AbstractBranching is a key determinant of plant architecture, directly influencing growth, yield, and resource allocation. High temperature (HT) inhibits plant growth and development, often leading to alterations in plant architecture. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying temperature-induced…

Reno, Nevada, The Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology & Biotechnology at the University of Nevada, Reno invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position from candidates conducting cutting-edge, biotechnology-focused research. We seek exceptional scientists whose work…

Cairo, Egypt, Company Description: Founded in 1919, AUC moved to a new 270-acre state-of-the-art campus in New Cairo in 2008. The University also operates in its historic downtown facilities, offering cultural events, graduate classes, and continuing education. Student housing is available in New…

AbstractPeanut is a major global economic crop with its seeds rich in oil and unsaturated fatty acids. However, the genes expression network of seeds development on single-cell resolution is unclear, here we conducted single-nucleus RNA-seq (snRNA-seq) on peanut seeds, classifying 35,082 single-cells…

AbstractFruit size and shape, which influence horticultural quality, are determined by the number and the size of the cells in the local region. In fruit trees, however, the difficulty of applying molecular genetic approaches has hindered a detailed understanding of the localization and orientation of…

AbstractSorghum (Sorghum bicolor), a C4 grass adapted to hot semi-arid environments, depends on reinforced xylem vessels to maintain hydraulic conductance under high evaporative demand. During xylem differentiation, coordinated microtubule and actin dynamics guide secondary cell wall (SCW) deposition;…

AbstractBotrytis cinerea is a globally destructive plant pathogen that threatens major agricultural crops. Although biocontrol agents are widely used against this fungus, their inconsistent efficacy reflects a limited mechanistic understanding, hindering the development of effective disease management…

AbstractFlowering is a key ornamental trait in chrysanthemum and a major agronomic trait affecting rice yield. Strigolactones (SLs) are a class of phytohormones that regulate diverse aspects of plant growth and development, including flowering time. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying SL-mediated…
