Reactive oxygen species act as signaling molecules to control root hair initiation and tip growth

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 5, Page 2042-2048, September 2025.
Summary Root hairs (RHs) increase the surface area of roots, facilitating nutrient and water uptake and plant anchorage. RHs form from root epidermal cells and elongate by polar tip growth. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have recently been implicated as important signals that drive RH formation and elongation using both genetic and imaging approaches ...

A comprehensive review of the genetic control of cooking time in dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 934-953, July 2025.
Reducing cooking time could increase dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) consumption. Cooking is an essential processing step needed to unlock the nutrients in dry beans and to make them palatable and safe for consumption. Long cooking times have consequences for dry bean use, especially where cooking fuel cost is high and when people prefer foods that are ...

Strategies for Selecting Crosses Using Genomic Prediction in Two Wheat Breeding Programs

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 10, Issue 2, July 2017., 2017
The single most important decision in plant breeding programs is the selection of appropriate crosses. The ideal cross would provide superior predicted progeny performance and enough diversity to maintain genetic gain. The aim of this study was to compare the best crosses predicted using combinations of mid‐parent value and variance prediction ...

Characterization of virus species associated with sweet potato virus disease in Costa Rica and riboprobe development for its rapid detection

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 2, Page 413-421, February 2025.
Sweet potato feathery mottle virus and sweet potato chlorotic stunt virus have high prevalence in Costa Rica. Riboprobes are a cost‐effective alternative to RT‐PCR for virus detection in large‐scale screenings. Abstract Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) is a crucial crop for food security and economic stability in many regions, including Costa Rica.

The Use of Crop Wild Relatives in Maize and Sunflower Breeding

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 57, Issue 3, Page 1227-1240, May–June 2017., 2017
Conservation of crop wild relatives (CWR) has always been predicated on the promise of new and useful traits, and thus modern genetics and genomics tools must help fulfill the promise and continue to secure the conservation of these resources. However, the vast genetic potential present in CWR is often difficult to tap, as identification of superior ...
