Article Synopsis
- Scientists studied how different types of oilseed rape (a type of crop) flower when it gets really hot.
- They found that most of the varieties flower later in high temperatures, but one type actually flowers earlier.
- The research also shows that certain genes and molecules help control when these plants flower, and understanding this could help grow better crops in warm weather.
Most sorghum biomass accumulates in stem secondary cell walls (SCW). As sorghum stems are used as raw materials for various purposes such as feed, energy and fiber reinforced polymers, identifying the genes responsible for SCW establishment is highly important. Taking advantage of studies performed in model species, most of the structural genes contributing at the molecular level to the SCW biosynthesis in sorghum have been proposed while their regulatory factors have mostly not been determined.

- Broadening the genetic diversity of crops, like barley, is essential to tackle global challenges including climate change.
- Researchers examined 371 different barley varieties, analyzing their genetic data and key traits across various environments.
- The study identified specific genetic profiles that correlate with barley's biological and historical diversity, revealing how different varieties adapt to environmental changes, which can guide breeding efforts to improve crop resilience in the face of climate change.
The correct identification of the anthracnose resistance systems present in the common bean cultivars AB136 and MDRK is important because both are included in the set of 12 differential cultivars proposed for use in classifying the races of the anthracnose causal agent, Colletrotrichum lindemuthianum. In this work, the responses against seven C. lindemuthianum races were analyzed in a recombinant inbred line population derived from the cross AB136 × MDRK.
