Mediterranean agroecosystems' vulnerability to hydroclimatic extremes threatens their resilience and sustainability. Nature-based Solutions present a sustainable strategy to address global challenges. This meta-analysis of 70 studies developed in Mediterranean climates identified solutions to improve soil health and water quality in agroecosystems by estimating their effects on soil organic matter, organic carbon, water, erosion, and Kjeldahl nitrogen, total nitrogen, nitrate, total phosphorus, phosphate, and suspended solids, respectively.

Mutagenesis is an important tool in crop improvement and free of the regulatory restrictions imposed on genetically modified organisms. Barley ( L.) is a diploid species with a genome smaller than those of other members of the Triticeae crops, making it an attractive model for genetic studies in Triticeae crops.

Genetic screens are powerful tools for biological research and are one of the reasons for the success of the thale cress Arabidopsis thaliana as a research model. Here, we describe the whole-genome sequencing of 871 Arabidopsis lines from the Homozygous EMS Mutant (HEM) collection as a novel resource for forward and reverse genetics. With an average 576 high-confidence mutations per HEM line, over three independent mutations altering protein sequences are found on average per gene in the collection.

Background: Semi-dwarfing alleles are used widely in cereals to confer improved lodging resistance and assimilate partitioning. The most widely deployed semi-dwarfing alleles in rice and barley encode the gibberellin (GA)-biosynthetic enzyme GA 20-OXIDASE2 (GA20OX2). The hexaploid wheat genome carries three homoeologous copies of GA20OX2, and because of functional redundancy, loss-of-function alleles of a single homoeologue would not be selected in wheat breeding programmes.

Article Synopsis
- Genetic variability is key for creating new crop types with beneficial traits, which can come from wild plants or be created through mutations.
- The study explores methods like forward and reverse genetics to identify important genes and improve crops, but faces challenges with genetic redundancy.
- Advanced gene editing tools help researchers understand and modify genes to develop better crops that can resist stress and increase yields without changing their basic genetic structure.
