Programmable Domestication: CRISPR, Pan‐Genomics and System Level Engineering for Next‐Generation Crops

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Conceptual overview of programmable de novo domestication from genetic diversity discovery to crop deployment. The framework connects diverse germplasm and genomic resources with three trajectory pathways. Adaptive Rescue, Agronomic Refinement and Novel Chassis defined by biological distance, engineering complexity and breeding objectives.

Can Africa replicate Asia's green revolution in rice ? [PDF]

Asia's green revolution in rice was transformational and improved the lives of millions of poor households. Rice has become an increasingly important part of African diets and imports of rice have grown.

Early senescence of rice and Drechslera oryzae in the Wageningen Polder, Surinam [PDF]

, 1977
Rice is grown in monoculture in the Wageningen Polder, Surinam, South America, which comprises 10 000 ha of heavy clay soil. Fungal diseases caused appreciable losses of the rice crop in several years.

Converging GWAS and Genome Editing Decrypts MsCBF8‐MsGolS2 Regulatory Module for Drought Tolerance Without Yield Penalty in Medicago sativa

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought constitutes a major abiotic stress limiting alfalfa productivity. To elucidate the genetic basis of drought tolerance, a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) was conducted in alfalfa, which identified a CBF/DREB1 family transcription factor designated MsCBF8.

Screening for Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) Resistance in Early‐Maturing Tropical Maize Adapted to Sub‐Saharan Africa

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fall armyworm (FAW) (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) has emerged as a serious pest since 2016 in Africa, affecting the food security and livelihoods of millions of smallholder farmers, especially those growing maize. Native genetic resistance to FAW is essential for reducing yield loss.

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Between Archaeology and Text: The Origins of Rice Consumption and Cultivation in the Middle East and the Mediterranean [PDF]

, 2014
Asiatic Rice Oryza sativa L. (Poaceae) is a domesticated grain crop native to the tropical and subtropical regions of Asia, which presently ranks among the most important grains in a global diet.

Silicon ameliorates manganese toxicity by regulating physiological processes and expression of genes associated with photosynthesis in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

, 2015
Background and aims: We investigated the effects of silicon (Si) on chlorophyll concentration, photosynthesis, leaf chloroplast ultrastructure, and expression of genes involved in photosynthesis to elucidate the mechanisms through which Si mediated ...

A Century of Understanding and Harnessing Heterosis

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heterosis has shaped modern plant breeding since Darwin's 19th century observations that outcrossing restores vigour lost through selfing. While 100 years old, its mechanistic basis and deployability remain actively debated. Classical models of dominance, overdominance and epistasis provided the foundation for hybrid breeding and converted ...

Rice Orange Leaf Phytoplasma Imp Protein Blocks G–M Interaction by Binding Glycoprotein G to Suppress Rice Stripe Mosaic Virus Infection

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants frequently encounter multiple pathogens concurrently, yet the molecular bases of pathogen–pathogen interactions during mixed infections remain largely unresolved. Here we show that co‐infection of rice by Rice orange leaf phytoplasma (ROLP) and Rice stripe mosaic virus (RSMV) markedly suppresses RSMV proliferation in both host plants ...
