Ancient Wheat Genomes Illuminate Domestication, Dispersal, and Diversity
Ancient DNA (aDNA) promises to revolutionise our understanding of crop evolution. Wheat has been a major crop for millennia and has a particularly... -
From acidity to sweetness: a comprehensive review of carbon accumulation in grape berries
Most of the carbon found in fruits at harvest is imported by the phloem. Imported carbon provide the material needed for the accumulation of sugars,...
