Pearl millet is an important cereal crop worldwide and shows superior heat tolerance. Here, we developed a graph-based pan-genome by assembling ten chromosomal genomes with one existing assembly adapted to different climates captured 424,085 genomic structural variations (SVs). Comparative genomics transcriptomics analyses revealed the expansion of RWP-RK transcription factor family involvement endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-related genes in The overexpression gene led enhanced plant tolerance...
Common oat (Avena sativa) is an important cereal crop serving as a valuable source of forage and human food. Although reference genomes many crops have been generated, such work in has lagged behind, primarily owing to its large, repeat-rich polyploid genome. Here, using Oxford Nanopore ultralong sequencing Hi-C technologies, we generated reference-quality genome assembly hulless common oat, comprising 21 pseudomolecules with total length 10.76 Gb contig N50 75.27 Mb. We also produced...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) act as a group of signaling molecules in rice functioning regulation development and stress responses. Respiratory burst oxidase homologues (Rbohs) are key enzymes generation ROS. However, the role nine Rboh family members was not fully understood multiple disease resistance yield traits. In this study, we constructed mutants each genes detected their requirement Our results revealed that mutations five (RbohA, RbohB, RbohE, RbohH, RbohI) lead to compromised...
It is recognized that human activities, such as fossil fuel burning, land-use change, and forest harvesting at a large scale, have resulted in the increase of greenhouse gases atmosphere since onset industrial revolution. The increasing amounts gases, particularly CO 2 atmosphere, believed to induced climate change global warming. With ability remove from through photosynthesis, forests play critical role carbon cycle sequestration both local scales. necessary understand relationship between...
Since the 1970s, a long-term research project has been conducted to monitor changes in primary productivity of Chinese fir plantation at Huitong Ecosystem Research Station, Hunan, China. Standing biomass and net (NPP) were investigated four times (7, 11, 14 18 years old) two successive rotations on same site. The mean individual tree stand second rotation reduced by ∼18, 17, 7 3 per cent 7-, 11-, 14- 18-year-old stands, respectively, compared with first rotation. In rotation, annual NPP was...
Genome analysis of 27 oat species identifies ancestral groups, delineates the D genome, and origin 21 mapped chromosomes in hexaploid oat. We investigated genomic relationships among genus Avena using high-density genetic markers revealed by genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS). Two methods GBS were used: one based on tag-level haplotypes that previously cultivated (A. sativa), intended to sample enumerate originating from all under investigation. Qualitatively, both gave similar predictions...
Genome size is an indicator of evolutionary distance and a metric for genome characterization. Here, we report accurate estimates in 99 accessions from 26 species Avena. We demonstrate that the average C diploid (2C = 10.26 pg) 15% larger than A 8.95 pg), this difference likely accounts progression among tetraploid species, where AB < AC CC (average 2C 16.76, 18.60, 21.78 pg, respectively). All three hexaploid with ACD configuration had similar sizes 25.74 pg). was mostly consistent within...
ABSTRACT Microbial necromass nitrogen (MNN) is increasingly recognized as a major source of soil N, playing crucial role in N sequestration and sustaining balance. However, quantitative data on the contribution MNN to total its relationship with multifunctionality (SMF) karst plantation ecosystems remain lacking. In this study, (measured via amino sugar analysis) SMF (calculated using mean value method) were determined across five plantations unafforested land (control) Wuling Mountains...
Agroforest systems have been widely recognized as an integrated approach to sustainable land use for addressing the climate change problem because of their greater potential sequester atmospheric CO2 with multiple economic and ecological benefits. However, nature extent effects age-sequence agroforestry on carbon (C) storage remain largely unknown. To reveal influence different aged poplar-crop C stocks, we investigated variation in biomass under four agroforest (3-, 9-, 13-, 17-year-old)...
In order to explore the influences of rice straw mulching on soil fertility in agroforestry systems, C and N contents enzyme activities were investigated a C. oleifera-cassia intercropping ecosystem Central Southern China. Three application treatments set up this study, 2021, namely, powder (SPM), segment (SSM), non-straw as control (CK). Soil samples collected from three depths (0-10 cm,10-20 cm, 20-40 cm) each treatment 90th-day after treatments. The organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen...
Tibetan semiwild wheat ( Triticum aestivum ssp. tibetanum Shao) is a primitive hexaploid resource found in Tibet. It characterized by tolerance to nutrition deficiency and strong seed dormancy has potential be useful breeding programs. To tap the advantages of breeding, we investigated nine agronomic traits including heading date (HD), anthesis (AD), plant height (PHT), tiller number (TN), spike length (SL), spikelet per (SNS), density (DS), grain weight (GWS), 1000‐grain (TGW) 186...
Nitrogen (N) is an essential macronutrient for plant function and growth a key component of amino acids, which form the building blocks proteins enzymes. However, misuse overuse N can have many negative impacts on ecosystem, such as reducing soil exchangeable base cations (BCs) causing acidification. In this research, we evaluated clonal Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata (Lamb.) Hook) seedlings grown with exponentially increasing fertilization (0, 0.5, 1, 2 g seedling−1) 100-day trial in...
Understanding nutrient quantity and quality in forest soils is important for sustainable management of resources maintaining ecosystem services. In this study, six soil indicators, including organic matter (SOM), total nitrogen (TN), phosphorus (TP), available (AN), (AP), potassium (AK) were measured five different aged stands Chinese fir forests subtropical China. A structural equation model (SEM) was developed based on these nutrients indicators order to better evaluate the fertility index...
Vegetation is the most vulnerable component of terrestrial ecosystems to climate change. In recent decades, there has been a significant warming and humidification trend in Tibetan Plateau. It crucial study analyze impact these changes on ecosystem their future trends for protecting Plateau’s ecosystem. This collected analyzed (temperature, precipitation) data vegetation index (the normalized difference (NDVI) leaf area (LAI)), as well from significance tests combined with Mann–Kendall Sen’s...
The molecular diversity of the rDNA sequences (5S units) in 71 accessions from 26 taxa Avena was evaluated. analyses, based on 553 sequenced clones, indicated that there were 6 unit classes, named according to haplomes (genomes) they putatively represent, namely long A1, B1, M1, short C1, D1, and M1 classes. classes found tetraploid A. macrostachya , only perennial species. class closely related C1 class, while A1 B1 However, D1 more divergent other There one per haplome Avena, whereas...
Abstract Much of Chinese animal husbandry relies on the continuous availability forage crops, but climactic constraints in production regions cause seasonal shortages which threaten industry. This study compares major characteristics different oat lines and cultivars to evaluate their suitability for cultivation winter fallow fields southwest China. To achieve this goal, six populations (2 4 lines) were sown autumn three locations Yield‐related traits such as dry matter yield (DMY) plant...
Ribosomal ITS sequences are commonly used for phylogenetic reconstruction because they included in rDNA repeats, and these repeats often undergo rapid concerted evolution within between arrays. Therefore, the copies appear to be virtually identical can sometimes treated as a single gene. In this paper we examined polymorphism among 13 diploid (A C genomes), seven tetraploid (AB, AC CC genomes) four hexaploid (ACD genome) infer extent direction of evolution, reveal genome relationship species...
The dynamic properties of rainfall interception were investigated at three growth stages in Chinese fir plantations. results showed that the annual ratio was significantly higher mature stands than young stands. For a storm event, amount increased with increasing rainfall, but decreased. In contrast to dry season conditions, high wet seasons, while low. rates change extremely rapid small events. There little stemflow forests due pyramid-shaped crowns and thick rough bark trees. power model...
