Crispr fine-tuning unlocks vitamin C-rich potatoes without yield loss
3+ day, 9+ hour ago (238+ words) eurekalert.org A schematic diagram illustrating the changes in Vc content mediated by CRISPR/Cas9-based genome editing of the uorf-StGGP1-A/B. Potatoes are a staple food worldwide, yet boosting their vitamin C content through conventional breeding has proved exceptionally difficult....
Spiraea genome reveals how Rosaceae evolved a key defense hormone
3+ day, 11+ hour ago (347+ words) eurekalert.org A chromosome-level genome of Chinese spiraea reveals how the rose family conserved and remodeled a major route for producing salicylic acid, a hormone central to plant immunity and environmental stress responses. By combining genome assembly, comparative genomics, transcriptome…...
BhSUN coordinates calcium signaling, microtubule organization, and hormone metabolism to drive directional fruit growth in wax gourd
3+ day, 12+ hour ago (238+ words) eurekalert.org Proposed model for BhSUN-mediated regulation of fruit shape in wax gourd. Fruit shape determines market value in wax gourd (Benincasa hispida), but the genetic programs that make some fruits long and cylindrical while others turn out short and…...
A missing link in medicinal plant hormone signaling
4+ day, 9+ hour ago (253+ words) EurekAlert! SmMYB32 interacts with SmPYL8 to regulate the biosynthesis of tanshinones. Tanshinones—the bioactive compounds responsible for the cardiovascular benefits of the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Salvia miltiorrhiza—accumulate at relatively low levels in the plant, limiting their therapeutic and commercial potential....
Worm’s radical transformation shows metamorphosis can change the functions of cells
4+ day, 19+ hour ago (498+ words) A squishy worm that starts its life as something of a floating head in the Pacific Ocean is changing what scientists know about metamorphosis at the cellular level. Instead, a Stanford-led study has found strong evidence in an acorn worm…...

Even ancient bacteria possessed intercellular communication structures like humans today
1+ week, 5+ day ago (504+ words) Communication between cells in plants, animals and humans takes place via specialised connecting structures. An international team led by biologists from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) and involving the University of Tübingen has now discovered how the regulation of very…...

Open-source PAMP enables high-resolution morphological profiling throughout the fungal life cycle and uncovers quantitative relationships between fungal architecture and fermentation performance
2+ week, 4+ day ago (476+ words) EurekAlert! Schematic overview of PAMP, an open-source automated pipeline for life-cycle-resolved morphological profiling of filamentous fungi. PAMP performs automated image recognition and quantitative analysis across spore germination, hyphal growth, and pellet formation, enabling high-resolution characterization of fungal architecture and revealing…...
KAIST Develops Core Technology to Reverse Biological Changes Once Thought Irreversible, Opening New Possibilities for Aging and Cancer Research
3+ week, 1+ day ago (140+ words) [Figure 1] The ROOT framework for identifying and controlling the cause of irreversible cell-state transitions Professor Kwang-Hyun Cho's research team used a logic-based molecular regulatory network to identify the core circuits that sustain irreversible state transitions (the irreversibility kernel), and developed…...
