Cell walls in crops and trees have been engineered for production of biofuels and
commodity chemicals, but engineered varieties often fail multi-year field trials and are not …

A large-scale metabolic quantitative trait loci (mQTL) analysis was performed on the well-
characterized Solanum pennellii introgression lines to investigate the genomic regions …

Metabolomics is an indispensable part of modern systems biotechnology, applied in the
diseases' diagnosis, pharmacological mechanism, and quality monitoring of crops …

Vitamin E (VTE) content is a low heritability nutritional trait for which the genetic
determinants are poorly understood. Here, we focus on a previously detected major tomato …

Cell wall turnover and modification in its composition are key factors during stone fruit
development and patterning. Changes in cell wall disassembly and reassembly are …

Soil salinization is a common environmental problem that seriously affects the yield and
quality of crops. Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), one of the main sugar crops in the world …

Plant metabolites are important to world food security due to their roles in crop yield and
nutritional quality. Here we report the metabolic profile of 300 tomato accessions (Solanum …

Genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) in plants typically suffer from limited statistical
power. An alternative to the logistical and cost challenge of increasing sample sizes is to …

Direct-seeding rapeseed production at high plant density raises the risk of lodging. We
investigated the use of dwarf genes to improve rapeseed plant architecture to balance yield …

To identify genomic regions involved in the regulation of fundamental physiological
processes such as photosynthesis and respiration, a population of Solanum pennellii …
