Over the past decade, genomics-assisted breeding (GAB) has been instrumental in
harnessing the potential of modern genome resources and characterizing and exploiting …

Breeding crop plants with increased yield potential and improved tolerance to stressful
environments is critical for global food security. Drought stress (DS) adversely affects …

Crop production systems need to expand their outputs sustainably to feed a burgeoning
human population. Advances in genome sequencing technologies combined with efficient …

Plant genomes are so highly diverse that a substantial proportion of genomic sequences are
not shared among individuals. The variable DNA sequences, along with the conserved core …

The mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway is an important signalling event
associated with every aspect of plant growth, development, yield, abiotic and biotic stress …

Warming and drought are reducing global crop production with a potential to substantially
worsen global malnutrition. As with the green revolution in the last century, plant genetics …

Studying the genetics of adaptation to new environments in ecologically and industrially
important tree species is currently a major research line in the fields of plant science and …

Alongside the use of fertilizer and chemical control of weeds, pests, and diseases modern
