Recent advances in the genomics of polyploid species answer some of the long-standing
questions about the role of polyploidy in crop species. Here, we summarize the current …

Understanding plant sex chromosomes involves studying interactions between
developmental and physiological genetics, genome evolution, and evolutionary ecology. We …

Sex chromosome evolution is thought to be tightly associated with the acquisition and
maintenance of sexual dimorphisms. Plant sex chromosomes have evolved independently …

How do separate sexes originate and evolve? Plants provide many opportunities to address
this question as they have diverse mating systems and separate sexes (dioecy) that evolved …

Plants have evolved sex chromosomes independently in many lineages, and loss of
separate sexes can also occur. In this study, we assembled a monoecious recently …

Actinidia arguta, the most widely distributed Actinidia species and the second cultivated
species in the genus, can be distinguished from the currently cultivated Actinidia chinensis …

Deep neural network (DNN) techniques, as an advanced machine learning framework, have
allowed various image diagnoses in plants, which often achieve better prediction …

Trichosanthes kirilowii Maxim.(TK) is a dioecious plant in the Cucurbitaceae family of which
different sexes have separate medicinal uses. We used Illumina high-throughput …

Sex chromosomes have evolved independently many times across eukaryotes. Despite a
considerable body of literature on sex chromosome evolution, the causes and …

Cytokinins have vital effects on various plant development-related processes. Type-A
response regulators (RRs) are among the most important regulators in the cytokinin …
