The control of prickle formation in Rubus
UncategorizedAbstractPrickles on blackberry and raspberry canes make pruning, harvesting, and handling more difficult and can increase labor costs for growers. The trait has been challenging to improve in these clonal crops because it is recessive and linked to undesirable agronomic traits. In blackberry and red…
Epigenetic regulation and transcriptional divergence underpin lignification in rapidly growing Moso bamboo
UncategorizedAbstractMoso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) is characterized by its unparalleled rapid growth (up to 114.5 cm d−1) and concurrent lignification; however, the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms orchestrating this process remain largely unexplored. Here, we integrated RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, and DAP-seq analyses…
