Study on Araceae plants transitioning to freshwater environments reveals increased substitution rates and positive selection in genes related to tissue development and defense responses. Submerged plants are linked to cellular respiration and photosynthesis, while floating plants prioritize gene expression regulation. This research opens doors for future studies on angiosperms' adaptation to aquatic environments.
Researchers identified and studied the genome-scale of the PP2C gene family in ginger. Understanding these genes can provide insight into plant growth, development, signaling pathways, and responses to stresses.
Scientists studied how plants adapt to their local environments and predicted how they would respond to climate change. This information is crucial for understanding and managing the effects of climate change on plant species.
Studied 30 chilli genotypes in different planting systems to identify high-yielding and stable varieties. Genotypes G26 and G30 yield stable, while G16, G22, and G30 have stable fruit numbers. HydroStock and BioHydrogel planting systems performed well, valuable for breeding and improving agriculture. (166 characters)
This study identified and classified 79 PvMADS genes in P. vulgaris, with type I and type II classes. Type II genes have the K domain and duplications led to their expansion. PvMADS genes are also important in response to drought stress.
Researchers identified a genetic trait (QPm.NOBAL-3A) in Nordic and Baltic spring wheat that provides strong resistance against powdery mildew. This finding can aid in sustainable crop protection and breeding efforts to develop wheat varieties with durable resistance against the disease. Markers have also been developed for use in breeding programs.
