Redefining agricultural residues as bioenergy feedstocks [PDF]
The use of plant biomass is a sustainable alternative to the reduction of CO2 emissions. Agricultural residues are interesting bioenergy feedstocks because they do not compete with food and add extra value to the crop, which might help to manage these ...

An annotated list of planthoppers with alternate hosts from Kallar tract of Punjab, Pakistan [PDF]
Diversity of planthoppers and their host plants were studied in the "Kallar" tract of the Punjab, Pakistan (an important growing area of the world for producing Basmati rice). Planthoppers are considered the most important pests of rice.

We revealed a novel role for CCDaV‐RepA as a nuclear transcriptional regulator and citrus utilise this function of RepA to activate ClAOS, which is a key gene that limits the rate of jasmonic acid (JA) synthesis. This enhances JA‐mediated defence response to CCDaV in lemon.

Transgene‐Free, Gene‐Edited Cavendish Bananas (Musa acuminata, AAA)
ABSTRACT Global consumer acceptance of gene‐edited food crops is increasing with new breeding technologies that can modify the genome without foreign DNA integration. Here, we report an Agrobacterium‐based system for transgene‐free, gene editing of the banana cultivar, Cavendish.

Diseases caused by southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV) and rice ragged stunt virus (RRSV) considerably decrease grain yield. Therefore, determining rice cultivars with high resistance to SRBSDV and RRSV is necessary.

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

The JAK-STAT pathway promotes persistent viral infection by activating apoptosis in insect vectors.
The Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway is an evolutionarily conserved signaling pathway that can regulate various biological processes.

Geminivirus sequences as bidirectional transcription termination/polyadenylation signals for economic construction of stably expressed transgenes [PDF]
Bidirectional, convergent transcription of transgenes in transgenic plants can occur due to leaky transcription termination of separate convergent genes or from genomic promoters. It might also be engineered with the purpose of generating double-stranded

The Genetics and Genomics of Virus Resistance in Maize [PDF]
Viruses cause significant diseases on maize worldwide. Intensive agronomic practices, changes in vector distribution, and the introduction of vectors and viruses into new areas can result in emerging disease problems.
