A Natural LTR Retrotransposon Insertion in the Promoter of GhNAC140‐Dt Boosts Cotton Lint Yield

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transposable elements (TEs) are fundamental drivers of crop evolution and domestication. Whereas the underlying mechanisms of TE‐mediated gene activation remain poorly understood. Lint percentage is an important yield component in cotton. Here, we report a retrotransposon insertion in the promoter of GhNAC140‐Dt, a secondary wall NAC encoding ...

Identification of a Susceptibility Gene for Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae in Vietnamese Elite Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Cultivar Bacthom 7

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is the causal agent of bacterial leaf blight (BLB) disease in rice, exerting a detrimental impact on the yield of various rice cultivars in Vietnam, notably the Bacthom 7 (BT7) variety. Xoo possesses transcription activator‐like effectors (TALEs) which modulate the expression of host genes by specifically ...

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Molecular basis of differential sensitivity to MeJA in floret opening between indica and japonica rice

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding
Methyl jasmonate (MeJA) accelerated floret opening in rice, crucial for addressing inconsistent floret opening in hybrid seed production of indica × japonica hybrids. However, indica and japonica rice exhibited notable differences in their sensitivity to

Drought and Herbivory Drive Physiological and Phytohormonal Changes in Soybean (Glycine max Merril): Insights From a Meta‐Analysis

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With climate change, abiotic and biotic stresses such as drought and herbivory are predicted to further diminish agricultural productivity. Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merrill), a crop of global economic importance, is vulnerable to both. However, the interactive effects of drought and herbivory on soybeans haven't been explored, especially ...

Elimination of FRDL1, a xylem‐located citrate transporter, confers tolerance to excess unchelated ferrous iron through an exclusion mechanism in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Knock‐down of a xylem‐localized citrate transporter, FRDL1, reduces foliar iron concentrations and leaf symptoms under excess ferrous iron stress in rice. Abstract Iron (Fe) toxicity is a common agricultural problem that limits rice yield in various regions of Southeast Asia and Africa.

Estimation of the Number of Nuisance Bears in the Oshima Peninsula, Hokkaido

Population Ecology, Volume 68, Issue 2, April 2026.
In this study, we aimed to estimate the number of nuisance bears based on damage and occurrence reports collected from 2009 to 2023 in the Oshima Peninsula, Hokkaido. For the estimation, we assessed the harmfulness level (from Condition 0 to 3) of the bears based on the details of the reports and developed a method to remove double or more overcounts ...
