Sweet Potato Gene Clusters Control Anthocyanin Biosynthesis and Leaf Morphology
ABSTRACT Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) exhibits diversity in pigmentation and leaf morphology, yet the genetic architecture and regulatory organisation underlying these traits remain poorly resolved, particularly with respect to organ‐specific control.

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

The ZmCOP1s–ZmCOL3 Module Enhances Late Flowering, Grain Yield and Grain Quality in Maize
ABSTRACT Flowering time is a key determinant of yield and regional adaptation in crops and is largely controlled by light signalling. In this study, we identified two maize orthologs of Arabidopsis CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC 1 (COP1), designated ZmCOP1a and ZmCOP1b, which activate light signalling and reduce plant height. Loss‐of‐function mutants of

ABSTRACT Genomic prediction (GP) can increase genetic gain by allowing for the selection of traits earlier in the breeding cycle. Spike morphology traits are of interest because of their relationship with grain yield. To better understand the prediction capabilities of agronomic traits and spike architecture traits, a population of 594 soft red winter ...

ABSTRACT In organic winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), common bunt (CB) caused by Tilletia caries and Tilletia laevis is one of the most serious diseases affecting grain yield and quality. Most cultivars are susceptible to CB, and even if a cultivar possesses resistance against a certain race, it may be susceptible to another one.
