Understanding soybean (Glycine max) domestication and improvement at a genetic level is important to inform future efforts further improve crop that provides the world's main source of oilseed. We detect 230 selective sweeps 162 selected copy number variants by analysis 302 resequenced wild, landrace improved accessions >11× depth. A genome-wide association study using these new sequences reveals associations between 10 regions 9 or traits, identifies 13 previously uncharacterized loci for...
Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) is one of the most important oil and protein crops. Ever-increasing soybean consumption necessitates improvement varieties for more efficient production. However, both correlations among different traits genetic interactions genes that affect a single trait pose challenge to breeding. To understand networks underlying phenotypic correlations, we collected 809 accessions worldwide phenotyped them two years at three locations 84 agronomic traits. Genome-wide...
Drought and high salinity are two major abiotic stresses that significantly affect agricultural crop productivity worldwide. Annexins a multigene family plays an essential role in plant stress responses various cellular processes. Here, the AnnSp2 gene was cloned from drought-resistant wild tomato (Solanum pennellii) functionally characterized cultivated tomato. protein localized nucleus had higher expression leave, flower fruit. It induced by several phytohormones some stresses. Tomato...
Cold-induced sweetening (CIS) in potato is detrimental to the quality of processed products. Conversion starch reducing sugars (RS) by amylases considered one main pathways CIS but not well studied. The amylase genes StAmy23, StBAM1, and StBAM9 were studied for their functions CIS. StAmy23 localized cytoplasm, whereas StBAM1 are targeted plastid stroma granules, respectively. Genetic transformation these potatoes RNA interference showed that β-amylase activity could be decreased cold-stored...
Phytophthora sojae Kaufmann and Gerdemann causes root rot, a destructive soybean disease worldwide. A basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor is thought to be involved in the response P. infection soybean, as revealed by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). However, molecular mechanism underlying this currently unclear. Here, we explored function mechanisms of bHLH designated GmPIB1 (P. sojae-inducible factor), during host responses sojae. was significantly induced resistant cultivar...
Soybean root rot disease caused by Phytophthora sojae seriously constrains soybean yield. Knocking out the susceptibility gene GmTAP1 in created new lines resistant to several P. strains and these showed no agronomic penalties field. (Glycine max) is an economically important oil-bearing crop that widely planted worldwide (Babu et al., 2017). Many diseases limit disease, one of most destructive diseases, occurs throughout growth period, resulting considerable yield losses (Kamoun 2015). (P....
Slowing down cold-induced sweetening (CIS) of potato (Solanum tuberosum) tubers is economic importance for the industry to ensure high-quality products. The conversion sucrose reducing sugars by acid invertase StvacINV1 thought be critical CIS. Identification specific inhibitor StInvInh2B and α- β-subunits interacting protein SUCROSE NONFERMENTING1-RELATED PROTEIN KINASE from wild species Solanum berthaultii (SbSnRK1) has led speculation that activity may regulated via a posttranslational...
Cold is a major environmental factor that restrains potato production. Abscisic acid (ABA) can enhance freezing tolerance in many plant species, but powerful evidence of the ABA-mediated signalling pathway related to still deficiency. In present study, cold acclimation capacity genotypes was enhanced alongside with improved endogenous content ABA. Further exogenous application ABA and its inhibitor (NDGA) could reduce tolerance, respectively. Moreover, expression pattern downstream genes...
Abstract During harvesting, storage, transportation, and processing, potato ( Solanum tuberosum L . ) tubers undergo greening after exposure to light, leading the accumulation of toxic glycoside alkaloids, resulting in quality deterioration economic losses. However, underlying mechanisms are unclear. This study compared transcriptome proteome differences among four cultivars during light-induced process, identifying 3,751 unique proteins (high confidence; ≥91.7%). The levels enzymes involved...
Summary The transition to tuberization contributes greatly the adaptability of potato a wide range environments. Phytochromes are important light receptors for growth and development plants, but detailed functions phytochromes remain unclear in potato. In this study, we first confirmed that phytochrome F ( St PHYF ) played essential roles photoperiodic By suppressing gene, strict short‐day genotype exhibited normal tuber formation under long‐day LD conditions, together with degradation...
Abscisic acid (ABA) plays crucial roles in plant development and adaption to environmental stresses. The ABA-responsive element binding protein/ABRE-binding factor ABA INSENSITIVE 5 (AREB/ABF/ABI5) gene subfamily members, which belong the basic domain/leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factors family, participate ABA-mediated signaling pathway by regulating expression of their target genes. However, information about potato (Solanum tuberosum) AREB/ABF/ABI5 members remains scarce. Here,...
The Potato virus Y (PVY) is responsible for huge economic losses the potato industry worldwide and fifth most consequential plant globally. main strategies control are to limit aphid vectors, produce virus-free seed potatoes, breed virus-resistant varieties. breeding of PVY-resistant varieties safest effective method in terms cost environmental protection. Rychc, a gene that confers extreme resistance PVY, from S. chacoense, which wild diploid species widely used many projects. In this...
Cold-induced sweetening (CIS), the undesirable sugar accumulation in cold-stored potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers, is a severe postharvest issue processing industry. Although process of sucrose hydrolysis by vacuolar invertase during CIS well understood, there limited knowledge about transportation from cytosol to vacuole cold storage. Here, we report that among three tonoplast transporters (TSTs), StTST1 exhibits highest expression tubers Subcellular localization analysis demonstrates...
Abscisic acid (ABA) is critical in drought tolerance and plant growth. Group A protein type 2C phosphatases (PP2Cs) are negative regulators of ABA signaling adaptation to stress. Knowledge about the functions potato group PP2Cs limited. Here, we report that PP2C StHAB1 broadly expressed plants strongly induced by drought. Suppression enhanced sensitivity tolerance, whereas overexpression dominant mutant StHAB1G276D compromised tolerance. interacts with almost all receptors Snf1-Related...
The HD-Zip family of plant-specific transcription factors coordinates developmental processes and abiotic stress adaptation, including drought tolerance in bioenergy crops such as physic nut. Although proteins are known regulators responses, the functional roles nut genes adaptation remain uncharacterized. In this study, we functionally characterized JcHDZ25, a drought-inducible I gene from nut, which is predominantly expressed roots upregulated by ABA drought. Subcellular localization...
Cold-induced sweetening (CIS) in potatoes is a significant challenge affecting the quality and marketability of processed potato products. This study aims to decipher regulatory mechanisms underlying CIS through integrated time-course transcriptome metabolome analysis.
