Strain 53B2 was isolated from a commercial maize (Zea mays L.) field located in the Yaqui Valley, Mexico. Its draft genome comprises 5,844,085 bp, with a G + C content of 37.5%, an N50 of 602,122 bp, an L50 of 4, and a total of 129 contigs. Genome-ba...

Mulberry (Morus spp.), as an economically significant crop in sericulture and medicinal applications, faces severe threats to leaf yield and quality from pest and disease infestations. Traditional detection methods relying on chemical pesticides and...

Species characterized by undetermined clade affiliations, limited research coverage, and deficient systematic investigation serve as enigmatic entities in plant and animal taxonomy, yet hold critical significance for exploring phylogenetic relationsh...

Cotton is the most widely cultivated natural fiber crop worldwide, yet it is highly susceptible to various diseases and pests that significantly compromise both yield and quality. To enable rapid and accurate diagnosis of cotton diseases and pests&md...

Caffeic acid-O-methyltransferase (COMT) is a key enzyme in lignin synthesis and secondary metabolism in plants, and it participates in the regulation of plant growth and development as well as plants’ stress response. To further investigate the...

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) functions as a signaling molecule that triggers physiological and biochemical adjustments that help plants cope with environmental stress. This study evaluated the effects of foliar application of 1.5 mM H2O2 on the physiolog...

As a globally important cash crop, the optimization of tomato yield and quality is strategically significant for food security and sustainable agricultural development. In order to address the problem of missing point cloud data on fruits in a facili...

Developing early-heading wheat cultivars is an important breeding strategy to utilize light and heat resources, facilitate multiple-cropping systems, and enhance annual grain yield. Psathyrostachys huashanica Keng (2n = 2x = 14, NsNs) possesses numer...

Brassinosteroids (BRs) play an essential role in regulating plant metabolic pathways that influence growth, development, and stress responses. However, their role in alleviating cobalt (Co) stress has not been extensively studied. This research aimed...

Pancreatic cancer cells exhibit a remarkable ability to tolerate nutrient deprivation, a phenomenon termed “austerity,” which enables their survival within the hypovascular tumor microenvironment. Conventional anticancer therapies frequen...
