This study identifies HS1, a grass-specific myosin VIII, as critical for protoxylem development and hydraulic conductance in sorghum, linking actin-based motor activity to xylem structure and function.

This study integrates lipidomics with GWAS in sorghum to identify genetic loci associated with grain oil content and composition, revealing new insights into lipid metabolism and its genetic regulation.

This study integrates metabolomics and genomics in sorghum to uncover the genetic basis of metabolic diversity, identifying millions of SNP-metabolite associations and gene clusters.

This study constructs high-quality sorghum genome assemblies and identifies structural variations and resistance genes associated with sugarcane aphid resistance.

BSAseq identifies causal mutations in bulked F2 populations using a probabilistic model and interactive web tool.

The paper develops a tool for haplotype phasing and expression analysis in maize using single-molecule long-read sequencing, revealing allele-specific and imprinted gene expression.

The paper constructs the third generation Zea mays haplotype map using whole genome sequencing data from 1,218 maize lines, identifying 83 million variant sites.

The paper improves the maize reference genome using single molecule technologies, resulting in longer contigs and better annotation of repetitive elements and genes.
