Accurate annotation of plant genomes remains complex due to the presence of many pseudogenes arising from whole-genome duplication-generated redundancy or the capture and movement of gene fragments by transposable elements. Machine learning on genome...
Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) is a forage and amenity grass species widely cultivated in temperate regions worldwide. As such, perennial ryegrass populations are exposed to a range of environmental conditions and stresses on a seasonal basis an...
Agave, monocotyledonous succulent plants, is endemic to arid regions of North America, exhibiting exceptional tolerance to their xeric environments. They employ various strategies to overcome environmental constraints, such as crassulacean acid metab...

In this study, the tetrad stage of microspore development in a new cotton ( L.) cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) line, H276A, was identified using paraffin sections at the abortion stage. To explore the molecular mechanism underlying CMS in cotton, a...
Understanding how plants adapt their physiology to overcome severe and often multifactorial stress conditions in nature is vital in light of the climate crisis. This remains a challenge given the complex nature of the underlying molecular mechanisms....
Systems biology aims to uncover gene regulatory networks (GRNs) for agricultural traits, but validating them in crops is challenging. We addressed this challenge by learning and validating model-to-crop transcription factor (TF) regulons governing ni...
Evolution by natural selection occurs at its most basic through the change in frequencies of alleles; connecting those genomic targets to phenotypic selection is an important goal for evolutionary biology in the genomics era. The relative abundance o...
Epigenetic changes serve as a cellular memory for cumulative cold recognition in both herbaceous and tree species, including bud dormancy. However, most studies have discussed predicted chromatin structure with respect to histone marks. In the presen...
In the evolutionary history of plants, variation in cis-regulatory elements (CREs) resulting in diversification of gene expression has played a central role in driving the evolution of lineage-specific traits. However, it is difficult to predict expr...
