Focus on DnaJ protein research from Arabidopsis to crop improvement
Abstract DnaJ proteins (Hsp40s) are essential components of the cellular proteostasis network, functioning as molecular co‐chaperones that regulate protein folding, stability, and stress‐responsive homeostasis in plants. Beyond their classical role as Hsp70 partners, accumulating evidence demonstrates that DnaJ proteins participate in diverse ...

Abstract Improving seed size and weight is a major breeding goal in mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek). Improved genomic resources and precision phenotyping may enable more efficient selection for seed trait improvement. In this study, we integrated a deep learning–based segment anything model phenotyping pipeline with genome‐wide association ...

ABSTRACT Climate change‐induced heat stress increasingly threatens crop production, particularly when high temperatures occur during the sensitive flowering stage. In maize, successful fertilization depends on viable pollen, successful pollen germination and subsequent pollen tube elongation reaching the ovule.

ABSTRACT Rapid stomatal regulation is an early response associated with improved maintenance of leaf water status and post‐stress recovery in soybean, but it cannot fully offset the detrimental effects of severe drought on seed production. This study evaluated the physiological and morphological responses of soybean genotypes to progressive water ...

The richness, frequency and relatedness components of mate diversity and mate portfolios
The effects of (a) equal and (b, c) unequal contributions to mate portfolios by 10 mates on (d) Hill‐number mate diversity profiles (see Eqn 1). Summary Sexual reproduction produces genetically diverse families, especially when individuals mate with multiple partners.

Desiccation tolerance mechanisms in the green lineage and beyond
Ancient origin and recurrent evolution of desiccation tolerance in the green lineage. Summary Water is essential for life on Earth, yet some plants can survive the near‐complete loss of cellular water, a trait known as desiccation tolerance. Although rare in vegetative tissues of vascular plants, desiccation tolerance is scattered across the plant ...

Germination Requirements and Management Implications for Kyllinga gracillima (False Green Kyllinga)
ABSTRACT Understanding weed biology, particularly factors influencing seed germination, can help develop effective weed management strategies. This research evaluated the effects of temperature, light, and water stress on the germination of Kyllinga gracillima (false green kyllinga). Seeds collected in Indiana (IN) and New Jersey (NJ) were subjected to
