Genetic architecture of phenological, morphological, and phytochemical traits in Cannabis landraces

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Despite its long history of cultivation and diverse applications, Cannabis sativa remains underexplored at the genomic level, particularly in landrace populations that harbor untapped genetic diversity. In this study, we investigated the genetic architecture of 145 Iranian cannabis landrace accessions, including both male and female plants ...

Genetic dissection and transcriptomic analysis of a novel high‐tillering phenotype in rice derived from weedy rice (Hapcheonaengmi3) and Tongil‐type Rice (Milyang23)

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Rice (Oryza sativa L.) tillering is a critical determinant of grain yield, yet the genetic mechanisms underlying non‐productive tillers remain poorly understood. Here, we report a novel high‐tillering (HT) phenotype derived from a cross between the elite cultivar Milyang23 and weedy rice Hapcheonaengmi3. The HT phenotype was absent in parental

Nucleomorph phylogenomics suggests a deep and ancient origin of cryptophyte plastids within Rhodophyta

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3103-3113, June 2026.
Summary The evolutionary origin of red algae‐derived complex plastids remains obscure. Cryptophyta, one of four eukaryotic lineages harboring these plastids, still contains nucleomorphs, which are highly reduced remnants of red algal nuclei. The genes present on nucleomorph genomes can be used for phylogenomic reconstruction in order to unravel the ...

Bioconversion of carotenoids into high‐value crocins using a marine sponge carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3230-3246, June 2026.
Summary Carotenoids and apocarotenoids are widespread specialized metabolites, yet animals, including sponges, lack the ability to synthesize carotenoids de novo and must obtain them from dietary or microbial sources. The roles of carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) in marine animals remain largely unexplored. A CCD from the marine sponge Suberites

Beyond red/far‐red sensing: phytochrome perception of the marine light field by microalgae

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2837-2844, June 2026.
Summary Phytochromes (PHYs) are a major group of photoreceptors, described as red and far‐red light sensors in land plants. Recent genomic and metagenomic explorations have revealed the presence of PHYs also in various eukaryotic microalgae originating from distinct endosymbiotic events.

Constitutive and inducible oleoresin defenses share genetic architectures and mechanisms in Pinus taeda

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2966-2987, June 2026.
Summary The oleoresin defense system of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) protects trees from insects and pathogens and is an important source of renewable biofuels and chemicals, but the genetic basis of oleoresin production is poorly understood. We characterized the genetic architecture of oleoresin flow, resin canal number, stem wood terpene content, and ...

Phytohormonal and Transcriptomic Mechanisms of Multigenerational Stress Memory in Wheat Under Weed Competition

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 6, Page 3436-3454, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Multigenerational stress exposure induces stress memory in plants, influencing resource allocation, defence mechanisms, and productivity. Weed competition imposes both resource‐based (abiotic) and allelopathic (biotic) stress, engaging overlapping hormonal pathways.

3RAD‐Guided SNP Discovery for Species Identification and Conservation of the Medicinal Southern African Tree Genus Greyia Hook. & Harv.

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
A two‐phase SNP discovery and assay‐development strategy was used to resolve species boundaries within the tree genus Greyia, as overlapping phenotypes and distributions limit accurate identification. From 47,726 genome‐wide SNPs generated by 3RAD sequencing, a diagnostic 23‐SNP Type panel was developed and validated, successfully distinguishing G ...

Integration of Genome‐Skimming Sequencing and Morphological Evidence Reveals Two New Endemic Species of Sinocrassula From Yunnan Province, China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Sinocrassula crassifolia. ABSTRACT Sinocrassula represents the medium‐sized Asian genus within Crassulaceae, exhibiting maximum species diversity in China. This study presented the first comprehensive phylogenetic analyses of Sinocrassula, utilizing both sanger data and next‐generation sequencing data.
