Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

Post‐Translational Control of TaFT1 by WAPO1 Ubiquitination Shapes Spike Architecture and Yield in Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The florigen protein TaFT1 coordinately regulates heading time and spikelet number per spike (SNS), serving as a key yield determinant in wheat. However, how its stability is post‐translationally controlled in the shoot apical meristem remains unclear.

KASP genotyping v2

KASP is a genotyping assay which you can use to differentiate wild types vs heterozygous vs homozygous larvae/finclips. It is well suited to genotype a SNP or a small CRISPR-generated indel. Once you confirmed it is working well, the assay is pretty fast to run so you may want to use KASP if you will routinely genotype tens of samples.

The Mottling Phenotype in Chickens Shows Genetic Heterogeneity and Is Caused by Mutations at the EDNRB2 Locus

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Mottling is a widespread intra‐feather pattern present in many breeds of domestic chickens worldwide and inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. An amino acid substitution Arg332His in the EDNRB2 gene was previously reported as responsible for the mottling phenotype in several Japanese breeds of chickens.

Development of KASP assays for identification of Meloidogyne chitwoodi

Journal of Plant Diseases and Protection
Abstract Meloidogyne chitwoodi is a serious pest of potatoes, causing galling of the tuber and necrosis of the tissue, leading to reduced yields and market value. Due to M. chitwoodi’s high tolerance to low temperatures and its ability to reproduce rapidly within one growing season, this species is on the quarantine lists in the ...

Reconfiguring biofortification strategies to transform food systems and address micronutrient deficiency of the 21st century

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 2511-2547, August 2026.
This review explores how to make staple foods and horticultural crops more nutritious, including how artificial intelligence‐based screening of gene banks helps deploy nutritionally rich germplasm into breeding. Genome editing can help develop crops richer in minerals, vitamins, and health‐promoting compounds, supporting healthier diets and more ...

Development of Novel KASP Markers for Improved Germination in Deep-Sown Direct Seeded Rice

Rice
Background The lack of stable-high yielding and direct-seeded adapted varieties with better germination ability from deeper soil depth and availability of molecular markers are major limitation in achieving the maximum yield potential of rice under water

Barley HvBODYGUARD1 controls cuticular specialisations regulated by SHINE transcription factors

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 1188-1208, August 2026.
Cuticle defects result from defective HvBDG1 alleles. Summary Land plants secrete a protective outer cuticular layer with diverse functions. Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) develops two cuticular specialisations: the β‐diketone rich wax bloom on vegetative tissues and an adherent grain surface which sticks to the hulls, leading to barley's distinctive ...

Spatial Regulation of Silicon Accumulation in Peduncle Confers Sheathed Spike in Barley

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 4766-4779, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Peduncle, the uppermost internode in cereals, connects the stem to the inflorescence and is critical for the transport of water, nutrients and photosynthetic assimilates. While peduncle length associates with plant height and its elongation is primarily regulated by phytohormones, we report a previously unrecognized mechanism involving the ...

KASP: A Cognitive-Affective Methodology for Designing Serious Learning Games [PDF]

International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications, 2018
Many research studies agree on the existence of a close link between emotion and cognition. Actually, much research has demonstrated that students with learning disabilities (LD) experience emotional distress related to their difficulties. In this regard, this article proposes a new methodology of designing intelligent games called KASP Methodology, it’
