A Single‐Base Mutation in TaWAK3‐B Reduces Plant Height via Cytoskeleton in Bread Wheat
ABSTRACT Introduction of Reduced height (Rht) genes into modern wheat cultivars has resulted in ‘Green Revolution’ that skyrocketed wheat grain yields worldwide since the 1960s. These ‘Green Revolution’ cultivars show shorter plant height, but higher lodging resistance and harvest index.

Analysis on Mapping of Rice Grain Thickness QTLs under Multiple Environments
【Objective】Grain thickness is one of the controlling factors affecting rice yield and taste quality of rice. QTL mapping for grain thickness in rice was conducted by using recombinant inbred lines (RIL) with the indica-japonica cross (V20B/CPSLO17 ...

ABSTRACT Clubroot, a severe soil‐borne disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, poses a severe threat to global production of Brassicaceae oilseed crops and vegetables. To date, there has been a serious lack of clubroot‐resistant germplasms in Brassica napus (AACC), necessitating the urgent development of novel disease‐resistant germplasm.

ABSTRACT Sheath blight disease of rice caused by the fungal pathogen R. solani AG1‐IA remains a big threat to rice production worldwide. A limited genetic variation in rice for tolerance to this pathogen and little success in understanding how it defeats host defence are major reasons behind it.

An Elite Haplotype of Nitrogen‐Use‐Efficiency Gene LHT5 Enhances Salt Tolerance in Rice
ABSTRACT Amino acids serve as fundamental building blocks and signalling molecules in plants, orchestrating stress adaptation mechanisms against diverse biotic and abiotic environmental challenges. However, the mechanism by which plants alter their nutrient metabolism processes to coordinate nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and salt tolerance remains ...

Challenges in Bringing Pangenome Research Into Breeding: A Case Study in Rice
ABSTRACT Crop breeding has entered the pangenomics era, unlocking a far more comprehensive view of genetic diversity than a single reference genome can capture. In rice (Oryza sativa), a staple crop critical to global food security, the construction of pangenome resources has uncovered extensive structural variations (SVs), presence/absence variations (

Dynamics of Gene and Allelic Expression During Modern Hybrid Maize Breeding
ABSTRACT Maize breeding has greatly improved yield through single‐cross hybrids, but the underlying gene regulatory changes remain unclear. This study analysed transcriptomes of landmark maize hybrids and their parents across developmental stages and planting densities.

ABSTRACT Head milled rice rate (HMRR) is a critical trait determining rice yield and economic value, yet its genetic basis remains poorly understood. Here, through genome‐wide association study across multiple environments, we identified a major QTL, qHMRR4‐2, and pinpointed OsPUB77, a U‐box E3 ubiquitin ligase, as the causal gene.

AhBWR15, A Novel RLK Gene, Confers Resistance to Ralstonia solanacearum in Peanut
ABSTRACT Bacterial wilt (BW), a severe soil‐borne disease caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, significantly impedes global peanut production. Despite its impact, the mechanisms underlying BW resistance in peanut remain unclear. Herein, we selected the highly resistant variety Nongdahua108 (H108) and the susceptible variety Nongdahua107 (H107) to develop ...
