Quiescin Sulfhydryl Oxidase‐Like 1 Positively Regulates Seed Dormancy in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed dormancy is an adaptive strategy that enables plants to survive adverse environmental conditions. In agricultural contexts, an optimal level of dormancy is essential: Insufficient dormancy can result in preharvest sprouting, while excessive dormancy may lead to uneven germination and poor stand establishment in subsequent crops.

Identification of a two-marker-haplotype on Bos taurus autosome 18 associated with somatic cell score in German Holstein cattle

BMC Genetics, 2009
Background The somatic cell score (SCS) is implemented in routine sire evaluations in many countries as an indicator trait for udder health. Somatic cell score is highly correlated with clinical mastitis, and in the German Holstein population ...

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.

Spring Is Coming: Genetic Analyses of the Bud Break Date Locus Reveal Candidate Genes From the Cold Perception Pathway to Dormancy Release in Apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Chilling requirement (CR) for bud dormancy completion determines the time of bud break in apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.). The molecular control of bud dormancy is highly heritable, suggesting a strong genetic control of the trait. An available Infinium

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.

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.

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

Plant 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
