As an important member of the plant receptor-like kinases, receptor-like kinase 1-like (CrRLK1L) plays vital roles in plant growth and development, as well as biotic and abiotic stress response. Numerous CrRLK1Ls have been identified and analyzed in various plant species, while our knowledge about eggplant ( L.) CrRLK1Ls is still scarce.

Among these factors, epigenetic regulation holds significant importance and has garnered substantial research attention in recent years. Here, this review aims to discuss the breakthrough in epigenetic regulation of tomato () fruit ripening, including DNA methylation, N-Methyladenosine mRNA modification, histone demethylation/deacetylation, and non-coding RNA.

However, the causal associations between micronutrient levels or supplements and AD risk remain unclear. We performed a two-sample Mendelian randomization (2SMR) analysis to evaluate the causal associations between micronutrient levels and supplements and AD risk.
