Overcoming Reproductive Compromise Under Heat Stress in Wheat: Physiological and Genetic Regulation, and Breeding Strategy

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The reproductive compromise under heat stress is a major obstacle to achieve high grain yield and quality in wheat worldwide. Securing reproductive success is the key solution to sustain wheat productivity by understanding the physiological mechanism and

Loss of susceptibility as a novel breeding strategy for durable and broad-spectrum resistance [PDF]

, 2010
Recent studies on plant immunity have suggested that a pathogen should suppress induced plant defense in order to infect a plant species, which otherwise would have been a nonhost to the pathogen. For this purpose, pathogens exploit effector molecules to

Heat shock transcription factors (Hsfs) in Taraxacum kok-saghyz Rodin: Identification, classification, phylogeny and expression analysis

Current Plant Biology, 2023
The Heat Shock Transcription Factor (Hsf) serves as a critical transcription factor in plants, exerting its function by binding to specific promoter regions in response to heat stress.

Exogenous Abscisic Acid Affects the Heat Tolerance of Rice Seedlings by Influencing the Accumulation of ROS

Antioxidants, 2023
Heat stress (HS) has become one of the major abiotic stresses that severely constrain rice growth. Abscisic acid (ABA) plays an important role in plant development and stress response.

Breeding for durable resistance to Puccinia sorghi: status and strategies [PDF]

, 2023
Australia has experienced an increase in incidence and severity of maize common rust (CR), caused by Puccinia sorghi, which could threaten the maize industry. Over a 120 isolates collected from seven maize growing regions were stored and maintained their

Breeding for resistances to Ralstonia solanacearum [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Ralstonia solanacearum is one of the most devastating bacterial plant pathogens due to its large host range, worldwide geographic distribution and persistence in fields. This soilborne pathogen is the causal agent of bacterial wilt and it can infect major agricultural crops thereby reducing significantly their yield.

Comparative transcriptome analysis of the mechanism difference in heat stress response between indica rice cultivar “IR64” and japonica cultivar “Koshihikari” at the seedling stage

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
Heat stress (HS) has become a major abiotic stress in rice, considering the frequency and intensity of extreme hot weather. There is an urgent need to explore the differences in molecular mechanisms of HS tolerance in different cultivars, especially in ...

Scrapie prevalence in sheep of susceptible genotype is declining in a population subject to breeding for resistance [PDF]

, 2010
Background Susceptibility of sheep to scrapie infection is known to be modulated by the PrP genotype of the animal. In the Netherlands an ambitious scrapie control programme was started in 1998, based on genetic selection of animals for breeding.
