Physical mapping of the 5S and 45S rDNA in teosintes [PDF]

open access: yesHereditas, 2002
The physical locations of the 5S and 45S rDNA sequences were examined in three types of teosinte, Zea mays ssp. mexicana (2n = 20), Zea diploperennis (2n = 20) and Zea perennis (2n = 40) by biotinylated fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The tested materials only showed one hybridization site of 5S rDNA on their genomes, but they were different

The multifaceted regulatory network of microRNA396: Orchestrating plant plasticity through coordinating development and various stresses

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 3073-3085, August 2026.
This review examines the character and function of the microRNA miR396, which helps plants balance growth, reproduction, regeneration, and survival under various stresses, highlighting recent progress and evidence that this pathway shapes crop yield, pest and disease resistance, and tissue regeneration, making it a promising target for precision crop ...

Evolution of meiotic recombination genes in maize and teosinte [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2017
Meiotic recombination is a major source of genetic variation in eukaryotes. The role of recombination in evolution is recognized but little is known about how evolutionary forces affect the recombination pathway itself. Although the recombination pathway is fundamentally conserved across different species, genetic variation in recombination components ...

Genomic forecasting for climate‐resilient fruit trees

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 1640-1653, August 2026.
Genomic offset and required evolutionary changes under climatic shifts. Summary Fruit trees – long‐lived perennial crops cultivated for their edible fruits or nuts and frequently propagated clonally – are increasingly exposed to climate extremes that threaten their productivity and survival.

Designed Alleles of ZmRap2.7 Decouple the Trade‐Off Between Early Flowering and Yield Penalty

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 4966-4983, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Flowering time genes often exhibit pleiotropic effects. In particular, early flowering is frequently associated with reduced grain yield due to a shorter growth period. This trade‐off poses a major challenge for developing early‐maturing and high‐yielding varieties, a key breeding objective in modern maize production. Here, we demonstrate that

Breeding value of prolific maize varieties with nicking of parental lines

open access: yesТруды по прикладной ботанике, генетике и селекции, 2019
Background. Production of multiple-ear maize varieties is quite complicated because of asynchronous flowering in parents. Solving the problem of flowering asynchrony by breeding methods will allow breeders to improve the yield through increasing the ...

Prediction and Characterization of Cationic Arginine-Rich Plant Antimicrobial Peptide SM-985 From Teosinte (Zea mays ssp. mexicana)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are effective against different plant pathogens and newly considered as part of plant defense systems. From prokaryotes to eukaryotes, AMPs can exist in all forms of life.

Scientific assessment of the 2024 post‐market environmental monitoring report on the cultivation of genetically modified maize MON 810 in the EU

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract At the request of the European Commission, EFSA assessed the 2024 post‐market environmental monitoring (PMEM) report on the cultivation of genetically modified maize MON 810, which expresses the Cry1Ab protein. Using a weight‐of‐evidence approach and considering information provided by the consent holder and the Competent Authorities of ...

Cryptic homoeology analysis in species and hybrids of genus Zea

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2013
Cryptic intergenomic pairing of genus Zea was induced by the use of a diluted colchicine solution in order to elucidate the phylogenetic relations and differentiation of the homoeologous genomes. Results indicate that in species and hybrids with 2n = 20,

The BnTFL1‐BnJAM3‐BnSWEETs Module Orchestrates Seed Storage Reserve Accumulation in Brassica napus

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 37, 3 July 2026.
BnaC03.TFL1 and BnaA01.JAM3 form a complex that facilitates the transport of soluble sugars from the seed coat to the embryo by directly activating the expression of BnSWEETs. Furthermore, BnaC03.TFL1 and BnaA01.JAM3 work cooperatively to promote soluble sugar and oil production while suppressing protein deposition.
