Genomic and culture-based analysis of Cyclaneusma minus in New Zealand provides evidence for multiple morphotypes

Phytopathology Research
Cyclaneusma needle cast, caused by Cyclaneusma minus, affects Pinus species world wide. Previous studies suggested the presence of two distinct morphotypes in New Zealand, ‘verum’ and ‘simile’. Traditional mycological analyses revealed a third morphotype

High‐Contiguity Haplotype‐Resolved Genome Assembly of the Hexaploid Actinidia valvata Rootstock Sheds Light on Waterlogging Resistance Gene

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyploidisation, creating redundant or diverged copies of the genome, is a major driving force in plant evolution, diversification and environmental adaptation, including for the kiwifruit genus (Actinidia Lindl.). We present a high‐contiguity, haplotype‐resolved genome assembly of the hexaploid Actinidia valvata rootstock cultivar ...

Selection of Apple Trees (Malus domestica Borkh.) Based on Genetic Parameters Estimated Through Mixed Models

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Brazilian apple breeding (Malus domestica Borkh.), Active Germplasm Banks are providing the genetic diversity required for selecting genotypes with low chilling requirements, high yield and superior fruit quality. This study estimated genetic parameters and perform genotype selection based on phenotypic traits from the IDR‐Paraná breeding ...

Systemic and Local Regulation of Root Growth by Vascular Trehalose 6‐Phosphate is Correlated With Re‐allocation of Primary Metabolites Between Shoots and Roots

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trehalose 6‐phoshpate (Tre6P) is a key signalling molecule that reflects carbon status and integrates it with developmental decision making. Tre6P has been demonstrated to regulate various developmental processes, including vegetative growth, shoot branching, flowering, and root branching.

Early Detection of Myrtle Rust on Pōhutukawa Using Indices Derived from Hyperspectral and Thermal Imagery

Remote Sensing
Myrtle rust is a very damaging disease, caused by the fungus Austropuccinia psidii, which has recently arrived in New Zealand and threatens the iconic tree species pōhutukawa (Metrosideros excelsa).

Compliance in Regulatory Gray Areas: The Case of the Organic Seed Standard

Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adaptive regulations, designed to balance flexibility with accountability, can embed provisions that unintentionally leave room for firms to shirk on their responsibilities by exploiting flexibility. We call these provisions “regulatory gray areas,” and ask: how should we understand (non‐)compliance in adaptive regulatory settings?

Drought‐Induced Abscisic Acid Accumulation in Soybean Roots Depends on NCED Gene Expression More Than Shoot‐to‐Root ABA Transport

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 4166-4177, July 2026.
Abstract Abscisic acid (ABA) is a key phytohormone in plant responses to water deficit. Although there is extensive evidence that roots can synthesise ABA, recent findings suggest that local synthesis in response to dehydration contributes little to the root ABA pool compared to shoot‐sourced ABA.

Scion-to-Rootstock Mobile Transcription Factor CmHY5 Positively Modulates the Nitrate Uptake Capacity of Melon Scion Grafted on Squash Rootstock

, 2022
It is generally recognized that the root uptake capacity of grafted plants strongly depends on the rootstocks’ well-developed root system. However, we found that grafted plants showed different nitrate uptake capacities when different varieties of ...

Marker Selection in Multivariate Genomic Prediction Improves Accuracy of Low Heritability Traits

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Multivariate analysis using mixed models allows for the exploration of genetic correlations between traits. Additionally, the transition to a genomic based approach is simplified by substituting classic pedigrees with a marker-based relationship matrix ...

Effects of Polyamide‐6 Bulk Plasma Treatment on Morphology, Crystallinity and Mechanical Properties of Microfibrillar Composites

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue S2, Page S261-S274, 20 June 2026.
Microfibrillar composite containing highly oriented, plasma‐treated PA6 microfibrils embedded within the polymer matrix. ABSTRACT Plasma treatment is often used to alter chemical surface characteristics of fibers or polymers, improving dispersion of components and interfacial adhesion between incompatible constituents in composites.
