Insights Into the Origin and Local Adaptation Evolution of the Cultivated Sesame With Telomere‐to‐Telomere High‐Quality Genome [PDF]
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sesame (Sesamum indicum L., 2n = 26) is one of the oldest oilseed crops and is often called the ‘queen of oilseeds’ due to its high content of unsaturated fatty acids and natural antioxidants. Despite its long history, the origin and global spread of cultivated sesame remain unresolved.

Population Genomics Approaches Identify a Cryptic, Emerging Generalist Pest Complex [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.Molecular gut content analysis and RAD‐seq analysis revealed a peanut pest complex where previously only one species was considered problematic. Both species exhibited a wide, but somewhat distinct, variety of plants among their diets, and peanut‐feeding was rare. Diet generalism combined with a stepwise pattern of dispersal among fields might underlie

Interspecific Hybridization between Sesamum indicum L. and Ceratotheca sesamoides Endl [PDF]
Tropicultura, 2001 Sesamum indicum L. (2n = 26) and Ceratotheca sesamoides Endl. (2n = 32) were crossed to investigate their genomic relations and feasibility of gene exchange. Results showed that crossability between the two species was low.
