Background: Sulfur (S) is a vital element for the normal growth and development of plants, performing crucial biological functions in various life processes.
Methods: This study investigated thirteen S utilization efficiency (SUE)-related traits at the seedling stage of wheat using a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population. The quantitative trait loci (QTLs) were mapped by genetic mapping. Thirteen S utilization efficiency-related traits were investigated under two hydroponic culture trials with low S (0.1S, T1), moderate S (0.5S, T2), and high S (1.5S, T3) levels, using the wheat RILs.
Results: A total of 170 QTLs for the thirteen traits in different treatment environments were identified. Among them, 89, 103, and 101 QTLs were found in T1, T2, and T3, respectively. A total of 63 QTLs were found in the multiple treatment environments, the other 107 QTLs only being detected in a single treatment environment. Among them, thirteen relatively high-frequency QTLs (RHF-QTLs) and eleven QTL clusters were found. Five (, , , , and ) and six (, , , , , and ) RHF-QTLs were identified in QTL clusters C3 and C10, respectively.
Conclusion: These thirteen RHF-QTLs and eleven QTL clusters are expected to apply to the molecular marker-assisted selection (MAS) of wheat.

Background: Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tartaricum) is particularly vulnerable to pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) due to its extended flowering and fruiting cycle, especially during periods of prolonged rainfall. This susceptibility has significant adverse effects on yield, quality and post-harvest processing. In this study, a recombinant inbred lines (RILs) population (XJ-RILs) was developed from a cross between the PHS-susceptible Tartary buckwheat variety 'Xiaomiqiao' (female parent) and the highly PHS-resistant variety 'Jinqiaomai 2' (male parent).

Powdery mildew, caused by the fungus , is one of the primary causes of grape yield loss across the globe. While numerous resistance loci have been identified in various grapevine species, the genetic determinants of susceptibility to remain largely unexplored. Understanding the genetics of susceptibility for pathogenesis is equally important for developing durable resistance grapevines against this pathogen.

Rice yield strongly depends on panicle size and architecture but the genetics underlying these traits and their coordination with environmental cues through various signaling pathways have remained elusive. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed to pinpoint the underlying genetic determinants for rice panicle architecture by analyzing 20 panicle-related traits using a data set consisting of 44,100 SNPs. We defined QTL windows around significant SNPs by the rate of LD decay for each chromosome and used these windows to identify putative candidate genes associated with the trait.
