Summary: Late blight, caused by Phytophthora infestans, is a devastating disease in potato-producing regions. Cultivation of resistant varieties and identification of germplasms with late blight resistance are effective ways to control the disease. A diverse population of 189 genotypes was screened for resistance, revealing broad-spectrum and isolate-specific resistant resources. Genetic analysis found abundant variation, with differentiation among populations and potential for gene improvement in breeding programs. Results provide valuable information for cultivar improvement and resistance gene mining.

Summary: The genetic diversity of chickpea was studied through SDS-PAGE analysis of seed storage proteins. A total of 44 polymorphic protein bands were identified, with globulins being the most abundant and glutelins being the least abundant. Serum proteins were suggested as markers for chickpea breeding. Cluster analysis showed that Pakistani genotypes were separate from the rest.

Summary: This study investigated the genetic structure and relationships of 195 blueberry accessions using SNP markers generated from GBS data. The results revealed three major clusters of blueberry accessions, with V. boreale and V. darrowii, as well as V. myrsinites and V. tenellum, showing close genetic relationships. In addition, migration events and genetic divergence among blueberry species were identified through gene flow and admixture analysis.

Summary: The experiment showed that application of sodium nitroprusside improved thermo-tolerance of strawberry plants by inducing antioxidant system, up-regulating heat stress genes, and alleviating heat-induced oxidative damage. These results suggest that NO has a potential protective effect against heat stress in plants by modulating antioxidant pathways and gene expression related to heat stress.

Summary: This study found that the enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidants, as well as proline content, increased with the severity of stress in two Perovskia species. On the 7th day of stress, the enzymatic antioxidant activities significantly increased. Additionally, P. atriplicifolia may be better pre-adapted to water deficit physiological tolerance than P. abrotanoides.

Summary: Improving flower yield in saffron is a major goal in breeding, and one way to achieve this is by using plant growth regulators such as methyl jasmonate and 6-benzyl amino purine. These hormones regulate the expression of flowering-related genes and affect the activity of antioxidant enzymes and nutrient content. This study found that treatments with methyl jasmonate and 6-benzyl amino purine resulted in changes in gene expression and enzyme activity, suggesting their significant role in the transition from vegetative to reproductive phase in saffron.
