Rosa rugosa is an important shrub with economic, ecological, and pharmaceutical value. A high-quality chromosome-scale genome for R. rugosa sequences was assembled using PacBio and Hi-C technologies. The final assembly genome sequences size was about 407.1 Mb, the contig N50 size was 2.85 Mb, and the scaffold N50 size was 56.6 Mb. More than 98% of the assembled genome sequences were anchored to seven pseudochromosomes (402.9 Mb). The genome contained 37,512 protein-coding genes, with 37,016 genes (98.68%) that were functionally annotated, and 206.67 Mb (50.76%) of the assembled sequences are repetitive sequences. Phylogenetic analyses indicated that R. rugosa diverged from Rosa chinensis ∼6.6 million years ago, and no lineage-specific whole-genome duplication event occurred after divergence from R. chinensis. Chromosome synteny analysis demonstrated highly conserved synteny between R. rugosa and R. chinensis, between R. rugosa and Prunus persica as well. Comparative genome and transcriptome analysis revealed genes related to colour, scent, and environment adaptation. The chromosome-level reference genome provides important genomic resources for molecular-assisted breeding and horticultural comparative genomics research.

A comparative metabolomic study of three varieties of wild Rosa (, , and ) from a Kamchatka expedition (2024) was conducted via extraction with supercritical carbon dioxide modified with ethanol (EtOH), and detection of bioactive compounds was realized via tandem mass spectrometry. Several experimental conditions were investigated in the pressure range 50-350 bar, with the used volume of co-solvent ethanol in the amount of 2% in the liquid phase at a temperature in the range of 31-70 °C. The most effective extraction conditions are the following: pressure 200 Bar and temperature 55 °C for ; pressure 250 Bar and temperature 60 °C for ; pressure 200 Bar and temperature 60 °C for .

is a representative aromatic species. Wild roses are known for their strong tolerance to highly salty environments, whereas cultivated varieties of roses exhibit lower salt stress tolerance, limiting their development and industrial expansion. Previous studies have shown that C2H2-type zinc finger proteins play a crucial role in plants' resistance to abiotic stresses.

Roses () are a famous flower with high ornamental and economic value. But the petals of roses are usually pink and purple, which restricted its application in garden settings. Flavonols and anthocyanins are crucial secondary metabolites related to flower pigmentation in plants.

Article Synopsis
  • Chlorophyll is essential for photosynthesis in plants, and its breakdown is facilitated by chlorophyllase (CLH), which has not been thoroughly studied in Rosaceae species, especially in apples.
  • In this research, 20 different CLH genes were identified across seven Rosaceae species, with variations in their amino acid composition, structure, and location within the plant cells.
  • The study also discovered that these CLHs are active in response to environmental factors and are predominantly expressed in leaf tissues, with MdCLH1 specifically shown to localize in chloroplasts of tobacco leaves.

Article Synopsis
  • The microbial composition in the guts of western flower thrips (WFT) is influenced by their diet, affecting both their food habits and the gut bacteria present.
  • A study analyzed gut bacteria from WFT feeding on different plant parts, revealing that those on rose flowers had the highest bacterial diversity, while those on kidney bean pods showed the greatest abundance.
  • Dominant gut microbes included Proteobacteria across all populations, with diet-specific variations in other bacteria, indicating that diet significantly shapes the gut microbiota in WFT and could impact their ecological adaptability.
