Genome-wide structural and gene content variations are hypothesized to drive important
phenotypic variation within a species. Structural and gene content variations were assessed …

Chile peppers, native to the Americas, have spread around the world and have been integrated
into the diets of many cultures. Much like their heat content, nutritional content can vary …

This article attempts to summarize the current knowledge on plant domestication on the
basis of recent genome sequencing. To this end, several topics are explored, including (a) …

Importance Preferential delivery of docetaxel to tumors by prostate-specific membrane antigen
(PSMA)–targeted nanoparticles is clinically effective, and the selective reduction of PSMA-…

Background The safety of mutagenized and genetically transformed plants remains a subject
of scrutiny. Data gathered and communicated on the phenotypic and molecular variation …

Fast neutron radiation has been used as a mutagen to develop extensive mutant collections.
However, the genome-wide structural consequences of fast neutron radiation are not well …

Soybean (Glycine max) is the most widely grown oilseed in the world and is an important
source of protein for both humans and livestock. Soybean is widely adapted to both temperate …

Natural populations across a species range demonstrate population structure owing to neutral
processes such as localized origins of mutations and migration limitations. Selection also …

Gene structural variation (SV) has recently emerged as a key genetic mechanism underlying
several important phenotypic traits in crop species. We screened a panel of 41 soybean (…

Assessment of gene function oftentimes requires mutant populations that can be screened by
forward or reverse genetic analysis. The situation becomes more complicated in polyploidy …
