Unravelling Mechanisms of Acquired Drought Tolerance by Priming in Tomato Using Integrative Multi‐Omics Phenotypic Analysis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The escalating frequency and intensity of recent droughts threaten global crop production and food security. Although drought priming is crucial for plant drought resilience, the mechanisms imparting drought stress memory remain poorly understood, especially in crops such as tomato. This study elucidates the mechanisms of drought stress memory

A High‐Throughput Phenotyping Pipeline for Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) Panicles Using Image Analysis With Convolutional Neural Networks

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quinoa is a grain crop with excellent nutritional properties that has attracted global attention for its potential contribution to future food security in a changing climate. Despite its long history of cultivation, quinoa has been improved little by modern breeding and is a niche crop outside its native cultivation area.

Variation in Water-Holding Capacity in Sphagnum Species Depends on Both Plant and Colony Structure

Plants
Peatlands have become a focal point in climate mitigation strategies as these ecosystems have significant carbon sequestration capacities when healthy but release CO2 and other greenhouse gases when damaged.

Screening for Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) Resistance in Early‐Maturing Tropical Maize Adapted to Sub‐Saharan Africa

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fall armyworm (FAW) (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) has emerged as a serious pest since 2016 in Africa, affecting the food security and livelihoods of millions of smallholder farmers, especially those growing maize. Native genetic resistance to FAW is essential for reducing yield loss.

Enhancing Predictive Ability of Agronomic and Quality Traits in Ethiopian Malting Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Using Spectral Variable Selection Methods

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Phenomic selection (PS) offers a cost‐effective, breeder‐friendly approach for public breeding programmes with limited access to genotyping or restricted financial resources for laboratory infrastructure. Since PS relies on high‐throughput phenotyping data, which is often derived from near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) of harvested seeds ...

Interspecific and intraspecific phenotypic diversity for drought adaptation in bioenergy Arundo species

GCB Bioenergy, 2021
Biomass crops are commonly grown in low‐grade land and selection of drought‐tolerant accessions is of major importance to sustain productivity. In this work, we assess phenotypic variation under different environmental scenarios in a series of accessions

Molecular Chaperone Networks in Plants: Maintaining Proteostasis and Enhancing Stress Resilience for Crop Improvement

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.

Mitochondrial Respiratory Metabolism in Salt‐Stressed Barley (Hordeum vulgare): TCA Cycle Activation With Limited GABA Shunt Engagement

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants maintain energy balance under salinity stress through increased respiration and energy use, processes also associated with reactive oxygen species generation. Although respiration imposes a high energy cost, mitochondrial respiration and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle activity are vital for ATP production and for providing electron ...
