Rare Natural SNP Activates SHOOT APICAL MERISTEM ENLARGER1 to Increase Branch Number and Silique Number on the Main Inflorescence in Brassica napus

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brassica napus is the second most important oil crop worldwide. Number of primary branches (Branch number, BN) and silique number on the main inflorescence (SMI) are key yield‐related quantitative traits. Here, we cloned a major QTL, qDB.A09, which simultaneously influences BN and SMI.

A Branched SNF1‐Related Protein Kinase 2 Signalling Cascade Controls ABA‐Induced Ethylene Production and Regulates Both Fruit Ripening and Reproductive Growth

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Control of fruit ripening, quality and yield is of major scientific, nutritional and commercial importance. The burst of ethylene (ET) production at the initiation of ripening is the most critical event controlling climacteric (CL) fruit ripening, yet little is known about how it is initiated.

Haploid Mutation Mapping Identifies a Homoeologous Non‐Reciprocal Translocation Linked to Reduced Fibre and Enhanced Protein in Brassica napus

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A key challenge for the genetic improvement of canola (Brassica napus), one of the world's most important oilseeds, is the limited natural variation for commercially important traits. The creation of new variation is hindered by the lack of functional knowledge about genes controlling these traits.

OsMT2b Regulates Pollen Development and ROS Homeostasis in a Photoperiod‐Dependent Manner

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are signalling molecules that promote programmed cell death in animal and plant systems. However, their role in rice (Oryza sativa L.) anther development is unclear. In this study, we show that lower transcript levels of the metallothionein gene OsMT2b in japonica rice plants obtained by RNA interference (RNAi ...

SBP‐Box Transcription Factor JcSPL9 Regulates Both Seed Yield and Oil Content in the Biofuel Plant Jatropha curcas

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Jatropha curcas is a promising feedstock for biodiesel and bio‐jet fuels production; however, its seed yield is constrained by limited inflorescences. SPL9 is a member of the SBP‐box gene family that promotes the juvenile‐to‐adult phase transition.
