Genomic prediction of resistance to Phytophthora megakarya in cacao from a sparse host-pathogen screen
Black pod rot caused by Phytophthora megakarya is a major disease impacting cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) production in West Africa.Salt stress shifts wild tomato root systems toward transport efficiency along a gravitropism-constrained Pareto front
- Root system architecture balances the carbon cost of building roots (wiring cost) against transport speed to the shoot (conduction delay).From smartphone to gene: Automated image-based phenotyping captures flowering diversity of common buckwheat
Common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) exhibits an indeterminate flowering habit, resulting in the simultaneous occurrence of flowering, seed development and seed ripening.The chromatin-associated PWO proteins interface with circadian and epigenetic signaling to regulate flowering time in Arabidopsis
Flowering time is a major determinant of reproductive success in plants and is regulated by several interconnected pathways which converge on few key flowering time-related genes.IDENTIFICATION OF CANDIDATE GENES UNDERLYING A NOVEL QTL FOR ROOT LENGTH AND DIAMETER IN BARLEY IN RESPONSE TO SALINITY
Salinity is a major agricultural problem that decreases growth and yield of crops and is expected to worsen with climate change.
