Phosphate-solubilizing fungus (PSF) - mediated phosphorous solubilization and validation through Artificial intelligence computation.

Phosphate-solubilizing fungus (PSF) strain alaromyces funiculosus was investigated for phosphorus solubilization, utilizing a range of pH levels and phosphate sources, followed by data confirmation through artificial intelligence modeling. T. funiculosus strain was exposed to five different phosphate sources [Ca(PO), FePO, CaHPO, AlPO, and phytin] at different pH levels (4.

Inactivation of a candidate effector gene of Zymoseptoria tritici affects its sporulation.

Background: Wheat is one of the most important staple crops produced worldwide. Its susceptibility to plant diseases reduces its production significantly. One of the most important diseases of wheat is septoria tritici blotch, a devastating disease observed in fields with wet and temperate conditions.

Innovation in the Breeding of Common Bean Through a Combined Approach of Regeneration and Machine Learning Algorithms.

Common bean is considered a recalcitrant crop for regeneration and needs a repeatable and efficient regeneration protocol for its improvement through biotechnological approaches. In this study, the establishment of efficient and reproducible regeneration followed by predicting and optimizing through machine learning (ML) models, such as artificial neural network algorithms, was performed. Mature embryos of common bean were pretreated with 5, 10, and 20 mg/L benzylaminopurine (BAP) for 20 days followed by isolation of plumular apice for regeneration and cultured on a post-treatment medium containing 0.

Magnesium- a Forgotten Element: Phenotypic Variation and Genome Wide Association Study in Turkish Common Bean Germplasm.

Magnesium (Mg) is the fourth most abundant element in the human body and plays the role of cofactor for more than 300 enzymatic reactions. In plants, Mg is involved in various key physiological and biochemical processes like growth, development, photophosphorylation, chlorophyll formation, protein synthesis, and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Keeping in view the importance of this element, the present investigation aimed to explore the Mg contents diversity in the seeds of Turkish common bean germplasm and to identify the genomic regions associated with this element.
