Wild relatives of beans retain useful drought resistance
A new study of wild crop relatives of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) finds they retain useful adaptations to drought stress.
The meiotic behaviour of doubled-diploid and the origin of triploid limes
Lime is the only Citrus horticultural group including natural polyploid cultivars (C. latifolia and C. aurantiifolia) in addition to diploid species. Rouiss et al. uses cytogenetic analysis and molecular marker...

Brachypodium peroxidase and drought tolerance
The peroxidase (POD) family shows functional diversity. Luo et al. demonstrate that Brachypodium distachyon ecotypes have distinct specific POD isozymes. Two POD genes are closely associated with whole-plant response to...
A genetic linkage map of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) based on GBS
Genetic linkage maps remain very important tools for gene discovery in many plant species. Whilst several genetic maps exist for perennial ryegrass, it has been difficult to integrate data across studies because of a...
Past climate change and population structure of Miscanthus
Miscanthus ornamental cultivars originate almost exclusively from southern Japan, & many marketed as M. sinensis have hybrid ancestry from M. sacchariflorus
Variation of genes responsible for maturity loci in soybean
This study's results suggest the existence of unidentified genes for flowering in soybean.
