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.

Genomic insights into trichome and inflorescence evolution of the palaeopolyploid tree genus Greyia
SUMMARY The southern African endemic tree Greyia Hook. & Harv. (Francoaceae, Geraniales) comprises three species distinguished by striking variation in trichome morphology and inflorescence architecture, yet the genomic and regulatory basis of these traits has remained largely unexplored.

A modular UDP‐glycosyltransferase and cytochrome P450 system for soyasaponin C‐22 modification
SUMMARY Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) produces triterpenoid saponins, called soyasaponins, which are categorised as 2,3‐dihydro‐2,5‐dihydroxy‐6‐methyl‐4H‐pyran‐4‐one (DDMP) saponins and group A saponins based on the chemical modifications at the C‐22 position of their triterpene skeleton.

SUMMARY Specialised metabolism is an important factor in how plants cope with biotic and, to a lesser extent, abiotic stress. Current approaches to identify and study the genes involved in such metabolic pathways mainly leverage genomic and transcriptomic datasets of plants, in order to improve our understanding of plant resilience.

SUMMARY Annexins (ANNs) are Ca2+‐dependent phospholipid‐binding proteins that play important roles in plant responses to environmental stress. However, the apple ANN gene family and the regulatory mechanisms by which ANNs participate in cold‐stress responses remain poorly understood.
