Genetic analysis and molecular mapping of the purple leaf sheath in barley (Hordeum vulgare). [PDF]
Abstract Although anthocyanin is frequently found in various barley organs, the genetic basis of the pigmentation is still poorly understood. In this study, we examined the development of anthocyanin in GemCraft, a malting barley cultivar showing purple leaf sheath (PLS), and found that the pigmentation became visible on the leaf sheath at the early ...

The current state of peas in the United Kingdom; diversity, heritage and food systems
Landraces and traditional pea varieties hold great potential for enhancing agrobiodiversity and promoting pulse consumption, offering a rich historical and cultural resource for the UK food system. Unfortunately, many traditional pea varieties are lost, and those saved are often kept in seed banks or used only by small‐scale growers.

CHLOROPLAST AND MITOCHONDRIAL DNA VARIATION IN HORDEUM VULGARE AND HORDEUM SPONTANEUM
ABSTRACT A survey of restriction fragment polymorphism in Hordeum vulgare and Hordeum spontaneum was made using 17 and 16 hexanucleotide restriction endonucleases on chloroplast (cp) and mitochondrial (mt) DNA, respectively. The plant accessions originated from various places throughout the Fertile Cresent and Mediterranean. The types of

RNAi technology development for weed control: all smoke and no fire?
Despite the potential of Spray‐Induced Gene Silencing in weed management several critical points such as molecular target, weed species of interest as well as delivery techniques need to be addressed. Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) technology, specifically Spray‐Induced Gene Silencing (SIGS), holds potential as an innovative approach for selective ...

Aminoisothiazolamides, a new class of potent inhibitors of lysyl‐tRNA synthetase
The present work covers a series of novel herbicidal lead structures that possess an aminoisothiazolamide scaffold as a structural key feature. Lysyl‐tRNA synthetase 1 (KRS1) was identified as the biochemical mode‐of‐action. Based on optimized and tailored synthetic approaches, a broader SAR study was carried out delivering some lead structures that ...

Sitobion avenae and Rhopalosiphum padi are major pests on wheat. Natural product‐based aphid resistance holds promise for the sustainable control of these pests. The current literature is discussed, highlighting knowledge gaps and challenges that need addressing. Abstract Cereal aphids, Sitobion avenae and Rhopalosiphum padi, cause severe yield loss in

Click beetle (Elateridae) olfactory preferences for plant volatiles, including those released by damaged plants, remain poorly understood. Olfactometer and electroantennography experiments revealed sex‐ and plant species‐specific olfactory preferences of Agriotes sputator beetles, with maturity influencing female responses.
