Gene Deletion in Barley Mediated by LTR-retrotransposon BARE

Scientific Reports, 2017
AbstractA poly-row branched spike (prbs) barley mutant was obtained from soaking a two-rowed barley inflorescence in a solution of maize genomic DNA. Positional cloning and sequencing demonstrated that the prbs mutant resulted from a 28 kb deletion including the inflorescence architecture gene HvRA2.

Chromosome‐Level Genome Assembly of the Allotetraploid Gynostemma pentaphyllum Provides Novel Insights Into the Biosynthesis of Ginsenoside and Gypenoside LVI

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4204-4220, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Gynostemma pentaphyllum, a herb used in tea and traditional Chinese medicine, shows geographic variation in its production of valuable dammarane‐type ginsenosides and gypenoside LVI between populations from Suining (SN) and Nanning (NN). To elucidate the mechanisms underlying this differential metabolite accumulation, a chromosome‐level genome

Multi‐Omics Insights Into Anthraquinone Biosynthesis in Rheum tanguticum

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3953-3968, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Rheum tanguticum is renowned for its medicinal properties, including purgative, anti‐inflammatory and hepatoprotective effects, primarily attributed to anthraquinones (AQs). However, the molecular mechanisms of AQs biosynthesis have largely been hindered by insufficient genomic resources and functional genomics investigations.

A Near Telomere‐to‐Telomere Genome of Belamcanda chinensis Provides Insights Into Genome Evolution and the Biosynthesis of Characteristic Isoflavones

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4285-4301, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Belamcanda chinensis is a non‐leguminous medicinal plant rich in bioactive isoflavones; however, the lack of a high‐quality reference genome has limited elucidation of its isoflavone biosynthetic and modification network. Here, we present the first near telomere‐to‐telomere genome assembly of B.

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

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4240-4262, June 2026.
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 ...

Genome assembly and genome‐wide association studies decipher the genetic basis of isovitexin synthesis and yield traits in mungbean

The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 5, June 2026.
Significance Statement A high‐quality mungbean genome was assembled and connected with domestication and GWAS analysis. EVM0030058 improved isovitexin in hairy roots. VrLFRH1 was found associated with yield‐related traits. This study presents a high‐quality chromosome‐level genome assembly of the southern Chinese mungbean cultivar Sulv1, with superior ...

Biological and genomic resources for the cosmopolitan phytoplankton Bathycoccus: insights into genetic diversity and function of outlier chromosomes

The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 5, June 2026.
SUMMARY Population‐scale genome sequencing has become essential for exploring genetic diversity and adaptation, particularly in land plants. In contrast, eukaryotic phytoplankton resources remain limited to model reference genomes or community‐level metagenomics, leaving a gap in understanding intraspecific variation and evolutionary processes.

Horizontal Transfer of Non-LTR Retrotransposons

, 2012
Horizontal transfer is a complex phenomenon usually used as explanation of phylogenetic inconsistence which can not be interpreted in terms of vertical evolution. Most examples of horizontal transfer of eukaryotic genes involve transposable elements. An intriguing feature of horizontal transfer is that its frequency differs among transposable elements ...
