Wheat heading time is primarily governed by two loci: VRN-1 (response to vernalization) and PPD-1 (response to photoperiod). Five sets of near-isogenic lines (NILs) were studied with the aim of investigating the effect of the aforementioned genes on wheat vegetative period duration and 14 yield-related traits. Every NIL was sown in the hydroponic greenhouse of the Institute of Cytology and Genetics, SB RAS. To assess their allelic composition at the VRN-1 and PPD-1 loci, molecular markers were used. It was shown that HT in plants with the genotype was reduced by 29 and 21 days ( < 0.001) in comparison to HT in plants with the and the genotypes, respectively. In our study, we noticed a decrease in spike length as well as spikelet number per spike parameter for some NIL carriers of the Vrn-A1a allele in comparison to carriers of the allele. PCA revealed three first principal components (PC), together explaining more than 70% of the data variance. Among the studied genetic traits, the and alleles showed significant correlations with PCs. Regarding genetic components, significant correlations were calculated between PC3 and (-0.26, < 0.05) and (0.57, < 0.05) alleles. Thus, the presence of the allele affects heading time, while is associated with plant height reduction.

Background: Digital health interventions have emerged as promising tools to promote health behavior change and improve health outcomes. However, a comprehensive synthesis of strategies contributing to these interventions is lacking.

Objective: This study aims to (1) identify and categorize the strategies used in digital health interventions over the past 25 years; (2) explore the differences and changes in these strategies across time periods, countries, populations, delivery methods, and senders; and (3) serve as a valuable reference for future researchers and practitioners to improve the effectiveness of digital health interventions.

Overexpression of the general transcription factor OsTFIIB5 alters rice development and seed quality.

Plant Cell Rep

January 2025

Interdisciplinary Centre for Plant Genomics and Department of Plant Molecular Biology, University of Delhi, South Campus (UDSC), Benito Juarez Marg, New Delhi, 110021, India.

Overexpression of general transcription factor OsTFIIB5 in rice affects seedling growth, plant height, flowering time, panicle architecture, and seed protein/starch levels and involves modulation of expression of associated genes. TFIIB, a key general transcription factor (GTF), plays a critical role in pre-initiation complex (PIC) formation and facilitates RNA polymerase II-mediated transcription. In humans and yeast, TFIIB is encoded by a single gene; however, in plants it is encoded by a multigene family whose products may perform specialized transcriptional functions.

Boreal forests are heading for an open state.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A

January 2025

Environmental Sciences Department, Wageningen University & Research, Wageningen 6708 PB, The Netherlands.

The boreal forest biome is warming four times faster than the global average. Changes so far are moderate, but time lags in responses may transiently maintain forest states which are no longer supported by current environmental conditions. Here, we explore whether tree cover dynamics hint at the state to which the biome may be shifting.

Problem: Despite the significance of the perinatal period, postnatal care remains insufficient for optimising long-term health.

Background: The perinatal period is a vulnerable time in a woman's life-course health trajectory. Supporting transitions from hospital to primary care is essential to promote health and guide evidence-based follow-up care.
