Editing Cassava Sweet genes for Resistance to Xanthomonas Report
The sweet genes are transporters and a source of sucrose for plants, which during infection by bacteria such as Xanthomonas are over-expressed, making them an important factor in the infection and colonization of this type ...
Evidence for genotypic differences among elite lines of common bean in the ability to remobilize photosynthate to increase yield under drought
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most important food legume for human consumption. Drought stress is the major abiotic stress limitation of bean yields in smallholder farming systems worldwide. The current work ...
