Multifaceted roles of BBX transcription factors: impacts on key agronomical traits and environmental resilience

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 762-787, April 2026.
Summary B‐box (BBX) proteins were initially characterized as transcription factors connecting light signaling to the regulation of flowering time and seedling photomorphogenesis. However, over the last decade, increasing evidence has shown that they integrate light and hormone signaling, modulating multiple physiological processes during plant life. In

Meta‐GWAS of Pig Semen Quality Traits Reveals Conserved Genes Regulating Mammalian Fertility

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
This study incorporated 14 210 individuals to perform a GWAS meta‐analysis of six semen quality traits. The GWAS meta‐analysis identifies 234 GWAS loci associated with semen quality traits. The incorporation with a functional genomics resource explains potential genetic regulation of ∼40% GWAS signals underlying semen quality traits.

From Natural Discovery to AI‐Guided Design: A Curated Collection of Compact Enhancers for Crop Engineering

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 13, 3 March 2026.
This study establishes an integrated platform combining high‐throughput screening (STEM‐seq) and AI‐guided design (BaseSearch) to develop compact transcriptional enhancers in crops. We identified thousands of functional short enhancers (60–80 bp) across four species, with the strongest showing 46.3‐fold activation.

Genome‐wide association analyses reveal loci controlling 1000‐kernel weight, harvest index, biological yield, and grain yield in bread wheat

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Understanding the genetic basis of grain yield and related traits in bread wheat under different water regimes is essential for improving moisture stress tolerance and water‐use efficiency. This study aimed to identify stable loci associated with these traits under rainfed conditions.

Genetic architecture of plasma pTau217 and related biomarkers in Alzheimer's disease via genome‐wide association studies

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION We aimed to define the genetic architecture and regulatory mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease (AD) ‐related plasma biomarkers in an East Asian population. METHODS Genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) of plasma phosphorylated tau at threonine 217 (pTau217), pTau181, neurofilament light chain (NfL), and glial fibrillary acidic ...
