Abstract Rapeseed is a significant global source of plant oil. Silique size, particularly silique length (SL), impacts rapeseed yield. SL is a typical quantitative trait controlled by multiple genes. In our previous study, we constructed a DH population of 178 families known as the 158A-SGDH population. In this study, through SL QTL mapping, we identified twenty-six QTL for SL across five replicates

Novel allelic variations in Tannin1 and Tannin2 contribute to tannin absence in sorghum Mol. Breed. (IF 3.1) Pub Date : 2024-03-16
Abstract Sorghum is an important food crop commonly used for brewing, feed, and bioenergy. Certain genotypes of sorghum contain high concentrations of condensed tannins in seeds, which are beneficial, such as protecting grains from herbivore bird pests, but also impair grain quality and digestibility. Previously, we identified Tannin1 and Tannin2, each with three recessive causal alleles, regulate

Abstract Nonapomictic citrus tetraploids are desirable in citrus breeding for the production of triploid, seedless varieties, and polyploid rootstocks. However, only a few lines have been reported, and they were all generated using chemical methods. A 2x + 4 × cytochimera of the nonapomictic citrus variety ‘Orah’ mandarin, which developed from a bud mutant, was found due to its morphology differing

Abstract Cold shock domain proteins (CSPs), initially identified in Escherichia coli, have been demonstrated to play a positive role in cold resistance. Previous studies in wheat, rice, and Arabidopsis have indicated the functional conservation of CSPs in cold resistance between bacteria and higher plants. However, the biological functions of PbrCSPs in pear pollen tubes, which represent the fragile
