Trans‐QTL Alliance of HKT1 and PHL7 Modulate Salinity Stress Tolerance and Enhance Crop Yield Endurance

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salinity stress can cause significant yield losses in crops because of its major impact on reproductive success. The complexity of salinity stress responses, particularly their tissue‐ and cell‐specific regulation, continues to challenge the translation of molecular insights into tangible crop yield improvements.

Serum microRNA expression quantitative trait loci in children with asthma colocalize with asthma-related GWAS results

npj Genomic Medicine
Asthma poses a significant public health burden. Despite identifying more than a hundred genetic risk loci in genome-wide association studies (GWAS), the underlying functional mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Natural Variation of a PPR Coding Gene SST1 Confers Salt Tolerance During Soybean Domestication

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinity is one of the constraints that adversely affect seedling growth and limit soybean yield. Identifying salt tolerance genes and profiling their allele variants are crucial for elucidating the mechanisms underlying salt tolerance in soybean and enabling the genetic improvement of salt‐tolerant cultivars.

Rare variants contribute disproportionately to quantitative trait variation in yeast. [PDF]

, 2019
How variants with different frequencies contribute to trait variation is a central question in genetics. We use a unique model system to disentangle the contributions of common and rare variants to quantitative traits.

Strategy for mapping quantitative trait loci (QTL) by using human metapopulations.

Croatian medical journal, 2006
To present a novel strategy for mapping quantitative trait loci (QTL), using human metapopulations. The strategy is based on the expectation that in geographic clusters of small and distinct human isolates, a combination of founder effect and genetic drift can dramatically increase population frequency of rare QTL variants with large effect.

ZmMYB127 Modulates Maize Kernel Texture and Size by Integrating the Synthesis of Starch, Zein Proteins and Auxin

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Kernel texture is an important agronomic trait that determines the end‐uses of maize kernels and affects their integrity at harvest and susceptibility to pests and diseases. The ratio of the vitreous endosperm (RVE) is the key index for assessing kernel texture, and identifying key genes involved in its formation is crucial for maize breeding.
