GWAS identifies candidate genes affecting water absorption in foxtail millet seeds
Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) is a major cereal crop cultivated in the arid and semi-arid regions of northern China. However, achieving uniform emergence poses a significant challenge in foxtail millet cultiva...

Trash to treasure: lactate and protein lactylation in maize root impacts response to drought
Lactate, protein lactylation (Kla), and specifically histone lactylation have recently been shown to regulate antipathogenic immune responses in mammals. Herein, after we confirmed the presence and accumulatio...

Open AccessComparative analysis of mitochondrial genomes of maize CMS-S subtypes provides new insights into male sterility stability
Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is a trait of economic importance in the production of hybrid seeds. In CMS-S maize, exerted anthers appear frequently in florets of field-grown female populations where only c...

Diversity of endophytic bacteria in hybrid maize seeds and Bacillus mojavensis J2416-7 may be capable of vertical transmission
The diversity of endophytic bacteria in the progeny is related to the parental lines. In this study, the traditional separation method was used to study the dominant endophytic bacteria of the shared paternal ...

Open AccessTarget-oriented prioritization: targeted selection strategy by integrating organismal and molecular traits through predictive analytics in breeding
Genomic prediction in crop breeding is hindered by modeling on limited phenotypic traits. We propose an integrative multi-trait breeding strategy via machine learning algorithm, target-oriented prioritization ...

Open AccessThe genetic mechanism of heterosis utilization in maize improvement
In maize hybrid breeding, complementary pools of parental lines with reshuffled genetic variants are established for superior hybrid performance. To comprehensively decipher the genetics of heterosis, we prese...

Open AccessStalk architecture, cell wall composition, and QTL underlying high stalk flexibility for improved lodging resistance in maize
Stalk fracture caused by strong wind can severely reduce yields in maize. Stalks with higher stiffness and flexibility will exhibit stronger lodging resistance. However, stalk flexibility is rarely studied in ...

Open AccessStability SCAD: a powerful approach to detect interactions in large-scale genomic study
Evidence suggests that common complex diseases may be partially due to SNP-SNP interactions, but such detection is yet to be fully established in a high-dimensional small-sample (small-n-large-p) study. A numb...

PU-H71 effectively induces degradation of IκB kinase β in the presence of TNF-α
This study is to determine if PU-H71, a heat shock protein inhibitor, induces killing of malignant breast cells together with treatment of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). The related molecular mechanisms were...
