(Re)-conciliation of genetics and genomics approaches for cotton fiber quality improvement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The integration of genomics and plant breeding is driven by the increasing availability of sequence resources and by technological developments. The simultaneous measurement of the expression of thousands of genes is possible, and comparisons between ...

Molecular polymorphisms that underlie trait variation in crops: Lessons learned from soybean. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Genome
Abstract Genetic variation within a germplasm is important in crop improvement, providing a foundation for breeders to develop new varieties. Traits of agronomic and economic importance are often mapped to identify the genetic basis of observed phenotypes, oftentimes using quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis.

Natural Variation in TaFAD8‐D Promoter Enhances Thermotolerance in Wheat Through Fatty Acid and Lipid Remodelling

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heat stress (HS) has become an increasing threat to wheat productivity under global warming. However, the genetic loci for thermotolerance and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. In this study, genetic mapping identified a thermotolerance locus, QMpe.cau‐2D, encoding fatty acid desaturase 8 (FAD8), with the transposable

A multi-trait multi-environment QTL mixed model with an application to drought and nitrogen stress trials in maize (Zea mays L.) [PDF]

open access: yes
Despite QTL mapping being a routine procedure in plant breeding, approaches that fully exploit data from multi-trait multi-environment (MTME) trials are limited.

Cell‐Type‐Specific and Variety‐Specific Responses to Salt Stress in Wheat Root Revealed by Single‐Cell Transcriptomics

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinization threatens the yield and quality of wheat. Roots are critical for the salt stress response, yet their cell‐type‐specific mechanisms remain unclear. We conducted the first single‐nucleus RNA sequencing analysis of wheat root tips from salt‐sensitive (CS) and ‐tolerant (DK) varieties under salt stress, profiling 188 270 high ...

The Zma‐miRNA319‐ZmMYB74 Module Regulates Maize Resistance to Stalk Rot Disease by Modulating Lignin Deposition

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stalk rot, primarily caused by Fusarium graminearum (Fg) and Pythium inflatum (Pi), is a major maize disease responsible for significant yield losses. The molecular mechanisms governing defence against these pathogens remain poorly understood. To uncover key miRNAs and their regulatory genes, small RNA, degradome, and transcriptome sequencing ...

From Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) discovery to nutrigenetics

open access: yes, 2016
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 ...

OrchidMD: An Integrated and User‐Interactive Orchid Multi‐Omics Database for Mining Genes and Biological Research

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Orchidaceae family, with its unparalleled species diversity among angiosperms, is integral to ornamental, medicinal, cultural, and ecological value. Multi‐omics techniques have proven invaluable for the identification of candidate genes and the advancement of functional genomics research. Nevertheless, the application of these technologies
