VERNALIZATION2 alters early tiller development in a facultative spring hexaploid bread wheat

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary An extended period of cold exposure enables the process of vernalization in winter cereals and is important for the synchronised timing of the floral transition. The cereal‐specific floral repressor VERNALIZATION2 (VRN2) has an integral role in vernalization, yet this locus remains poorly characterised in facultative spring hexaploid wheat ...

An α/β‐Hydrolase GmABHD6 Controls Seed Oil Content and Yield in Soybean

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed oil content is a key trait in soybean, yet its genetic basis remains largely unresolved. Here, we identify GmABHD6, an α/β‐hydrolase domain‐containing gene, as the causal gene underlying a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) for seed oil content on chromosome 16.

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 ...

Prevalence of nine genetic defects in Chinese Holstein cattle

Veterinary Medicine and Science, 2021
Worldwide use of elite sires has caused inbreeding accumulation and high frequencies of genetic defects in dairy cattle populations. In recent years, several genetic defect genes or haplotypes have been identified in Holstein cattle. A rapid and reliable

A High Soluble‐Fibre Allele in Wheat Encodes a Defective Cell Wall Peroxidase Responsible for Dimerization of Ferulate Moieties on Arabinoxylan

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increasing dietary fibre (DF) intake is an important target to improve health. An attractive strategy for this is to increase DF in wheat which is derived principally from the endosperm cell wall polysaccharide arabinoxylan (AX). The water‐extractable form of this (WE‐AX) accounts for most soluble dietary fibre (SDF), which is believed to ...

Challenges in Bringing Pangenome Research Into Breeding: A Case Study in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crop breeding has entered the pangenomics era, unlocking a far more comprehensive view of genetic diversity than a single reference genome can capture. In rice (Oryza sativa), a staple crop critical to global food security, the construction of pangenome resources has uncovered extensive structural variations (SVs), presence/absence variations (

Genetic analysis and mapping of dwarf gene without yield penalty in a γ-ray-induced wheat mutant

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Plant height is one of the most important agronomic traits that affects yield in wheat, owing to that the utilization of dwarf or semi-dwarf genes is closely associated with lodging resistance.

AhBWR15, A Novel RLK Gene, Confers Resistance to Ralstonia solanacearum in Peanut

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bacterial wilt (BW), a severe soil‐borne disease caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, significantly impedes global peanut production. Despite its impact, the mechanisms underlying BW resistance in peanut remain unclear. Herein, we selected the highly resistant variety Nongdahua108 (H108) and the susceptible variety Nongdahua107 (H107) to develop ...
