ZmSSRP1, transactivated by OPAQUE11, positively regulates starch biosynthesis in maize endosperm
Summary Starch synthesis is crucial for crop yield and quality. This study reveals an O11‐ZmSSRP1 module of kernel starch biosynthesis in maize (Zea mays). We identify STARCH SYNTHESIS REGULATING PROTEIN 1 (ZmSSRP1) positively regulates amylose and amylopectin‐dependent starch synthesis in maize endosperm.

Effects of Spacing on Cassava (Manihot Esculenta)
SUMMARYThree varieties in one cassava trial and five in another were planted in a systematic density experiment which showed that optimum plant density for root yield changes with plant age. Some varieties showed a pronounced optimum plant population, whilst others showed a flattopped response curve.

Micropropagation of Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz): Review
Cassava is a vital crop to the food security of millions of people worldwide, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa. Because the crop produced a reasonable yield on marginal soils, it could help relieve global hunger. As a result, increasing cassava output and its quality attributes are significant.

Summary Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are critical regulators of numerous biological processes in plants. Nevertheless, their identification is challenging due to the low sequence conservation across various species. Existing computational methods for lncRNA identification often face difficulties in generalizing across diverse plant species ...
