Polyploidy, or whole-genome duplication (WGD), is a major mechanism of genome evolution across the tree of life and is ...

In 2000, as the consortium behind the Human Genome Project announced a “working draft” of the sequence of the human genome—an achievement celebrated with a front-page story in The New York Times and a ...

Traditionally, plant genomics has grappled with the intricacies of vast and complex datasets, often limited by the specificity of traditional machine learning models and the scarcity of annotated ...

The analysis uncovered two major whole-genome duplication (WGD) events in the plant's history—approximately 17 million and 3.3 million years ago.

Plants produce a wide diversity of compounds. Broadly, these are separated into primary metabolites, which are necessary for ...

Chinese scientists have introduced an artificial intelligence (AI) assistant specifically designed for botanical research, ...

While some scientists argue that agricultural gene editing regulations are overly restrictive, a new paper from the ...

The National Plant Genome Initiative was launched in 1998 as a long-term project to explore DNA structure and function in plants so that useful properties of plants can be understood, improved, and ...

The study claims the new TnpB-based system achieves an editing efficiency of 33.58% in an average plant genome and can target regions of the genome that are inaccessible to Cas9 or Cas12.
