Down-regulation of Fra a 1.02 in strawberry fruits causes transcriptomic and metabolic changes compatible with an altered defense response
HORTICULTURE RESEARCH, 8(1).
TL;DR:
Gene ontology (GO) analysis of the genes differentially expressed indicated that oxidation/reduction was the most represented biological process and redox state was not apparently altered since no changes were found in ascorbic acid and glutathione reduced/oxidized ratio, but GSH content was reduced in the silenced fruits.

Whole genome comparisons reveal panmixia among fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) from diverse locations
BMC GENOMICS, 22(1).
author keywords: Fall armyworm; Spodoptera fruigperda; F-st; Genome wide diversity; Panmixia; Corn; rice host strains
MeSH headings : Animals; Brazil; Gene Flow; Humans; Kenya; Spodoptera; Zea mays / genetics
TL;DR:
Comparisons at the genomic level suggest a panmictic S. frugiperda population, with only a minor reduction in gene flow between the two overwintering populations in the continental USA, also corresponding to distinct host strains at the mitochondrial level.

Dysbiosis of fecal microbiota in cats with naturally occurring and experimentally induced Tritrichomonas foetus infection
PLOS ONE, 16(2).
MeSH headings : Animals; Cats; Disease Models, Animal; Dysbiosis / complications; Feces / microbiology; Mice; Microbiota; Protozoan Infections / complications; Protozoan Infections / microbiology; Tritrichomonas foetus / physiology
TL;DR:
It is hypothesized that T. foetus promotes dysbiosis by competition for fermentable substrates used by these bacteria and that metabolic byproducts may contribute to the pathogenesis of colonic inflammation and diarrhea.

Discovery of a major QTL for root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) resistance in cultivated sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas)
Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 134(7), 1945–1955.
MeSH headings : Animals; Chromosome Mapping; Disease Resistance / genetics; Genetic Linkage; Genotype; Ipomoea batatas / genetics; Ipomoea batatas / parasitology; Plant Diseases / genetics; Plant Diseases / parasitology; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide; Quantitative Trait Loci; Tylenchoidea / pathogenicity
TL;DR:
A major dominant QTL for root-knot nematode (RKN) resistance is discovered using a high-density integrated genetic linkage map of hexaploid sweetpotato, which represents a significant step forward in understanding of the genetic architecture of RKN resistance and sets the stage for future utilization of genomics-assisted breeding inSweetpotato breeding programs.

Emergence patterns of winter and summer annual weeds in Ethiopian mustard (Brassica carinata) cropping system
WEED SCIENCE, 69(4), 446–453.
author keywords: Abyssinian cabbage; Brassica carinata system; crop rotation; weed emergence; weed seedbank
TL;DR:
The results showed that summer weeds can emerge during the winter in northern Florida but do not survive frost damage, which might create off-season seedbank reductions before the summer crop growing season.

Utility of Climatic Information via Combining Ability Models to Improve Genomic Prediction for Yield Within the Genomes to Fields Maize Project
FRONTIERS IN GENETICS, 11.
author keywords: genotype-by-environment interaction (G× E); Genomes to Fields (G2F) initiative; general combining ability (GCA); specific combining ability (SCA); hybrid prediction; genomic prediction
TL;DR:
Predictive ability was not improved through inclusion of naive environmental covariates in G×E models, and more research should be conducted to link the observed weather conditions with important physiological aspects in plant development to improve predictive ability through the inclusion of weather data.
