed changes in the VOC profile. Abstract BACKGROUND In Canada, the orange wheat blossom midge (hereafter called wheat midge), Sitodiplosis mosellana ...

Reductive Methylation: An Alternative to Lysine → Arginine Mutagenesis

Journal 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 ...

Development of maize (Zea mays L.) genotypes with in vivo doubled haploid technique

, 2023
Doubled haploid technology has become an increasingly popular and important tool for developing new maize (Zea mays L.) lines breeding. Although conventional plant breeding contributes significantly to maize development, it is time-consuming and has ...

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

Molecular 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

Crop 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 ...

Progress and Challenges in Phylogenomics and Genomics of Lophotrochozoa/Spiralia

Zoologica 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,
