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...
Predicting plant responses to global warming is essential for ecosystem management and crop yields. As many genes are controlled by the circadian clock, understanding the effects of temperature on transcriptomic rhythmicity under natural conditions i...
Although the evolutionarily younger nitrogen-fixing symbioses (NFS) occurring between plants and rhizobia are predominantly confined to legume species, they exhibit a series of highly conserved characteristics in common with the more ancestral arbusc...
Linking genotype and phenotype is a fundamental challenge in biology. In this respect, machine learning is playing a pivotal role in systems biology. As central phenotypic traits, fruit development and relative growth rate (RGR) result from interacti...
Plants have evolved diverse adaptive mechanisms to sense and respond to environmental stimuli such as cadmium stress. The regulation of gene expression plays a critical role in plant responses to abiotic stress. However, homologous genes from differe...

Grape fruit shape is a crucial agricultural trait that significantly impacts the commercial value of grapes. In this study, we developed a machine learning system to classify grape fruit shapes, offering an objective phenotypic assessment method. Mul...
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...
