ABSTRACT Drought is a major threat to alfalfa ( Medicago sativa L.) production. The discovery of important genes regulating drought response will facilitate breeding for drought‐resistant cultivars. Here, we report genome‐wide association study resistance in alfalfa. We identified and functionally characterized an MYB‐like transcription factor gene MsMYBH ), which increases the Compared with wild‐types, biomass forage quality were enhanced overexpressed plants.

A new powdery mildew resistance gene designated Pm21, from Haynaldia villosa, a relative of wheat, has been identified and incorporated into wheat through an alien translocation line. Cytogenetic biochemical analyses showed that chromosome arms 6VS 6AL were involved in this translocation. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was performed on recipient cultivar Yangmai 5, the line, H. villosa with 180 random primers. Eight primers same results obtained four replications....

Melilotus species are used as green manure and rotation crops worldwide contain abundant pharmacologically active coumarins. However, there is a paucity of information on its genome coumarin production function. Here, we reported chromosome-scale assembly albus with 1.04 Gb in eight chromosomes, containing 71.42% repetitive elements. Long terminal repeat retrotransposon bursts coincided declining population sizes during the Quaternary glaciation. Resequencing 94 accessions enabled insights...

Forage nutritive value impacts animal nutrition, which underpins livestock productivity, reproduction and health. Genetic improvement for traits in perennial ryegrass has been limited, as they are typically expensive time-consuming to measure through conventional methods. Genomic selection is appropriate such complex traits, enabling cost-effective prediction of breeding values using genome-wide markers. The aims the present study were assess potential genomic a range multi-population...
