Localization of salt-tolerant QTL in rice germination stage under different salinity concentrations

Yanning Wang et al.

Summary: This study aimed to identify the quantitative trait loci (QTL) related to salt tolerance in rice, focusing on traits such as root length, bud length, and survival percent under different salinity conditions. Through the use of chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) derived from the varieties Nipponbare and 9311, a total of 18 QTLs were identified, with 13 of them being detected under salt stress conditions. These QTLs were classified into two categories, based on their expression under control and salt stress conditions. Furthermore, several QTLs were reported for the first time to be associated with salt stress in rice. The identification of these QTLs under salt stress conditions provides valuable genetic factors for improving salt tolerance in rice through the use of molecular marker technology, and contributes to a better understanding of the genetic mechanism underlying salt tolerance in rice.

GRAS transcription factors emerging regulator in plants growth, development, and multiple stresses

Muhammad Waseem et al.

Summary: GRAS transcription factors play multifunctional roles in plant growth, development, and stress responses. They are involved in important developmental processes such as flowering and root formation, and interact with hormone signaling. However, there is a lack of comprehensive reviews on the features and roles of GRAS transcription factors in plants.

QTL Analysis and Heterosis Loci of Effective Tiller Using Three Genetic Populations Derived from Indica Japonica Crosses in Rice

Xiaoxiao Deng et al.

Summary: This study investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying the heterosis of panicle numbers (PNs) and tiller numbers (TNs) in rice by detecting quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and heterosis-related loci. Multiple QTLs and genes related to PN and TN heterosis were identified, providing new insights into the heterosis mechanism of PN and TN in rice.

QTL Mapping for Grain Zinc and Iron Concentrations in Bread Wheat

Yue Wang et al.

Summary: This study identified multiple QTL for grain zinc (GZn) and grain iron (GFe) concentrations in wheat, highlighting the significant effects of line x environment interaction on the variation. The high heritabilities of GZn and GFe suggest the potential for genetic improvement through bio-fortification breeding. Conversion of SNP markers to high-throughput KASP markers provides valuable tools for marker-assisted selection in breeding programs.

Utilization of a Sugarcane100K Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Microarray-Derived High-Density Genetic Map in Quantitative Trait Loci Mapping and Function Role Prediction of Genes Related to Chlorophyll Content in Sugarcane

Guilong Lu et al.

Summary: Chlorophyll content trait was explored in this study to improve sugarcane yield. The trait was significantly and positively correlated with Fv/Fm during elongation phase, as well as with plant height, stalk diameter, and brix during maturity phase. QTL mapping identified 31 loci, with one major QTL accounting for 12.95% of phenotypic variation explained. Twenty candidate genes related to chlorophyll content were identified, providing a theoretical reference for analyzing the genetic mechanism of chlorophyll synthesis in sugarcane.

Map overlapping of QTL for resistance to Fusarium ear rot and associated traits in maize

Gerardo Mario Giomi et al.

Summary: By mapping QTL for disease resistance in maize hybrids, researchers identified key genomic regions that may contribute to disease resistance by increasing pericarp thickness and content of trans-ferulic acid (tFA). The joint models explained a significant portion of phenotypic variability for disease severity, pericarp thickness, and pericarp content of tFA, with the most important QTL overlapping in a specific genomic region.

Sugarcane Ratooning Ability: Research Status, Shortcomings, and Prospects

Fu Xu et al.

Summary: Sugarcane ratooning ability is crucial in determining production costs and benefits, with research focusing on limited genotypes and few studies evaluating a larger number of germplasm resources. The key factors influencing ratooning productivity and longevity include genotype, environment, and cultivation techniques. Optimizing technical methods for breeding sugarcane with strong ratooning ability is essential for enhancing efficiency and reducing costs.
