Article Synopsis
- * Metabolomics is a valuable research tool that analyzes the metabolic changes in maize when affected by FAW, helping identify specific metabolites that play a role in the plant's defense.
- * The review emphasizes the potential of using metabolomics data to inform pest management strategies and develop maize varieties that are more resistant to FAW, while also calling for more integrated research methods to improve global food security.
Marker-assisted introgression to improve the oleic acid content in the TMV 7 groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) variety suitable for the oil industry.

Background: Improving the quality and shelf life of groundnut oil is one of the foremost objectives of groundnut breeding programmes. This can be achieved by marker-assisted introgression, a technique that efficiently and precisely enables breeders to develop plants with enhanced qualities. This study focused on improving the oleic acid content of an elite groundnut variety, TMV 7, by introgressing a recessive mutation responsible for the increase in oleic acid from ICG 15419.
