Overexpression of IbMIPS1 gene enhances salt tolerance in transgenic sweetpotato
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2016 : Myo-inositol-1-phosphate synthase (MIPS) is a key rate limiting enzyme in the de novo biosynthesis of myo-inositol in plants. In the present study, the IbMIPS1 gene was introduced into sweetpotato cultivar Xushu 18 and the transgenic plants exhibited ...

Drone‐based phenotyping of maize for multiple disease resistance and yield in breeding field trials
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Improving selection for multiple disease resistance (MDR) and yield in maize (Zea mays L.) requires high‐throughput, objective phenotyping tools, particularly under field conditions where several foliar diseases co‐occur. We evaluated drone‐based multispectral vegetation indices (VIs) for predicting resistance to northern leaf blight (NLB ...

Genetic Evaluation of Beef Sires Using a Beef‐on‐Dairy Crossbred Reference Population
Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 3, Page 390-402, May 2026.ABSTRACT In recent years, Beef‐on‐Dairy (BoD) crossbreeding programs have gained momentum to enhance dairy cattle's economic and genetic merits while meeting the demand for high‐quality beef. However, bulls with superior growth potential can lead to calving problems; thus, Holstein dairy farmers must decide which semen to use to avoid calving problems ...

A method for genotyping elite breeding stocks of leaf chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) by assaying mapped microsatellite marker loci [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: Leaf chicory (Cichorium intybus subsp. intybus var. foliosum L.) is a diploid plant species (2n = 18) of the Asteraceae family. The term "chicory" specifies at least two types of cultivated plants: a leafy vegetable, which is highly ...

Map-based cloning and characterization reveal that an R2R3 MYB gene confers red glume in wheat
Crop JournalPigment accumulation is an important trait related to wheat domestication, but there remains a limited understanding of its molecular mechanism. The genetic control of the red glume trait by a dominant allele, Rg-B1, on 1BS was reported in the last ...
