VigExp provides a validated platform for visualizing cowpea gene expression across cell types and developmental stages, aiding in crop improvement.

The paper shows that expressing VuBBML1 in both egg and central cells of cowpea, along with central cell fertilization, enables parthenogenesis and viable haploid seed formation.

The paper analyzes codon usage bias in WRKY genes of Musa acuminata to understand evolutionary patterns and resistance mechanisms.

This study evaluates the growth and carbon sequestration potential of Pongamia pinnata in sub-tropical environments, showing rapid biomass production and high carbon storage even in nutrient-poor soils.

The paper develops new integrative vectors for Agrobacterium rhizogenes transformation, improving efficiency and enabling functional analysis of soybean GmTML gene family members.
