Abstract The molecular mechanisms underlying anthocyanin-based flower coloration remain unknown in Brassica napus. To identify the key genes and metabolites associated with apricot pink colors, metabolome, BSA-seq, RNA-seq analyses were conducted on apricot-, pink-, yellow-, white-flowered F2B. Yellow carotenoids red anthocyanins abundant petals, while colorless accumulated petals. Most carotenoid not differentially regulated between yellow or white Three regulator genes, BnaMYBL2,...
Brassica napus is currently cultivated as an important ornamental crop in China. Flower color has attracted much attention rapeseed genetics and breeding. Here, we characterize orange-flowered mutant of B. that exhibits altered carotenoid profile its petals. As revealed by map-based cloning, the change from yellow to orange attributed loss BnaC09.ZEP (zeaxanthin epoxidase) a 1695-bp deletion BnaA09.ZEP. HPLC analysis, genetic complementation CRISPR/Cas9 experiments demonstrated BnaA09.ZEP...
Plant architecture involves important agronomic traits affecting crop yield, resistance to lodging, and fitness for mechanical harvesting in Brassica napus. Breeding high-yield varieties with plant suitable is the main goal of rapeseed breeders. Here, we report an accession B. napus (4942C-5), which has a dwarf compact contrast cultivated varieties. A BC8 population was constructed by crossing normal line, 8008, recurrent parent 4942C-5. To investigate molecular mechanisms underlying...
Members of the Malvaceae family, including Corchorus spp., Gossypium Bombax and Ceiba are important sources natural fibers. In past decade, genomes several species have been assembled; however, evolutionary history differences in their fiber development remain to be clarified. Here, we report genome assembly annotation two plants from Malvaceae, ceiba pentandra, whose assembled sizes 783.56 Mb 1575.47 Mb, respectively. Comparative analysis revealed that whole-genome duplication Gypsy long...
Aroma is important in assessing the quality of fresh fruit and their processed products, could provide good indicators for development local cultivars mango industry. In this study, volatile diversity 25 from China, America, Thailand, India, Cuba, Indonesia, Philippines was investigated. The compositions, relative contents, intervarietal differences were detected with headspace solid phase microextraction tandem gas chromatography-mass spectrometer methods. similarities also evaluated a...
Flavonoids are important secondary metabolites in plants and light is a crucial environmental factor regulating flavonoids biosynthesis. However, effect of on the different compositions accumulation mango relevant molecular mechanism still need to be clarified.In this study, green-mature fruits red cultivar 'Zill' were subjected postharvest treatment, fruit peel color, total soluble solids content, organic acid, firmness flesh measured. The profile, expression flavonoids-related genes signal...
This study investigated the optimal strategies for improving sugar biosynthesis in mango fruits. Randomized block design was used experimental treatments. The cultivar “Renong-1” sprayed with five green plant growth regulators, including solutions of SBP (sucrose-based polymers, a new highly efficient and eco-friendly regulator), SPM (sucrose + potassium dihydrogen phosphate microelement fertilizer), TPM (taurine fertilize), PFA (potassium fulvic acid), SOP (seaweed oligosaccharide peptide)...
Controlled-release blended fertilizer (CRBF) and densification can increase rice yield nitrogen (N) efficiency. However, the effects of CRBF combined with on yield, N absorption, economic benefits fertilization, ammonia volatilization loss remain unclear. A 2-year field experiment was conducted using five treatments: no (control, CK), conventional application (farmer's fertilization practice, FFP), optimal (OPT), single basal (CRBF), (CRFDP). Moreover, absorption use efficiency, benefit,...
Excessive nitrogen application is a common phenomenon in rice production China, which will lead to low utilization rate and increase farmers’ costs. In Jingzhou, Hubei Province, for two consecutive years (2021, 2022), was planted with nursery-box total fertilization (NBTF) technology provide technical support seedling box contact technology. The results showed that, compared the conventional treatment, emergence decreased by 7.70–11.87%, but quality significantly improved plant height...
Abstract Mango (Mangifera indica L.) has been widely cultivated as a culturally and economically significant fruit tree for roughly 4000 years. Despite its rich history, little is known about the crop’s domestication, genomic variation, genetic loci underlying agronomic traits. This study employs whole-genome re-sequencing of 224 mango accessions sourced from 22 countries, with an average sequencing depth 16.37×, to explore their variation diversity. Through phylogenomic analysis, M. himalis...
The rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is a widely cultivated crop in tropical acidic soil that tolerant to high concentration of aluminum and the aluminum-activated malate transporter (ALMT) plays an important role plant detoxification. However, effects ALMT on tolerance, growth performance, latex production are unclear. In this study, 17 HbALMT genes were identified from genome trees. physiological biochemical characteristics, phylogenetic relationships, gene structures, conserved motifs,...
Despite abundant published research on the volatile characterization of mango germplasm, aroma differentiation Chinese cultivars remains unclear. Using headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) coupled with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS), composition and relative content volatiles in 37 representing diversity germplasm were investigated. Results indicated that there are distinct differences components compounds among within cultivars. In total, 114 compounds, including 23...
Mango (2 n = 2 x 40) is an important tropical/subtropical evergreen fruit tree grown worldwide and yields nutritionally rich high-value fruits. Here, a high-quality mango genome (396 Mb, contig N50 1.03 Mb) was assembled using the cultivar “Irwin” from Florida, USA. A total of 97.19% sequences were anchored to 20 chromosomes, including 36,756 protein-coding genes. We compared β-carotene content, in two different cultivars (“Irwin” “Baixiangya”) growth periods. The variation content mainly...
Internal flesh breakdown (IFB), a serious physiological disorder of mango fruit, causes significant economic losses in Southwest China. We investigated the extent IFB 100 orchards and how changes mineral nutrients fruit flesh, leaves soil affect IFB. found that 76% showed symptoms, average incidence was 10%. Fruit with higher contents N, P, K Mg, lower Ca content ratios N/Ca, K/Ca Mg/Ca. The from symptoms exhibited remarkable increase N Mg contents. No difference observed nutrient...
Inheritable albino mutants are excellent models for exploring the mechanism of chloroplast biogenesis and development. However, only a few non-lethal mutations have been reported to date in Brassica species. Here, we describe resynthesized napus mutant, whose leaf, stem, silique tissues showed an inheritable phenotype under field conditions after bud stage but green greenhouse during whole growing season, indicating that depends on environmental conditions. Compared with leaves field-grown...
