White clover (Trifolium repens L.) is a high-quality leguminous forage, but its short rooting habit, poor transpiration tolerance, and drought tolerance, have become a key factor restricting its growth and cultivation. 1R-MYB transcription factors (TFs) are a significant subfamily of TFs in plants, playing a vital role in regulating plant responses to drought stress, however, knowledge about the role of 1R-MYB transcription factors in white clover is still limited.

Kinship determination is a valuable tool in forensic genetics, with applications including familial searching, disaster victim identification, and investigative genetic genealogy. Conventional typing of small numbers of autosomal short tandem repeats (STRs) confidently identifies only first-degree relatives. Massively parallel sequencing (MPS) can access more STRs and resolve alleles identical by length but differing in sequence (isoalleles), which may increase the power of kinship estimation, particularly when combined with additional sequenced single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) loci, as in the ForenSeq DNA Signature Prep kit.

Background: Magnesium (Mg) is essential for plant growth and development and plays critical roles in physiological and biochemical processes. Mg deficiency adversely affects growth of plants by limiting shoot and root development, disturbing the structure and membranes of the grana, reducing photosynthesis efficiency, and lowering net CO assimilation. The MGT (Magnesium transporter) family is responsible for the absorption and transportation of magnesium in plants.

Background: The C-repeat binding factor (CBF)/dehydration-responsive element binding (DREB1) belongs to a subfamily of the AP2/ERF (APETALA2/ethylene-responsive factor) superfamily, which can regulate many physiological and biochemical processes in plants, such as plant growth and development, hormone signal transduction and response to abiotic stress. Although the CBF/DREB1 family has been identified in many plants, studies of the CBF/DREB1 family in alfalfa are insufficient.
Results: In this study, 25 MsCBF genes were identified in the genome of alfalfa ("Zhongmu No.

Purpose: Analyze morphokinetic, morphology, and KIDscore™Day5 in different PGT-A classes, focusing on putative mosaicism level and type.
Methods: The single-center retrospective study analyzed 832 embryoscope-cultured blastocysts from cycles with at least one putative mosaic, conducted from 2020 to 2022. A P-value < 0.
