Drosophila male genitalia rotation depends on permissive remodeling of the posterior abdomen

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background One of the most characteristic morphogenetic processes in Drosophila is the 360° rotation of the male pupal genital disc. This movement is driven by the myosin Myo1D, whose expression in the genital disc is controlled by the Hox gene Abdominal‐B (Abd‐B).

Micropropagation and Polyploid Induction of Acer platanoides ‘Crimson Sentry [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Horticulture, 2013
Protocols were developed for micropropagation and induction of autopolyploids in a fastigiate cultivar of Norway maple (A. platanoides L. ‘Crimson Sentry’). Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium, woody plant medium (WPM), and Quoirin and Lepoivre medium were supplemented with 2 μM 6-benzylaminopurine (BA), meta-Topolin, 6-(γ,γ-dimethylallylamino) purine ...

Genetic and Molecular Basis of Processing Traits and Genetic Improvement Progress in Major Fruit Crops

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Processing quality in fruit crops is governed by complex genetic networks controlling texture, sweetness, color, browning, aroma, and nutritional quality. Advances in genomics, genomic selection, and genome editing enable the development of processing‐oriented cultivars with improved industrial performance, reduced postharvest losses, and enhanced ...

A novel and tissue-culture-free polyploidization method based on adventitious bud formation of Populus

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
Polyploid breeding is one of the important approaches for developing new varieties and driving forest germplasm innovation. Existing somatic chromosome doubling methods heavily rely on the sterile requirement of tissue culture and the establishment of ...

A senescence-like cell-cycle arrest occurs during megakaryocytic maturation: implications for physiological and pathological megakaryocytic proliferation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2010
Thrombopoietin (TPO) via signaling through its cognate receptor MPL is a key cytokine involved in the regulation of megakaryocyte differentiation leading to platelet production. Mature megakaryocytes are polyploid cells that have arrested DNA replication

The epigenetic landscape of plant defense: Unlocking nature's toolkit for new plant protection

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
This review examines how epigenetic mechanisms regulate plant immune gene activation, repression, and priming, then links these natural regulatory layers to emerging epigenetic editing, discussing their potential for precise, heritable crop protection and the challenges.

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Induction of polyploids and mechanism of chromosome doubling by aurantia

open access: yesThe Japanese Journal of Genetics, 1955
Seedlings of Raphanus and Pharbitis treated with aurantia showed generally enlarged and thickend characters and when they grew up, about 61% of them were gigantic in size of stomata and pollen grains. Surely, 4 plants of Rhaphanus were determined to have doubled chromosomes not only in somatic cells, but also in P.M.C. (Fig.

Plants back: Re‐envisioning botanical garden collections management for indigenous crops

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Botanical gardens and other ex situ collections play a key role in preventing plant extinctions, yet the needs of Indigenous crop cultivars are not being met by conventional botanical collections management practices. Inspired by Indigenous land care restoration movements centering plant–human–society relationships, we propose a path toward reciprocal ...

Induction of polyploidy and its effect on cannabinoid content in Cannabis sativa L.

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
Polyploidy induction is a promising strategy to enhance biomass and secondary metabolite production in medicinal plants. In this study, an optimized protocol was established for polyploid induction in Cannabis sativa L. and evaluated its effects on plant
