“…The Climate Security workshop, organized as part of the CGIAR’s initiative Building Systemic Resilience against Climate Extremes and Variability (ClimBeR) and co-hosted by the African Group of Negotiators Experts Support (AGNES), brought together actors involved with either climate and security issues in Senegal, and more broadly in the Sahel, to discuss Senegal's security architecture and its relationship with climate. The aim of the workshop was to inform national and sub-national policies and investments to build agricultural resilience and foster climate-resilient peace. …”

Applications of in vitro tissue culture technologies in breeding and genetic improvement of wheat by Wijerathna-Yapa, Akila, Ramtekey, Vinita, Ranawaka, Buddhini, Basnet, Bhoja Raj

“…As a result, several useful genes are now available that have been transferred or would be helpful to be transferred to wheat in addition to the current traditional effort to improve trait values, such as resistance to abiotic and biotic factors, grain quality, and plant architecture. Furthermore, the in planta genome editing method will significantly contribute to the social implementation of genome-edited crops to innovate the breeding pipeline and leverage unique climate adaptations.…”

An epigenetic pathway in rice connects genetic variation to anaerobic germination and seedling establishment by Castano-Duque, Lina, Ghosal, Sharmistha, Quilloy, Fergie A., Mitchell-Olds, Thomas, Dixit, Shalabh

“…To identify the genetic architecture of complex traits, we quantified percentage anaerobic germination (AG) in 2,700 (wet-season) and 1,500 (dry-season) sequenced rice genotypes and performed genome-wide association studies (GWAS) using 693,502 single nucleotide polymorphisms. …”

A review on crop losses, epidemiology and disease management of rice brown spot to identify research priorities and knowledge gaps by Barnwal, M.K., Kotasthane, A., Magculia, N., Mukherjee, P.K., Savary, S., Sharma, A.K., Singh, H.B., Singh, U.S., Sparks, A.H., Variar, M., Zaidi, N.

“…In this review we identify several of these gaps, which if filled, could lead to a strong impact on the management of brown spot. We also use the architecture of a simulation model to position and prioritize these knowledge gaps, assess the epidemiological consequences of disease management options on BS monocyclic processes and explore the impact changing production situations on this important disease.…”

Gene expression analysis in citrus reveals the role of gibberellins on photosynthesis and stress by Huerta, Laura, Forment, Javier, Gadea, Jose, Fagoaga, Carmen, Pena, Leandro, Pérez-Amador, Miguel A., García-Martínez, José Luis

“…Expression of other genes belonging to functional groups not reported previously to be regulated by GA (mainly abiotic and biotic stresses, and cuticle biosynthesis), and genes involved in cell division and cell wall architecture were also differentially expressed. Culture of citrus explants for 24 h in GA(3) solution produced much lower changes in the transcriptome compared with CcGA20ox plants (1.6% versus 16%, respectively, of total genes in the microarray), suggesting that most of the changes observed in CcGA20ox plants were a consequence of a long-standing GA effect. …”
