The activities and gene expression of antioxidative enzymes and the ROS content were analyzed in two typical storage-tolerant cultivars (Xushu 32 and Shangshu 19) and another two storage-sensitive cultivars (Yanshu 25 and Sushu 16) to explore the association between the storage capacity of sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam) and ROS scavenging capability. The storage roots of the storage-tolerant cultivars maintained higher activities and expression levels of antioxidative enzymes, including ascorbate peroxidase (APX), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), and superoxide dismutase (SOD); lower activity and expression of lipoxygenase (LOX); and lower accumulation of ROS metabolites compared with the storage-sensitive cultivars. The antioxidative capability and ROS parameters of leaves were positively correlated with those of storage roots. Our results provide valuable insight for evaluating the storability of sweetpotato cultivars by analyzing the capabilities of the antioxidative system and the contents of ROS metabolites.

and are major pests of sweetpotato. The ability of to cause symptoms and reproduce on nematode-resistant cultivars threatens the sweetpotato industry. To evaluate the penetration, development, and reproduction of and on sweetpotato, a time-course study was conducted using the genotypes 'LA14-31' (resistant to and intermediate-resistant to ), 'LA18-100' (susceptible to and resistant to ), and 'LA19-65' (resistant to and susceptible to ), with 'Beauregard' (susceptible to both species) and 'Jewel' (resistant to and intermediate-resistant to ) as controls.

Flooding stress poses a significant challenge to soybean cultivation, impacting plant growth, development, and ultimately yield. In this study, we investigated the responses of two distinct soybean cultivars: flooding-tolerant Nanxiadou 38 (ND38) and flooding-sensitive Nanxiadou 45 (ND45). To achieve this, healthy seedlings were cultivated with the water surface consistently maintained at 5 cm above the soil surface.

Over the last several years, foot rot caused by has become the most destructive sweetpotato disease in the southernmost region of Japan. Breeding of cultivars resistant to foot rot is required for effective and low-cost management. Field tests are often used to evaluate resistance of cultivars, but this approach has several limitations, including a long test period of several months and the requirement of field isolation and labor-intensive procedures.

Article Synopsis
- Bacterial stem and root rot (BSRR) in sweetpotato, caused by Dickeya dadantii, is a major threat in China, with the study identifying Guangshu87 (GS87) as resistant and Xinxiang (XX) as susceptible.
- RNA sequencing revealed significant differences in gene expression between the two cultivars, with GS87 showing enhanced regulation of resistance-related genes after infection.
- The study highlighted the roles of phytohormones, reactive oxygen species, and specific hub genes in the resistance mechanisms of GS87 against D. dadantii, providing insights into potential targets for genetic improvement.

Article Synopsis
- The heat shock transcription factor (HSF) family in plants is key for responding to stressors like heat, salt, and drought, and researchers identified 22 HSFs in garlic using transcriptome data.
- Through bioinformatics, three subfamilies of HSFs were characterized, and RT-qPCR revealed varying responses of nine selected genes to heat stress.
- The isolated HSF gene AsHSFB1, when overexpressed in Arabidopsis thaliana, led to poorer stress resistance compared to wild-type plants, indicating its potential negative regulatory role in garlic’s response to high stress.
