The stage of seed development influences iron bioavailability in pea (Pisum s...
Pea seeds are widely consumed in their immature form, known as garden peas and petit pois, mostly after preservation by freezing or canning. Mature dry peas are rich in iron in... -
Spatiotemporal expression patterns of wheat amino acid transporters reveal th...
Amino acid transporters have roles in amino acid uptake from soil, long-distance transport, remobilization from vegetative tissues and accumulation in grain. Critically, the... -
Exploring traditional aus-type rice for metabolites conferring drought tolerance
Background Traditional varieties and landraces belonging to the aus-type group of rice (Oryza sativa L.) are known to be highly tolerant to environmental stresses, such as... -
Inter-genome comparison of the Quorn fungus Fusarium venenatum and the closel...
The soil dwelling saprotrophic non-pathogenic fungus Fusarium venenatum, routinely used in the commercial fermentation industry, is phylogenetically closely related to the... -

Towards FAIRer Biological Knowledge Networks Using a Hybrid Linked Data and G...
Abstract The speed and accuracy of new scientific discoveries – be it by humans or artificial intelligence – depends on the quality of the underlying data and on the technology... -
Exploring the resilience of wheat crops grown in short rotations through mini...
Given the increasing demand for wheat which is forecast, cropping of wheat in short rotations will likely remain a common practice. However, in temperate wheat growing regions... -
Potential for re-emergence of wheat stem rust in the United Kingdom
Wheat stem rust, a devastating disease of wheat and barley caused by the fungal pathogen Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici, was largely eradicated in Western Europe during the... -
Phosphopantetheinyl transferase (Ppt)-mediated biosynthesis of lysine, but no...
Zymoseptoria tritici is the causal agent of Septoria tritici blotch (STB) disease of wheat. Z. tritici is an apoplastic fungal pathogen, which does not penetrate plant cells at... -
Beyond the one-way ANOVA for ’omics data
With ever increasing accessibility to high throughput technologies, more complex treatment structures can be assessed in a variety of ’omics applications. This adds an extra... -
Diverging importance of drought stress for maize and winter wheat in Europe
Understanding the drivers of yield levels under climate change is required to support adaptation planning and respond to changing production risks. This study uses an ensemble...
