Recent advances in improving yield and immunity through transcription factor engineering
Recent advances have demonstrated that modulating transcription factors can help balance growth and immunity, which is critical to achieving high yield and disease resistance in crops. This review provides a perspective on how specific transcription factors can be engineered to enhance growth and immunity simultaneously. ABSTRACT Transcription factors (

The use of the ph1b mutant to induce recombination between the chromosomes of wheat and barley
Intensive breeding has led to a narrowing in the genetic base of our major crops. In wheat, access to the extensive gene pool residing in its many and varied relatives (some cultivated, others wild) is hampered by the block on recombination imposed by ...

Exploitation of nuclear and cytoplasm variability in Hordeum chilense for wheat breeding [PDF]
Hordeum chilense Roem. et Schultz. is a diploid wild barley native to Chile and Argentina. The high crossability of this species with other members of the Triticeae tribe promoted the development of the new species × Tritordeum Ascherson et Graebner ...

Abstract Meteorites are easily contaminated at the Earth's surface by microbial activity. Here, DNA extracts from two meteorite specimens and samples from curation laboratory surfaces are analyzed with amplicon sequencing, to understand microbial communities that contaminate meteorites and that may be resident in curation facilities.

Microspore embryogenesis in barley: anther pre-treatment stimulates plant defence gene expression [PDF]
Microspore embryogenesis (ME) is a process in which the gametophytic pollen programme of the microspore is reorientated towards a new embryo sporophytic programme.

Summary Interactions between plants and soil microbes are widespread and are documented to modulate plant–insect herbivore interactions. Still, it remains unclear how these shape the overall plant defense responses and the mechanisms in suppressing insect populations.

Genetics of CM-proteins (A-hordeins) in barley [PDF]
The CM-proteins, which are the main components of the A-hordeins, include four previously described proteins (CMa-1, CMb-1, CMc-1, CMd-1), plus a new one, CMe-1, which has been tentatively included in this group on the basis of its solubility properties ...

Evolutionary conservation of ABA signaling for stomatal closure in ferns [PDF]
ABA-driven stomatal regulation reportedly evolved after the divergence of ferns, during the early evolution of seed plants approximately 360 Mya. This hypothesis is based on the observation that the stomata of certain fern species are unresponsive to ABA,
