TaRIP2 Positively Regulates Wheat Pollen Wall Formation Through MYB80‐Controlled Lipid Metabolism

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2595-2606, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Male‐sterile genes and mutants are critical for hybrid seed production in monocotyledonous crops. Lipids are essential structural components of male reproductive organs, such as the anther and pollen. Here, we show that the pollen‐preferential gene TaRIP2 is essential for wheat anther development and pollen formation. RT‐qPCR analysis revealed

Protoplast‐Based Functional Genomics and Genome Editing: Progress, Challenges and Applications

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 2183-2199, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Protoplast‐based systems provide a powerful and versatile platform for exploring how plants sense and respond to their environment. By enabling the direct delivery of proteins, DNA, and RNA into plant cells after cell wall removal, this approach facilitates precise molecular dissection of signaling, stress adaptation, and gene regulation ...

Can ploidy changes propel the evolution of allogamy in a selfing species complex?

BMC Plant Biology
Background The transition to self-fertilization has occurred repeatedly across diverse plant groups, and the evolutionary consequences of selfing typically suggest that a shift toward outcrossing is unlikely.

Characterization of the polymorphism detected for the granule‐bound starch synthase (WX gene) in wild einkorn wheat

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2437-2446, 15 March 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND The WX gene encodes the granule‐bound starch synthase I or waxy protein, which is the sole enzyme responsible for amylose synthesis in wheat seeds. Wild einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum L. ssp. aegilopoides Link em. Thell.) could be an important source of variation for this gene. RESULTS This study assessed the WX gene variability

Survivin and Aurora Kinase A control cell fate decisions during mitosis

Molecular Oncology, Volume 20, Issue 3, Page 727-752, March 2026.
Aurora A interacts with survivin during mitosis and regulates its centromeric role. Loss of Aurora A activity mislocalises survivin, the CPC and BubR1, leading to disruption of the spindle checkpoint and triggering premature mitotic exit, which we refer to as ‘mitotic slippage’.

Chromatin Topology Reconfiguration Orchestrates Thermotolerant Male Fertility via GhAL5 in Cotton

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 14, 9 March 2026.
This study investigates cotton’s high‐temperature (HT) response using multi‑omics. Dynamic 3D genome changes drive expression bias affecting male fertility. The tolerant line shows controlled chromatin dynamics, while the sensitive line exhibits overactivation.

Time‐Efficient and Informatic‐Skill‐Light Gap‐Filling for Telomere‐to‐Telomere Genome Assembly

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 14, 9 March 2026.
The paper introduces a novel auxiliary software toolbox GapSuite, consisting of two tools Gap‐Aid and Gap‐Graph, which guides users to fill gaps in chromosome‐level genome assembly using sequence‐extension‐based and assembly‐graph‐based strategies. The two tools enable users with limited informatics expertise to efficiently complete gap‐filling on ...

Origin of subgenomes in the circumboreal, allopolyploid, carnivorous plant Drosera anglica

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Premise The parentage of the widespread allopolyploid Drosera anglica, a member of the carnivorous sundew genus, remains uncertain despite over 100 years of morphological, cytological, and, more recently, molecular study. Methods Using transcriptomic and genomic data from 12 species of Drosera sect. Drosera, including four D.

Analysis wheat wild relatives Thinopyrum intermedium and Roegneria kamoji genomes reveal different polyploid evolution paths

Nature Communications
Many wild relatives of wheat in the Triticeae tribe provide important genetic resources for crop improvement, but their complex, polyploid genomes shaped by hybridization remain poorly understood.
