Parthenocarpy-related genes induced by naphthalene acetic acid in oil palm interspecific O × G [Elaeis oleifera (Kunth) Cortés × Elaeis guineensis Jacq.] hybrids

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
Parthenocarpy is the development without fertilization of seedless fruits. In the oil palm industry, the development of parthenocarpic fruits is considered an attractive option to increase palm oil production.

Field resistance of orange fruit to citrus black spot and citrus canker in D‐limonene synthase downregulated trees

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 2949-2959, April 2026.
Genetically modified (GM) sweet‐oranges with downregulated CitMTSE1 gene showed reduced citrus black spot severity and citrus canker incidence, confirming terpene modulation as a promising strategy for sustainable field citrus disease resistance. Abstract BACKGROUND Citrus black spot (CBS), caused by Phyllosticta citricarpa, and citrus canker (CC ...

Loss-of-Function of a Tomato Receptor-Like Kinase Impairs Male Fertility and Induces Parthenocarpic Fruit Set

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Parthenocarpy arises when an ovary develops into fruit without pollination/fertilization. The mechanisms involved in genetic parthenocarpy have attracted attention because of their potential application in plant breeding and also for their elucidation of

Self‐compatibility in Solanum malmeanum (Solanaceae): Evolutionary and breeding impacts for a novel source of genetic variation in diploid potatoes

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Solanum malmeanum, a wild relative of the potato (S. tuberosum), is native to Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. This wild potato species belongs to the tertiary gene pool (2x = 2n = 24, 1EBN – Endosperm Balance Number) and possesses valuable traits for potato breeding. Understanding its reproductive mechanisms is crucial for effectively

The Ethylene Biosynthesis Gene CpACO1A: A New Player in the Regulation of Sex Determination and Female Flower Development in Cucurbita pepo

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
A methanesulfonate-generated mutant has been identified in Cucurbita pepo that alters sex determination. The mutation converts female into hermaphrodite flowers and disrupts the growth rate and maturation of petals and carpels, delaying female flower ...

VvmiR160s/VvARFs interaction and their spatio-temporal expression/cleavage products during GA-induced grape parthenocarpy

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Grape (Vitis vinifera) is highly sensitive to gibberellin (GA), which effectively induce grape parthenocarpy. Studies showed that miR160s and their target AUXIN RESPONSIVE FACTOR (ARF) responding hormones are indispensable for various aspects ...

Comparative Studies on Fertility Traits of CMS Eggplants (Solanum melongena L.) Using Cytoplasms from Five Wild Solanum Species

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Five cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) lines of eggplant “Uttara” (Solanum melongena L.) with the cytoplasms of S. kurzii (KUR), S. violaceum (VIO), S. aethiopicum (AET), S. anguivi (ANG), and S. grandifolium (GRA) and three restorers of fertility (RF) lines of CMS from AET, ANG, and GRA were compared for the fertility traits to determine which CMS are ...
