SBP‐Box Transcription Factor JcSPL9 Regulates Both Seed Yield and Oil Content in the Biofuel Plant Jatropha curcas

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3125-3140, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Jatropha curcas is a promising feedstock for biodiesel and bio‐jet fuels production; however, its seed yield is constrained by limited inflorescences. SPL9 is a member of the SBP‐box gene family that promotes the juvenile‐to‐adult phase transition.

Genome‐wide association studies and genomics‐informed breeding for tuber dormancy in tetraploid potatoes

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Upon harvest, potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers enter a dormant state and do not sprout even under favorable conditions. Early dormancy break causes tuber spoilage and reduces postharvest quality. Common sprout control methods may compromise tuber quality, raise health and environmental concerns, and increase costs.

Integrated analysis of transcriptomic and proteomic data from tree peony (P. ostii) seeds reveals key developmental stages and candidate genes related to oil biosynthesis and fatty acid metabolism [PDF]

Horticulture Research, 2019
Abstract Tree peony (Paeonia section Moutan DC.) seeds are an excellent source of beneficial natural compounds that promote health, and they contain high levels of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). In recent years, tree peony has been emerging as an oil crop. Therefore, combined analysis of the transcriptome and proteome of tree peony (P. ostii)

Unlocking landscape transient dynamics: Integrating traditional ecological knowledge for enhanced analysis of land‐use changes and forest expansion in a Mediterranean ecosystem

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 283-300, February 2026.
Abstract The Industrial Revolution triggered rural abandonment in Europe and had a profound impact on land configuration and ecosystem dynamics, mainly the growth of forests at the expense of open agricultural habitats. However, rural abandonment has been asynchronous in space and time, depending on regional socio‐economic dynamics.
