Integrated GWAS and Fst analysis identify flowering‐time regulatory genes in maize

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Flowering time in maize is a complex quantitative trait regulated by multiple genes, and its genetic variation mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated. In this study, we phenotypically evaluated flowering‐related traits (days to tasseling, days to pollen shedding, days to silking) across six different environments using an association ...

Genome‐wide association and haplotype analyses reveal genetic architecture of seed dormancy in grain sorghum with implications for preharvest sprouting tolerance

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Preharvest sprouting (PHS), triggered primarily by wet or humid conditions at maturity and further influenced by temperature, causes premature grain germination in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench), reducing yield and grain quality. To elucidate the genetic architecture of seed dormancy and germination responses related to PHS tolerance ...

Do maize chromosomes contribute to genetic variance in proportion to their size in elite populations?

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) are often assumed to be uniformly distributed across the genome in modeling and simulation studies. Our aim was to assess whether the contribution of each chromosome to genetic variance (VG) is proportional to its length in maize (Zea mays L.).

Impact of environmental covariates summarization on predictive ability in genomic selection

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Integrating genomic and environmental information holds the potential for enhancing the predictive power of genomic prediction models when accounting for the genotype‐by‐environment interactions. Hence, incorporating environmental covariates (EC) into these models can significantly influence their predictive accuracy.

Fine mapping and functional analysis of the candidate gene OFP17, regulating both seed and fruit sizes in cotton

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Single cotton boll weight (BW) and seed index (SI, 100‐seed weight) are key determinants of lint and seed yield, yet their genetic basis remains poorly understood. Here, a stable interploidy introgression line with small boll from Gossypium arboreum in Gossypium hirsutum, NB298, was employed to map quantitative trait loci (QTLs) of BW and SI ...

Integrative chromosome‐scale genome analysis of cupuassu provides insights into witches' broom disease resistance and expands genomic resources for Theobroma

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Cupuassu (Theobroma grandiflorum) is a fruit tree native to the Brazilian Amazon and increasingly relevant to regional bioeconomies. Its cultivation is severely affected by witches’ broom disease (WBD), caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa. While a chromosome‐scale genome of the susceptible genotype C1074 is available, the lack of a resistant ...

Identification of stripe rust adult plant resistance genes in the hard winter wheat cultivar Baker's Ann

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, is among the most destructive wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) diseases. Identifying resistance genes is crucial for the development of resistant cultivars. Baker's Ann, a hard winter wheat cultivar developed by Oklahoma State University, has shown stable adult plant resistance to stripe ...

Seed shattering in a North American Oryzeae grain: Developmental and genomic signatures of early domestication

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Northern Wild Rice (NWR; Zizania palustris L.) is an aquatic grain endemic to North America and a member of the Oryzeae tribe. As an outcrossing crop with a short breeding history, domestication progress in cultivated NWR (cNWR) is ongoing, and seed shattering remains a major barrier to yield stability.
