A Gain‐of‐Function Mutation in DELLA Selectively Alters Protein Interactions to Regulate Wheat Tiller Angle and Plant Height

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant architecture, especially plant height and tiller angle, plays a pivotal role in determining wheat yield. In this study, we characterize a wheat mutant termed prostrate and semidwarf 1 (prose1), exhibiting both a prostrate growth habit and semidwarfism.

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Cultivar‐Specific Production of Unreduced Pollen in the Ornamental Bigleaf Hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla ssp. macrophylla)

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Unreduced gametes naturally promote polyploidization and are valuable in breeding polyploid offspring. Bigleaf hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla ssp. macrophylla), a major ornamental crop, has shown spontaneous polyploidization rates ranging from 0% to 94% in previous crosses.

Integrated Analysis of Grapevine Responses to Winter Pruning Reveals Temperature‐Associated, Polyphenol‐Rich Xylem Occlusions

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Perennial crops are continually wounded throughout cultivation. To limit pathogen infection and tissue dehydration, plants have evolved a range of wound responses that protect damaged tissues. These responses include changes in gene expression and the synthesis of protective compounds such as polyphenols.

Inflorescence Photosynthesis Determines Resource Allocation, Seed Production and Senescence in an Agricultural Weed

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural weeds typically combine high reproductive output with fast vegetative growth. Here we analyzed the processes that overcome a potential trade‐off between vegetative growth and reproduction in the weed Avena fatua. We determined photosynthetic function of inflorescences and analyzed the transcriptomes of individual inflorescence ...

Mixed‐vertebrate pollination traits and pollinators of Haageocereus acranthus (Cactaceae) in a lomas desert ecosystem of coastal Peru

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In a lomas desert ecosystem of coastal Peru, the columnar cactus Haageocereus acranthus shows traits and interactions consistent with a mixed‐vertebrate pollination system (hummingbirds and bats), with no detectable differences between flower colour morphotypes in either traits or interactions.

Stress‐specific metabolic and physiological responses to drought and waterlogging in Allium cepa L. and Allium × cornutum Clementi ex Vis.

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Drought and waterlogging induce distinct species‐specific metabolic, physiological and transcriptional responses in Allium cepa and Allium × cornutum. Abstract Increasing variability in water availability, caused by changing climatic conditions, is a major constraint for onion production.
