Advances in gene cloning and functional genomics approaches for wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) improvement

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a globally important cereal crop which provides ∼20% calories in human diet. Identifying genes and elucidating their functions is still challenging in wheat due to its large genome (∼16 Gb) with significant amount of repetitive elements.

ICAG‐Net: An Interactive CNN–Transformer Architecture With Attention‐Guided Gated Fusion for Crop Disease Detection

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study presents an AI‐driven approach to smart agriculture focused on early detection of crop diseases, especially fungal infections, to enhance food security. An ensemble model combining a Custom CNN for local feature extraction and a pretrained vision transformer (ViT) for global context analysis is proposed.

The annotated blueprint: integrated functional genomic resources for a model tetraploid wheat Triticum turgidum cv Kronos

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1389-1410, May 2026.
Summary Triticum turgidum cv Kronos is a tetraploid wheat cultivar that underpins one of the most widely used community platforms for functional genomics. Over the past decade, researchers have generated c. 3000 exome‐capture (EC) and promoter‐capture (PC) datasets linked to mutagenized seed stocks, along with extensive transcriptomic and phenotypic ...

Septoria Tritici Blotch in Commercial Wheat Crops in England: The Use of Varietal Resistance in Disease Control

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
We analyse a long‐term data set to answer the question: what determines the trends in the Septoria tritici blotch resistance rating of the wheat cultivars grown in England. ABSTRACT Variety choice is one of the key operational decisions a wheat farmer makes.

A new method to measure EC50 reveals cultivar‐specific fungicide resistance and very high diversity within experimental field populations of Zymoseptoria tritici

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3613-3624, April 2026.
We isolated Zymoseptoria tritici strains from a diverse wheat field and quantified fungicide resistance using a novel plate assay. We found high diversity in fungicide sensitivity and host–fungicide–pathogen interactions. Abstract BACKGROUND Zymoseptoria tritici causes Septoria tritici blotch (STB), the most damaging wheat disease in Europe. In Europe,

Pollinator Visitation Alters Cranberry Flower Fungal Communities in Wisconsin Cranberry Agroecosystems

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
A two‐year study reveals shared fungal communities between cranberry flowers and insect visitors, including Apis mellifera, Bombus species, solitary bees and hover flies. Greater fungal richness was present in pollinator‐accessible flowers compared to those that were tented.
