Olive ( L.) is a very important woody tree and favored by consumers because of the fruit's high-quality olive oil. Chloroplast genome analysis will provide insights into the chloroplast variation and genetic evolution of olives. The complete chloroplast genomes of three accessions ( subsp. isolate Yunnan, subsp. var. sylvestris, and subsp. var. frantoio) were obtained by next-generation sequencing technology. A total of 133 coding regions were identified in the three chloroplast genomes without rearrangement. subsp. var. sylvestris and subsp. var. frantoio had the same sequences (155,886 bp), while subsp. isolate Yunnan (155,531 bp) presented a large gap between and genes with six small gaps and fewer microsatellites. The whole chloroplast genomes of 11 were divided into two main groups by a phylogenetic tree and subsp. formed a separate group (Cuspidata group) with the other subspecies (Mediterranean/North African group). Identification of consistency and diversity among subspecies will benefit the exploration of domestication events and facilitate molecular-assisted breeding for .

Background: The modification of protein substrates by small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) plays a vital role in plants subjected to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, its role in the stress responses of Brassica plants remains poorly understood.

Results: A genome-wide analysis revealed the presence of 30 SUMOylation genes in the Caixin genome.

The genus Ficus of the family Moraceae, is one of the largest genera of angiosperms, with diverse pharmaceutical applications and biological activities. The traditional approaches based on the morphological traits have been frequently implemented for taxonomical identification of the different taxa of Ficus, however, encompassing these features are quite laborious, due to the dependence of these phenotypic traits on the environmental conditions. So, authenticating the taxonomical identity of the Ficus taxa with molecular barcoding and metabolic profiling, as relatively stable traits, could be a relevant approach for confirming the traditional phenotypic traits of this genus.

Domestic microwave ovens offer rapid cooking but face challenges such as non-uniform temperature distribution and hot spots. A novel solid-state heating system, which precisely controls microwave frequency and power, provides a promising alternative to traditional microwave ovens utilizing magnetron systems. This study compared the effects of solid-state microwave cooking on the quality of broccoli, red peppers, and carrots with those of traditional microwave and conventional cooking.

Article Synopsis
  • Purple stem mustards, cultivated in the Yangtze River Valley, are facing a serious threat from a soft rot disease, resulting in 20-30% plant loss and severe economic impact in Wuhan, China as of February 2023.
  • Infected plants show symptoms like water-soaked bases, foul odors, and pus-like discharges, eventually leading to death.
  • Researchers isolated 15 strains of bacteria from affected plants, identifying three representative strains through biochemical tests and genetic analysis, aiming to determine the specific cause of the soft rot outbreak.
