This study identifies a deletion in the ASN3 gene associated with reduced free asparagine in maize kernels, providing a target for breeding and genome-editing to lower acrylamide formation.

The paper constructs a transcriptomic atlas of grass senescence to identify molecular mechanisms of nitrogen recycling, finding divergent underground sink networks in annual crops.

The paper compares cold-responsive proteomes across five PACMAD grasses to assess conservation of protein-level responses and identifies LEA3 as a key cold-tolerant protein.

This study investigates how azetidine 2-carboxylic acid (Aze), a proline analog, inhibits plant root growth by misincorporation into proteins, leading to unfolded protein response and growth reduction.

GWAS identified benzoxazinless3 in the benzoxazinoid biosynthesis pathway to play a role in boron homeostasis in maize.

The paper uses genomic prediction to identify biological processes influencing free amino acid traits in Arabidopsis seeds, revealing new trait-pathway associations and improving predictive ability for specific amino acids.

HAPPI GWAS is a tool that automates pre-GWAS, GWAS, and post-GWAS analysis, addressing gaps in existing pipelines by including outlier removal, BLUP/BLUE calculation, and haploblock analysis.
