TL;DR: In this paper, a corn-derived darkness response GD2 gene, a protein encoded by the same and application of the gene, was provided for plant molecular breeding, which can solve the problems of low efficiency and long period of traditional breeding.
Abstract: The invention provides a corn-derived darkness response GD2 gene, a protein encoded by the same and application of the gene. The sequence of the darkness response GD2 gene is shown as SEQ ID NO. 1. The gene is transferred into other plants to obtain a transgenic plant, and the growth and flowering of the plant can be promoted. The darkness response GD2 gene provided by the invention is a new genefor promoting the flowering of the plant, can be used for plant molecular breeding, and can solve the problems of low efficiency and long period of traditional breeding.

TL;DR: In this paper, a diagnostic molecular marker has been proposed for detecting wheat powdery mildew resistant gene Pm2a and application thereof, and solves the problem that wheat breeding has difficulties in accurate detection and in effective utilization of powdery-mildew-resilient gene Pn2a.
Abstract: The invention relates to the field of phytogenetics and wheat molecular breeding, in particular to a diagnostic molecular marker for detecting wheat powdery mildew resistant gene Pm2a and applicationthereof, and solves the problem that wheat breeding has difficulties in accurate detection and in effective utilization of powdery mildew resistant gene Pm2a. The diagnostic molecular marker has nucleotide sequences of SXAC-M-F: 5'-GGTTTGAATCCAAGAGATGATGCATATTTGAT-3', and SXAC-M-R: 5'-TAAGTGGTAATAGCTCAATCTGAGAACCTT-3'. An identifying method includes: 1, preparing a PCR (polymerase chain reaction)system; 2, performing PCR amplification; 3, detecting a PCR amplification product; 4, analyzing and identifying whether a specific band of 219 bp can be amplified to judge whether wheat powdery mildewresistant gene Pm2a exists. The diagnostic molecular marker and the application thereof have the advantages that identifying whether wheat Pm2a gene is present and predicting powdery mildew resistance can be accurately performed, and utilization of the wheat powdery mildew resistant gene Pm2a is quickened.
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors present an updated picture of the advancements of drought tolerance in maize and its future prospects, which can assist future researchers to adopt a potential breeding tool for breeding drought-tolerant maize cultivars.
Abstract: As a most significant cereal crop, maize provides vital nutritional components to humans and livestock. Drought stress curtails maize growth and yield by impairing several morphological, physiological, and biochemical functions. The rising threats of drought stress significantly affect global food security and increase the ratio of hunger and starvation. The use of molecular breeding techniques has enabled maize researchers to deeply examine the genetic control of drought tolerance and the genetic differences between genotypes to drought stress. Despite the significant progress in molecular genetics, the drought tolerance mechanism is still not fully understood. With the advancements in molecular research, researchers have identified several molecular factors associated with maize tolerance to drought stress. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping and genome-wide association study (GWAS) analysis have led to identifying QTL, and genes linked to drought tolerance in maize that can be further exploited for their possible breeding applications. Transcriptome and transcription factors (TFs) analysis has revealed the documentation of potential genes and protein groups that might be linked to drought tolerance and accelerate the drought breeding program. Genetic engineering has been used to develop transgenic maize cultivars that are resistant to drought stress. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR/Cas9) is a new ray of hope to edit the gene of interest to enhance drought tolerance in maize and save both time and cost in cultivar development. In the current review article, we have tried to present an updated picture of the advancements of drought tolerance in maize and its future prospects. These organized pieces of information can assist future researchers in understanding the basis of drought tolerance to adopt a potential breeding tool for breeding drought-tolerant maize cultivars.
