Two Glutathione S?Transferase Genes Confer Resistance to Gibberella Ear Rot and Stalk Rot in Maize

- ABSTRACTPlant viruses drive widespread crop epidemics, yet the host plant responses across different cell types, particularly how these responses are influenced by cultivars with varying genetic...

Nitrogen Inhibitors Enhance Photosynthetic Potential by Delaying Maize Leaf Senescence Under Fertigation

- Under fertigation, the combined application of urea?ammonium nitrate solution with nitrogen cycle inhibitors optimized the spatiotemporal availability of nitrogen. By delaying leaf senescence,...

Agro ecological variability, technology adoption, and livelihoods in the Sundarbans delta: evidence from a baseline study

- This research investigates the socio-economic profile, land resources, cropping patterns, livelihood strategies, and technology adoption of farming households in two contrasting agro-ecological...

Cross?Species Transfer of the Maize NAM?ATAF1/2?CUC2 Transcription Factor ZmNAC2 Confers Disease Resistance in Transgenic Rice Without a Yield Penalty

- The maize ZmNAC2 gene, which encodes an NAM?ATAF1/2?CUC2 (NAC2) transcription factor, confers broad?spectrum disease resistance (BSR) when introduced into rice without compromising yield. BSS,...

Do maize chromosomes contribute to genetic variance in proportion to their size in elite populations?

- AbstractQuantitative trait loci (QTLs) are often assumed to be uniformly distributed across the genome in modeling and simulation studies. Our aim was to assess whether the contribution of each...

Integrative chromosome?scale genome analysis of cupuassu provides insights into witches' broom disease resistance and expands genomic resources for Theobroma

- AbstractCupuassu (Theobroma grandiflorum) is a fruit tree native to the Brazilian Amazon and increasingly relevant to regional bioeconomies. Its cultivation is severely affected by witches’ broom...

Integrated GWAS and Fst analysis identify flowering?time regulatory genes in maize

- AbstractFlowering time in maize is a complex quantitative trait regulated by multiple genes, and its genetic variation mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated. In this study, we phenotypically...

Pangenome graph analysis reveals evolution of resistance breaking in spinach downy mildew

20/01/2026 - Filamentous plant pathogens secrete effectors to successfully establish...

Soil characteristics, land suitability and effect of trachyte and basalt rock powders on maize (Zea mays L.) growth and yield on Fluvisols in Cameroon's Sudano-Sahelian zone (Central Africa)

- The Sudano–Sahelian zone of Cameroon, characterized by a low annual rainfall, faces challenges in soil fertility preservation due to agricultural intensification and unsustainable practices....

The Nicotiana benthamiana Biofactory

- ABSTRACTPotato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a globally important food crop with considerable nutritional and economic value. Heat stress significantly inhibits potato plant growth and tuber development,...

Machine Learning?Driven Construction of High?Yielding Cucumber Plant Architectures in Greenhouse Environments

- Schematic summary of the machine learning?driven analysis for high?yield cucumber architecture. This study employs machine learning methods to analyze key shoot and root traits, building a predictive...

Integrating Nano-DAP and inductive cum targeted-yield equations to improve maize productivity and nutrient use efficiency in Alfisols of Karnataka

- IntroductionSoil-specific nutrient management is critical for improving maize (Zea mays L.) productivity in Alfisols, where imbalanced fertilization and low nutrient use efficiency often limit...

Comparative assessment of endogenous lipid transfer protein (LTP) level in genetically modified maize for its relevance in safety assessment

- Volume 17, Issue 1, December 2026.

A functional–structural plant model for dwarf tomato ideotype identification in vertical farming

22/12/2025 - Dwarf tomatoes are well suited for vertical farming due to their compact architecture and determinate growth, but their current genotypes are not optimized for high-density indoor systems. We...

Responses of Root Microbiome and Metabolome Are Linked to Crop Disease Severity

- ABSTRACTPlant microorganisms are an essential component of the host and perform critical functions in plant development and health. Emerging evidence shows that plants use their root exudates to...

Effects of Lipopolysaccharide Core Modulation on Outer Membrane Protein Function and Virulence in Pectobacterium carotovorum

- The LPS core is critical for virulence in Pectobacterium carotovorum, as its truncation disrupts outer membrane protein assembly, reducing protease secretion, motility, and soft rot...

Potato dihaploids uncover diverse alleles to facilitate diploid potato breeding

- AbstractCommercial potato (Solanum tuberosum) in North America is a clonal autotetraploid crop, which complicates breeding. Efforts are underway to convert potato to a diploid inbred?hybrid crop,...

An in-situ methodology to separate the contribution of soil water content and salinity to EMI-based soil electrical conductivity

- Salt accumulation in the root zone limits agricultural productivity and can eventually lead to land abandonment. Therefore, monitoring the spatial distribution of soil water content and solution...

Analysis of the maize production chain in the central?south region of Angola

- AbstractMaize is a critical crop for meeting the dietary needs of the global population, yet its production chain faces significant challenges that undermine economic viability. This study aimed to...

Tandem MADS?Box Genes FUL2 and MADS1 Form a Regulatory Module to Repress Serotonin Biosynthesis via Direct ASMT5 Activation in Tomato Fruit

- ABSTRACTThe regulation of serotonin metabolism during fruit development and ripening remains poorly understood, despite its potential roles in plant defence and human nutrition. Here, we demonstrated...

Serial Spatial Transcriptomes Reveal Regulatory Transitions in Maize Leaf Development

- ABSTRACTPlant leaves originate from the shoot apical meristem (SAM) and undergo a developmental process of highly coordinated gene expression regulation. To date, only a few key regulators have been...
