Article Synopsis
  • This study focuses on the genetic transformation of perennial ryegrass, essential for research, by testing various explants and genotypes for effective callus induction.
  • The researchers successfully transformed callus tissues with plasmids for gene silencing and CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, resulting in 262 transgenic events using 19 different constructs.
  • The findings demonstrate a new method to broaden the types of ryegrass genotypes that can be transformed, aiding in research and breeding efforts to enhance this crucial grass species used for forage and recreation.

Despite the progress made in DNA sequencing over the last decade, reconstructing telomere-to-telomere genome assemblies of large and repeat-rich eukaryotic genomes is still difficult. More accurate basecalls or longer reads could address this issue, but no current sequencing platform can provide both simultaneously. Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.

Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) as integrated components for ultrasensitive sensing, time keeping, or radio frequency applications have driven the search for scalable nanomechanical transduction on-chip. Here, we present a hybrid silicon-on-insulator platform for building NEM oscillators in which fin field effect transistors (FinFETs) are integrated into nanomechanical silicon resonators. We demonstrate transistor amplification and signal mixing, coupled with mechanical motion at very high frequencies (25-80 MHz).
