ABSTRACT The host genetic factors that resulted in the heterogeneous clinical outcomes of COVID‐19 remained poorly understood, especially in admixed populations that are underrepresented in global genomic studies. In this study, we investigated the genetic landscape associated with COVID‐19 severity using whole‐exome sequencing data from 325 Brazilian ...

β‐Thalassemia intermedia exhibits distinct region‐specific molecular patterns shaped by three interacting genetic axes: β‐globin mutation severity, HbF‐inducing modifiers, and α‐globin gene dosage. Mediterranean populations are predominantly mutation‐driven, Middle Eastern populations rely on HbF compensation, and Asian populations are governed by ...

Capsicum chinense as an African traditional vegetable: Culture, resilience, and opportunity
Capsicum chinense is central to everyday diets, cultural identity, and smallholder livelihoods across Sub‐Saharan Africa, yet remains overlooked in agricultural research and policy. This paper reframes C. chinense as a traditional, climate‐resilient vegetable shaped by centuries of farmer stewardship and cultural selection.

From wild to tamed: Reimagining novel crops through omics and local plant diversity
The global food system faces growing pressure from climate change, biodiversity loss, and rising nutritional demands. Agriculture has increased yields but reduced crop diversity, flavor, and nutritional quality, leaving societies vulnerable and dependent on a narrow set of staple species.

We screened a panel of 98 Brassicaceae genotypes (97 Brassica napus and 1 Sinapis alba) for cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) larval antibiosis. We found limited evidence for antibiosis across B. napus but consistent antibiosis in S. alba. Brassicaceae relatives may therefore better inform resistance traits for breeding.

Winter oilseed rape in Europe suffers frequent pathogen losses. This review outlines key integrated pest management (IPM) strategies, rotation, residue and tillage management, optimized sowing, resistance, and targeted fungicides supported by forecasting.

This graphical abstract illustrates how quantitative resistance to Leptosphaeria maculans in canola is experimentally estimated through multi‐environment replicated trials measuring crown canker severity. Genotype, environment and pathogen sources feed into phenotyping, followed by variance partitioning using mixed models and beta regression to ...

This study demonstrates that Brassica napus lines with Sinapis alba introgressions enhanced resistance against Phyllotreta cruciferae, resulting in reduced feeding damage and improved seedling physiological performance. The introgressed lines showed strong potential as genetic resources for developing more resilient and sustainable canola varieties ...

We tested whether the distinctive radical‐leaf morphology of the serpentine ecotype of Adenophora triphylla var. japonica is due to phenotypic plasticity or genetic differentiation. The results suggest that lamina thickening is plastic for water storage, while reduced lamina size and modified petiole traits are genetically fixed adaptations to reduce ...

Photoperiodic flowering is well studied in facultative photoperiodism plants, but the genetic basis of obligate photoperiodism remains poorly understood. Using QTL mapping and RNA‐seq in Mimulus guttatus, we identified photoperiodism‐specific QTLs that are distinct from flowering‐time QTLs, supporting switch‐like genetic control of obligate long‐day ...
