ABSTRACT The florigen protein TaFT1 coordinately regulates heading time and spikelet number per spike (SNS), serving as a key yield determinant in wheat. However, how its stability is post‐translationally controlled in the shoot apical meristem remains unclear.

Natural Variation in GmSL20 Improves Seed Size and Quality in Soybean
ABSTRACT Seed size plays an important role in determining crop yield, yet the genetic mechanisms underlying the regulation of this agronomic trait remain incompletely understood in soybean. Here, we perform a genome‐wide association study mapping with seed length variations and identify a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 20, named ...

From Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) discovery to nutrigenetics
The study of the interactions between genetics and nutrition has gained new impetus with the development of high-throughput genomic approaches allowing for a comprehensive approach of the variability of gene sequences or activity. The object of nutrigenetics is to identify the genetic determinants (sequence polymorphisms) of the variability of ...

ABSTRACT Grain size is a critical agronomic trait, yet the molecular mechanisms governing its determination in crops remain incompletely understood. While recent studies revealed that OsRING80 facilitates DENSE AND ERECT PANICLE 2 (DEP2) degradation to mediate immunity without impacting growth and development, our work identifies a distinct regulatory ...

Haplotypes and Machine Learning Improve Genomic Prediction in Brassica napus
ABSTRACT Genomic selection (GS) is a crop and livestock improvement method suited for predicting complex agronomical traits, while genomic prediction (GP) is the development of GS models prior to their practical use in breeding programs. One of the challenges in GP is accounting for how complex genomic interactions, such as epistasis, affect the ...

ABSTRACT Quinoa is a grain crop with excellent nutritional properties that has attracted global attention for its potential contribution to future food security in a changing climate. Despite its long history of cultivation, quinoa has been improved little by modern breeding and is a niche crop outside its native cultivation area.
