Understanding environmental adaptation in intermediate wheatgrass

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Intermediate wheatgrass (IWG; Thinopyrum intermedium) is a perennial grain crop that offers many environmental benefits through extensive root systems in addition to food production. IWG's distribution across broad environmental gradients in Eurasia provides a model system for studying climate adaptation genetics essential for developing ...

Genomic characterization of pre‐Green Revolution wheat landraces from the Nepalese and Bhutanese Himalayas reveals geographically structured diversity

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) landraces collected before the widespread regional adoption of Green Revolution cultivars provide a historical record of locally maintained germplasm. We characterized a panel of 202 accessions collected from Nepal and Bhutan between 1952 and 1958. Genotyping by Random Amplicon Sequencing‐Direct yielded 30,228 high‐

Genome evolution of Mediterranean olives following DNA repeats diversification

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract The olive tree (Olea europaea L. subsp. europaea) is one of the most representative perennial crops of the Mediterranean Basin, yet the genomic processes underlying its domestication and diversification remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated repeatome variation across 20 accessions, including 11 wild oleasters and nine cultivated ...

Enhanced disease resistance in chickpea and canola via MAGPIE: Major‐Effect Allele and Genomic Polygenic Integration for Enhancement

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract The global agricultural industry suffers major economic losses due to fungal diseases. Though selective breeding and introgression of resistance genes with major effects have helped to reduce the impact of these diseases, resistance breakdown occurs within a few generations.

Comparative genome assemblies reveal distinct allelic and structural variation at blast resistance loci in rice CT21375‐F4‐4 and Moroberekan

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae, remains a major constraint to rice (Oryza sativa L.) production, and durable resistance will require broader use of genetic diversity beyond commonly studied elite cultivars. We present chromosome‐scale genome assemblies of two agronomically significant but genetically divergent rice cultivars: CT21375‐

Insights into the Huanglongbing defense responses in the Australasian citrus species

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Citrus production has declined substantially due to Huanglongbing (HLB), a bacterial disease that has caused severe economic losses worldwide. Long‐term field studies indicate that citrus species differ in their tolerance to HLB, underscoring the importance of incorporating disease‐tolerant traits to sustain the citrus industry.

Genome‐wide association study reveals the genetic architecture of five grain minerals in North American spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Abstract Biofortification aims to reduce the prevalence of micronutrient malnutrition in vulnerable populations by breeding staple crops with an increase in nutrient density. Assessing the phenotypic variation of grain minerals and their genetic control under common management practices can provide a strong foundation for nutrition‐related trait ...

The Role of Chromosomal Fusions in Genetic Divergence of a Keystone Arctic Species (Boreogadus saida)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
Although much focus has been given to the importance of chromosome inversions in harboring adaptive alleles in non‐model species, there are other mechanisms that can facilitate divergence. Here we utilize whole genome sequence data from Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) to investigate patterns of adaptive divergence in a system with high gene flow. We find
