ABSTRACT Oral cancer (OC) remains a therapeutic challenge due to limited validated targets. Cis‐pQTLs from the deCODE cohort (n = 35,559) were harmonized with OC‐GWAS (3547 cases and 691,466 controls) meta‐data through a two‐sample Mendelian randomization (MR) framework.

ABSTRACT Biotic stresses, particularly Verticillium wilt (VW), lead to a global decline in cotton yields. Here, we demonstrate that ectopic expression of ScALDH21, a gene from the desiccation‐tolerant moss Syntrichia caninervis Mitt. and absent in angiosperms, enhances cotton's resistance to VW.

Designed Alleles of ZmRap2.7 Decouple the Trade‐Off Between Early Flowering and Yield Penalty
ABSTRACT Flowering time genes often exhibit pleiotropic effects. In particular, early flowering is frequently associated with reduced grain yield due to a shorter growth period. This trade‐off poses a major challenge for developing early‐maturing and high‐yielding varieties, a key breeding objective in modern maize production. Here, we demonstrate that

Natural Arabidopsis thaliana accessions showed remarkable plasticity in both life‐cycle phenology and whole‐genome gene expression patterns in in natura field experiments. Nevertheless, local adaptation in fitness‐related life‐history traits can also be detected at the whole‐genome gene expression level.
