SiDT1 Defines Plant Architecture Reminiscent of Green Revolution in Foxtail Millet
SiDT1 encodes a GA3‐oxidase that creates a semi‐dwarf, lodging‐resistant architecture reminiscent of the rice Green Revolution. The resulting ideotype performs well under dense planting and provides a valuable genetic resource for high‐yield, mechanized foxtail millet production. ABSTRACT Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) is a drought‐tolerant C4 cereal

Transposable elements (TEs) are ubiquitous genomic features. ‘Copy-and-paste’ long-terminal-repeat (LTR) retrotransposons have been particularly successful during evolution of the plant kingdom, representing a substantial proportion of genomes.

Enigma of Retrotransposon Biology in Mammalian Early Embryos and Embryonic Stem Cells
Retrotransposons comprise a significant fraction of mammalian genome with unclear functions. Increasing evidence shows that they are not just remnants of ancient retroviruses but play important roles in multiple biological processes. Retrotransposons are

Transposable Element–Driven PIEZO Mutation Enhances Locust Flight in Plateau Hypoxia
Why transposable elements (TEs) persisted or expanded in genomes remains a mystery. Using integrated analysis of TE macro‐ and microevolution in locusts, our results showed that thousands of TE insertions promoted widespread adaptive variation. Subfamilies of candidate adaptive TEs amplified and reshaped species‐level genomic architecture.

This study reveals that long non‐coding RNAs represent important regulatory components underlying pear domestication and improvement. Integrative multi‐omics analyses identify selected lncRNAs associated with fruit traits, while functional validation uncovers a lignin‐related lncRNA, lncRNA‐pys, that promotes lignin accumulation.

DIRS and Ngaro Retrotransposons in Fungi. [PDF]
Retrotransposons with a tyrosine recombinase (YR) have been discovered recently and lack thorough annotation in fungi. YR retrotransposons are divided into 3 groups: DIRS, Ngaro and VIPER (known only from kinetoplastida).

Investigations of the Evolved Molecular Basis for Terpenoid Biosynthesis in Marine Sponges
Confirming and extending a previous observation in another Bubarida sponge, genomic and functional analyses of A. cavernosa reveal that sponges retain the mevalonate pathway and employ single α‐domain T1TSs and UbiA‐type TSs for terpenoid biosynthesis. The absence of T1TSs clustering with other biosynthetic genes tentatively suggests, based on limited ...

Heterogeneity in Ty1-copia group of retroelements in chickpea (Cicer arietinum) genome [PDF]
Retrotransposons constitute a major fraction of plant genomes and these elements may have played a significant role in evolution and sequence organization of genomes.

By integrating 516 whole‐genome resequencing datasets and 236 transcriptomes of allotetraploid common carp, this study establishes the first population‐scale atlas of transposable element (TE) variation in teleost species. TE bursts, relaxed purifying selection, and lineage‐specific loss of ancient insertions shape genome evolution and phenotypic ...
