Antagonistic SnRK2 and PID kinases' action on auxin transport–mediated root gravitropism Open
Plants have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to adapt to environmental changes, with root gravitropism playing a pivotal role in nutrient and water acquisition. Our study reveals that SnRK2 kinases (SnRK2.2 and SnRK2.3) are critical regula…

TAC-C uncovers open chromatin interaction in crops and SPL-mediated photosynthesis regulation Open
Cis-regulatory elements (CREs) direct precise gene expression for development and environmental response, yet their spatial organization in crops is largely unknown. We introduce transposase-accessible chromosome conformation capture (TAC-…

Deciphering the Transcriptional Regulatory Network Governing Starch and Storage Protein Biosynthesis in Wheat for Breeding Improvement Open
Starch and seed storage protein (SSP) composition profoundly impact wheat grain yield and quality. To unveil regulatory mechanisms governing their biosynthesis, transcriptome, and epigenome profiling is conducted across key endosperm devel…

A k-mer-based pangenome approach for cataloging seed-storage-protein genes in wheat to facilitate genotype-to-phenotype prediction and improvement of end-use quality Open
Wheat is a staple food for more than 35% of the world's population, with wheat flour used to make hundreds of baked goods. Superior end-use quality is a major breeding target; however, improving it is especially time-consuming and expensiv…

Type I MADS‐box transcription factor TaMADS‐GS regulates grain size by stabilizing cytokinin signalling during endosperm cellularization in wheat Open
Summary Grain size is one of the important traits in wheat breeding programs aimed at improving yield, and cytokinins, mainly involved in cell division, have a positive impact on grain size. Here, we identified a novel wheat gene TaMADS‐GS…

A comprehensive atlas of long non-coding RNAs provides insight into grain development in wheat Open
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are key regulators of many biological processes, but our knowledge of lncRNAs associated with wheat (Triticum aestivum) grain development is limited. Here, to generate a comprehensive atlas of lncRNAs in whea…

Multi-Omics Analysis Reveals a Regulatory Network of ZmCCT During Maize Resistance to Gibberella Stalk Rot at the Early Stage Open
Gibberella stalk rot (GSR) caused by Fusarium graminearum is one of the most devastating diseases in maize; however, the regulatory mechanism of resistance to GSR remains largely unknown. We performed a comparative multi-omics analysis to …

<i>FRIZZY PANICLE</i> defines a regulatory hub for simultaneously controlling spikelet formation and awn elongation in bread wheat Open
Summary Grain yield in bread wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) is largely determined by inflorescence architecture. Zang734 is an endemic Tibetan wheat variety that exhibits a rare triple spikelet (TRS) phenotype with significantly increased s…
