Abstract Pigmented rice ( Oryza sativa L.) is a rich source of nutrients, but pigmented lines typically have long life cycles and limited productivity. Here we generated genome assemblies 5 varieties evaluated the genetic variation among 51 by resequencing an additional 46 varieties. Phylogenetic analyses divided into four varietal groups: Geng-japonica , Xian-indica circum- Aus Basmati. Metabolomics ionomics profiling revealed that black are in aromatic secondary metabolites. We established...
Background: Amaranth (Amaranthus spp.) has high nutritional quality, with edible grain and leaves, many agronomic advantages, making it a promising part of the solution for global food insecurity. However, we lack comprehensive metabolomic genome sequence data cultivars. To support improvement this versatile, sustainable crop, detailed metabolome profiling grains leaves sequencing resources is required widely cultivated amaranth cultivars such as Coral Fountain (CF), Emerald Tassels (ET),...
Sustainable agriculture requires locally adapted varieties that produce nutritious food with limited agricultural inputs. Genome engineering represents a viable approach to develop cultivars fulfill these criteria. For example, the red Hassawi rice, native landrace of Saudi Arabia, tolerates local drought and high-salinity conditions produces grain diverse health-promoting phytochemicals. However, has long growth cycle, high cultivation costs, low productivity, susceptibility lodging. Here,...
