Background: Chinese cabbage is a cross-pollinated crop with remarkable heterosis, and male-sterile line is an important mean to produce its hybrids. In this study, a male-sterile mutant msm7 was isolated from a Chinese cabbage DH line 'FT' by using EMS-mutagenesis.
Results: Compared with the wild-type 'FT', the anthers of mutant msm7 were completely aborted, accompanied by the defects in leaf and petal development.

Growth heterosis is crucial for Populus deltoides breeding, a key industrial-timber and ecological-construction tree species in temperate regions. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying carbon (C)-nitrogen (N) metabolism coordination in regulating growth heterosis remain unclear. Herein high-hybrids of P.

Background: and have obvious morphological features and strongly tolerate saline-alkali environments. However, the mechanisms that lead to the differences in saline-alkali tolerance between them remain unclear.
Methods: In this study, we employed comparative transcriptome analysis to investigate and under saline-alkali stress.

Feature selection (FS) is a significant dimensionality reduction technique, which can effectively remove redundant features. Metaheuristic algorithms have been widely employed in FS, and have obtained satisfactory performance, among them, grey wolf optimizer (GWO) has received widespread attention. However, the GWO and its variants suffer from limited adaptability, poor diversity, and low accuracy when faced with high-dimensional data.

Background: Rice is the main food crop for much of the population in China. Therefore, selecting and breeding new disease resistance and drought tolerance in rice is essential to ensure national food security. The utilization of heterosis has significantly enhanced rice productivity, yet many of the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain largely unexplored.
