TL;DR: It is suggested that OsERF71 plays a positive role in drought stress tolerance by increasing the expression of genes associated with ABA signaling and proline biosynthesis under stress.

TL;DR: Genomic selection based on the widespread conventional selection with the use of information of the molecular markers will facilitate breeding programmes by providing effective achievement of biotic stress resistance reducing in mean time generation interval and investments in ecological-friendly crop production is reviewed.

TL;DR: An insight is provided on the structure, genomic organization, mechanisms involved in regulation of the expression, transposition, and evolution of the most widely distributed LTR retrotransposons in plants and especially within the Triticeae tribe and discusses both their contributions to plant genome evolution and their use as genetic tools in plant biology.

TL;DR: The response of tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum L.)--non-transformed and transformed with a metallothionein gene MThis from Silene vulgaris L.--to increase cadmium supply in the nutrient solution was compared, with transgenic plants accumulated significantly more Cd both in the roots and the leaves.

TL;DR: The evaluation of small fruit genetic resources for the presence of bioactive compounds and their properties as natural agents is of doubtless significance and will be with great benefit for breeders, food and pharmaceutical industry.
