Hybridity of mainly asexually propagating duckweeds in genus Lemna – dead end or breakthrough?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 629-647, April 2026.
Summary The cosmopolitan, mainly vegetatively propagating, organ‐reduced monocotyledonous aquatic duckweeds are the smallest and fastest growing angiosperms, distributed world‐wide and flower rarely in nature. Recently, we reported intra‐ and interspecific hybrids and ploidy variants in the genus Lemna.

Population genomic signatures of founding events in autonomously self‐fertilizing plants: a test with Impatiens capensis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 616-628, April 2026.
Summary Autonomously self‐fertilizing plants possess disproportionate abilities to found populations. Viewed from the metapopulation perspective, founding events should be frequent in such plants, but the intensity and timing of bottlenecks and recovery should vary among populations.

Genomic responses to increased temperature and pollinator selection in Brassica rapa L.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 1231-1247, April 2026.
Summary Rapid environmental change reshapes both abiotic stress and biotic interactions, yet it remains unclear how these combined forces structure plants' genomic adaptation. In particular, the joint influence of temperature and pollinator identity, two ecological axes undergoing simultaneous global shifts, has rarely been quantified at genomic ...

Naked cuticle is essential for Drosophila wing development beyond Wingless signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 3, Page 532-541, March 2026.
Naked cuticle (Nkd), a Wnt signaling inhibitor, assumes extensive roles in Drosophila wing development. Overexpressing Nkd causes smaller, crumpled wings, while also perturbing multiple signaling pathways and developmental genes. A specific region (R1S) is critical for Nkd's function as a signaling integrator, offering new insights for studying its ...

Genetic variability and associations among yield and yield‐related traits in Ethiopian linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) landraces

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) is a key oilseed crop in Ethiopia's central highlands. However, its productivity is constrained by the limited availability of high‐yielding varieties, highlighting the importance of investigating genetic variability and trait associations among local landraces.

Hemidesmosome Mutations Contribute to the Onset and Severity of Acquired Autoimmune Bullous Diseases

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study examined hemidesmosome assembly‐related genes in pemphigoid diseases, revealing variants linked to disease onset and severity. Functional analyses, including Caenorhabditis elegans models, Ker‐CT transcriptomics, human proteomics, etc., demonstrated that ITGA6 mutations destabilize hemidesmosomes, disrupt dermal–epidermal adhesion, and ...

Will Females Remain? Fuchsia Excorticata Gender Ratios and Pollen Deposition in Dunedin, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Fuchsia excorticata (J.R.Forst. et G.Forst.) L.f. (Kōtukutuku, Onagraceae) is a gynodioecious and bird pollinated tree, with females reliant on pollinators, while hermaphrodites can self‐pollinate. Females are important for population persistence as only they produce female offspring, and all their seed is the product of cross‐pollination so not ...

Intrapopulation fixation index dynamics in finite populations with variable outcrossing rates

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2003
The intrapopulation fixation index ( f ) is inversely related to the outcrossing rate (t). Results obtained from data on molecular markers of natural populations have shown that these values are highly variable, even when measured in the same group of ...

Skim‐sequencing for genomic selection in wheat: a comparison of marker platforms

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract The promise of genomics‐assisted breeding relies on efficient, affordable, and abundant molecular markers. Leveraging modern sequencing technology, commercial laboratory products, and open‐source software, we demonstrate how ultra‐low whole‐genome sequencing coverage (skim‐seq, 0.05–0.10x) can be a viable marker platform. The direct generation
