PlantRG: A Comprehensive and User‐Friendly Database for Plant Resistance Gene Analogs (RGAs)

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Resistance genes are critical for plant defence against biotic stresses, and building a comprehensive, integrated data resource platform for these genes holds great significance for plant research and agriculture. Here, we developed PlantRG (http://plantrg.bio2db.com), a user‐friendly plant resistance gene database, which is built on 2 163 397

High‐Contiguity Haplotype‐Resolved Genome Assembly of the Hexaploid Actinidia valvata Rootstock Sheds Light on Waterlogging Resistance Gene

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyploidisation, creating redundant or diverged copies of the genome, is a major driving force in plant evolution, diversification and environmental adaptation, including for the kiwifruit genus (Actinidia Lindl.). We present a high‐contiguity, haplotype‐resolved genome assembly of the hexaploid Actinidia valvata rootstock cultivar ...

Iterative Genome Engineering Platform Enables Efficient Sucrose Biosynthesis From CO2 in Photosynthetic Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The single crossover occurring via homologous recombination is a common phenomenon existing among microbes like Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Vibrio natriegens, Gluconobacter oxydans and most cyanobacteria species, threatening the stability of engineered strains and challenging iterative genetic engineering. Among them, we take the fast‐

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Design of an effective sgRNA for CRISPR/Cas9 knock-ins and full mutant segregation in polyploid Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 [PDF]

Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 is a highly promising organism for the production of diverse recombinant compounds, including biofuels. However, conventional genetic engineering in Synechocystis presents challenges due to its highly polyploid genome, which ...

Using Nuclear Genomic Data to Address Intractable Relationships and Gene Tree Discordance in an Ancient Group of Gymnosperms (Ephedra, Gnetales)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Low‐copy nuclear genes were used to address the notoriously difficult phylogeny of Ephedra. Additionally, we explored the potential effect of putative paralogy, intra‐locus recombination, and chimeric sequences on phylogenetic estimation. ABSTRACT The evolutionary history of Ephedra L.

Cytogenetic Analysis of Altitude‐Associated Chromosome Variations in Campeiostachys nutans From Western Sichuan Plateau Using Multicolor GISH and ND‐FISH Approaches

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
The genomic and chromosomal organization of C. nutans was investigated using GISH and ND‐FISH with four oligonucleotide probes. The results showed that repetitive sequence distribution exhibited genome‐specific patterns: the H genome demonstrated high structural stability with low polymorphism, while the St genome showed moderate variation, and the Y ...

Effects of the aurora kinase inhibitors AZD1152-HQPA and ZM447439 on growth arrest and polyploidy in acute myeloid leukemia cell lines and primary blasts

Haematologica, 2008
Background Aurora kinases play an essential role in the orchestration of chromosome separation and cytokinesis during mitosis. Small-molecule inhibition of the aurora kinases has been shown to result in inhibition of cell division, phosphorylation of ...

Understanding of Molecular Mechanisms and Breeding Strategies for Enhancing Oleic Acid Biosynthesis in Oil Crops

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Oleic acid (C18:1), a monounsaturated fatty acid, is a key determinant of nutritional value and oxidative stability of vegetable oils. Increasing its concentration has therefore become a central objective in oilseed crop improvement. This review summarizes current knowledge on the molecular mechanisms and breeding strategies underlying oleic ...
