Background: Rye (Secale cereale L.) is the most widely used related species in wheat genetic breeding, and the introduction of its chromosome fragments into the wheat genome through distant hybridization is essential for enriching the genetic diversity of wheat. Rapid and accurate detection of rye chromatin in the wheat genome is important for distant hybridization.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFStripe rust and powdery mildew are serious diseases that severely decrease the yield of wheat. Planting wheat cultivars with powdery mildew and stripe rust resistance genes is the most effective way to control these two diseases. Introducing disease resistance genes from related species into the wheat genome via chromosome translocation is an important way to improve wheat disease resistance.

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has become one of the most severe pandemics in human history. In this paper, we propose to leverage social media users as social sensors to simultaneously predict the pandemic trends and suggest potential risk factors for public health experts to understand spread situations and recommend proper interventions. More precisely, we develop novel deep learning models to recognize important entities and their relations over time, thereby establishing dynamic heterogeneous graphs to describe the observations of social media users.
