Integration of Spatiotemporal Multi‐Omics in Peach Fruit Unravels a Metabolic Niche and the Genetic Basis of Trichome‐Mediated Stress Adaptation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study constructed the first spatiotemporal multi‐omics map of peach fruit and discovered a key candidate gene that synergistically regulates trichome development and drought tolerance through the jasmonic acid signaling pathway, providing insights into the coupling mechanism between development and stress resistance.

Cacao pod transcriptome profiling of seven genotypes identifies features associated with post-penetration resistance to Phytophthora palmivora

Scientific Reports
The oomycete Phytophthora palmivora infects the fruit of cacao trees (Theobroma cacao) causing black pod rot and reducing yields. Cacao genotypes vary in their resistance levels to P.

Soil Nitrogen Dynamics and Transformation Under No-Tillage Perennial Rice Farming Systems

Agriculture
Annual rice growing lands are mainly threatened by soil loss. High-yielding perennial rice cultivars with great socioeconomic values are developed to stabilize fragile rice farms.

A Dual Role for Abscisic Acid Integrating the Cold Stress Response at the Whole-Plant Level in Iris pseudacorus L. Growing in a Natural Wetland

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Leaf senescence, the last stage of the developmental program of leaves, can be induced by both internal and external signals. Cold stress-induced leaf senescence is an efficient strategy to overcome winter temperatures.

Comparative Oligo‐FISH Mapping Illuminates Chromosomal Evolution Among Rutaceae Species Diverged Over 50 Million Years

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Oligonucleotide‐based fluorescence in situ hybridization probes were developed in the model citrus species Citrus maxima. These probes were applied to comparative karyotyping across 14 species in the Rutaceae family. This analysis revealed chromosomal evolution in lineages that diverged from Citrus nearly 52 million years ago.

A GWAS–machine learning framework reveals protein-synthesis pathway signals for yield in Theobroma cacao after population-structure correction

Scientific Reports
Improving cacao yield, a key objective in post-domestication crop improvement, remains a primary goal for breeders, but progress is often hindered by the confounding effects of population structure.

Lipid Metabolism and Actin Cytoskeleton Regulation Underlie Yield and Disease Resistance in Two Coffea canephora Breeding Populations

Plants
Distinct breeding populations of Coffea canephora often exhibit genetic divergence, yet the biological pathways underlying yield and leaf rust resistance in contrasting populations remain poorly understood.

Natural Variation of COLD and CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 Coordinately Fine‐Tunes Cold Tolerance and Tea Quality in Tea Plants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multi‐trait genome‐wide association mapping identifies a central hub regulator, COLD AND CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 (CCR1), and its excellent natural allele variation, coordinately enhancing cold tolerance and promoting catechins biosyntheis. CsCCR1 interacts with CsCBF1/3 and is transcriptionally activated by CsLUX and CsKUA1 to promote catechins ...

Regional Differences in U.S. Consumer Preferences for Native Woody Shrubs With Varying Aesthetic Characteristics

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Native plants offer a variety of aesthetic (e.g., fall colour, fruit, flowers) and functional benefits (e.g., pollinator friendly, wildlife friendly, water management). How these benefits influence consumer choice and perceived value of native versus introduced plants is not well understood.
