The lipoxygenase gene family: a genomic fossil of shared polyploidy between Glycine max and Medicago truncatula

BMC Plant Biology, 2008
Background Soybean lipoxygenases (Lxs) play important roles in plant resistance and in conferring the distinct bean flavor. Lxs comprise a multi-gene family that includes GmLx1, GmLx2 and GmLx3, and many of these genes have been characterized.

Medicago PHYA promotes flowering, primary stem elongation and expression of flowering time genes in long days

BMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background Flowering time is an important trait for productivity in legumes, which include many food and fodder plants. Medicago truncatula (Medicago) is a model temperate legume used to study flowering time pathways.

Comparison of Somatic Embryogenesis in Medicago sativa and Medicago truncatula

Pakistan Journal of Biological Sciences, 2007
In this study, the regeneration through embryogenesis of two species of Medicago were studied. Seeds of Medicago sativa cv. Rehnani and M. truncatula line A17 were grown on MS medium. After 4-6 weeks, segments of leaf and stem from two species were transferred to MS medium containing 2 mg L(-1) NAA, 2,4-D and Kinetin.

Transformative changes of pastoral livestock production and its consequences on the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Grassland functional zoning and spatial optimization scheme on the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau. Based on multifunctionality assessment, the scheme proposes allocating 32% of regional grassland as nature reserve grasslands (biodiversity focus), 63% as livestock grazing grasslands (smart ecological–production management), and 5% as cultivated grasslands (high‐

Do Short‐Term Legume–Maize Sequences Outperform Maize Monoculture Regarding Biomass Production and P Use Efficiency Under P‐Restricted Conditions?

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
In a short‐term pot experiment, three legume‐based crop rotations are being tested for their effects on the P cycle and P use efficiency compared to maize monoculture. Legume‐based crop rotations stimulate the P cycle by increasing acid phosphatase activity and carboxylate exudation.

Symbiosis-associated UMAMIT transporters required for establishing efficient nitrogen fixation in Medicago truncatula. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary To address a critical gap in understanding amino acid transport in legume–Rhizobium symbiosis, we investigated the role of symbiosis‐associated USUALLY MULTIPLE ACIDS MOVE IN AND OUT TRANSPORTERS (UMAMITs) in Medicago truncatula nodulation.

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

The regulatory frameworks surrounding CRISPR‐edited papaya and their impact on international commerce

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract The papaya tree (Carica papaya L.), native to the Americas, is cultivated in tropical regions and holds substantial economic importance, with an estimated export volume of 365 000 t in 2023. However, diseases caused by viruses, fungi, bacteria, and nematodes can lead to severe losses.
