Characterizing the impact of CPSF30 gene disruption on TuMV infection in .

CPSF30, a key polyadenylation factor, also serves as an mA reader, playing a crucial role in determining RNA fate post-transcription. While its homologs mammals are known to be vital for viral replication and immune evasion, the full scope of CPSF30 in plant, particular in viral regulation, remains less explored. Our study demonstrates that CPSF30 significantly facilitates the infection of turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) in , as evidenced by infection experiments on the engineered mutant.

Evaluating a worldwide wheat collection for resistance to Hessian fly biotype 'Great Plains'.

Hessian fly (HF), , is a major insect pest that causes severe losses in grain yield and quality of wheat (). Growing resistant cultivars is the most cost-effective approach to minimize wheat yield losses caused by HF. In this study, 2,496 wheat accessions were screened for resistance to the HF biotype 'Great Plains' (GP) in the greenhouse experiments.

Innovations in functional genomics and molecular breeding of pea: exploring advances and opportunities.

The garden pea ( L.) is a significant cool-season legume, serving as crucial food sources, animal feed, and industrial raw materials. The advancement of functional genomics over the past two decades has provided substantial theoretical foundations and progress to pea breeding.

PsNRT2.3 interacts with PsNAR to promote high-affinity nitrate uptake in pea (Pisum sativum L.).

Nitrate, the primary form of nitrogen absorbed by plants, supplies essential compounds for plant growth and development. Peas are frequently used as rotation crops to improve and stabilize soil fertility. However, the determinants of nitrate uptake and transport in peas remain largely unclear, primarily due to the pea genome's complexity and size.
