In Vivo Propagation of Root Explants of the Dandelion Species Taraxacum kok‐saghyz, Taraxacum officinale and Their Interspecific Hybrids

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dandelion species Taraxacum kok‐saghyz is a promising new crop for natural rubber production and is currently in the early stages of the breeding process. To support these efforts, the multiplication and conservation of defined genotypes are crucial.

CRISPR/Cas‐Mediated Gene Editing in Plant Immunity and Its Potential for the Future Development of Fungal, Oomycete, and Bacterial Pathogen‐Resistant Pulse Crops

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pulses provide myriad health benefits and are advantageous in an environmental context as a result of their leguminous nature. However, phytopathogenic fungi, oomycetes and bacteria pose a substantial threat to pulse production, at times leading to crop failure.

The Role of Gene Flow in the Diversification of the Monkey Treefrog Complex Across the South American Dry Diagonal

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding Neotropical megadiversity remains challenging due to fundamental taxonomic issues, including identifying and describing cryptic species and their distribution, and the limited knowledge of key factors driving biological diversification. Such challenges are especially prominent in diverse clades with high levels of cryptic species,

A Phylogenetic Analysis of the Genus Fragaria (Strawberry) Using Intron-Containing Sequence from the ADH-1 Gene [PDF]

, 2014
The genus Fragaria encompasses species at ploidy levels ranging from diploid to decaploid. The cultivated strawberry, Fragaria×ananassa, and its two immediate progenitors, F. chiloensis and F. virginiana, are octoploids.

Pitfalls and missing links in current understanding of 4D genomes

Quantitative Biology, Volume 14, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract The spatial and temporal organization of the genome—collectively termed the 4D genome—is pivotal for regulating gene expression, maintaining genome stability, and guiding development. The convergence of chromosome conformation capture technologies, super‐resolution microscopy, and single‐cell epigenomics has transformed our understanding of ...

Tn‐seq of Thermus thermophilus Genome Reveals Unexpected Tolerance to Insertions in Bacterial Common Essential Genes

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
Tn‐seq analysis of Thermus thermophilus genome reveals insertions in almost all genes, this is, there is no clear discrimination of essential genes. A similar result has not been reported in other Tn‐seq analysis of bacterial genomes so far. The polyploidy of the Thermus genome could explain the apparent non‐essentiality of key genes.

CRISPR/Cas Genome Editing and Its Applications in Cereal Crop Improvement

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT CRISPR/Cas‐based genome editing has emerged as a transformative tool for precise genetic improvement of cereal crops. Recent advances in CRISPR technologies, including Cas9, Cas12, Cas13, base editing, and prime editing, have enabled targeted modification of genes and regulatory elements controlling yield, stress tolerance, and grain ...

Complexities of chromosome landing in a highly polyploid, aneuploid, interspecific genome: Towards map-based cloning of a resistance gene (bru1) in sugarcane (2n=ca 115) [PDF]

, 2009
The genom e of modern sugarcane cultivars is highly polyploid (~12x), aneuploid, of interspecific origin, and contains 10 Gb of DNA. Its size and complexity represent a major challenge for the isolation of agronomically important genes.

Hybridity of mainly asexually propagating duckweeds in genus Lemna – dead end or breakthrough?

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 629-647, April 2026.
Summary The cosmopolitan, mainly vegetatively propagating, organ‐reduced monocotyledonous aquatic duckweeds are the smallest and fastest growing angiosperms, distributed world‐wide and flower rarely in nature. Recently, we reported intra‐ and interspecific hybrids and ploidy variants in the genus Lemna.
