Summary: Significant heterosis has been documented in Brassica juncea L., where male sterility induced by the herbicide tribenuron-methyl (TBM) has been shown to effectively increase pollen sterility and inhibit seed yield, making it a practical chemical hybridization agent in B. juncea breeding programs.

Summary: Rapeseed is the third leading source of edible oil in the world, with genic male sterility lines playing a crucial role in harnessing heterosis for its hybrid production. Research on the pollen development in these GMS lines of rapeseed is limited, but studies have shown that abnormal development may occur at different stages. Through transcriptome analysis, numerous genes related to GMS have been identified, including key genes potentially involved in fertility regulation.

Summary: The newly developed tribenuronmethyl (TM) loaded microemulsion shows promising potential for controlling wheat weed growth, with high entrapment and loading efficiency of TM in the microemulsion system. The microemulsions provide controlled and sustained release of TM, leading to reduced environmental impact.

Summary: The 8029AB line is a dominant genic male sterility (DGMS) two-type line in Brassica napus L., which can be used in a three-line approach for the seed production of rapeseed hybrids. Genetic analyses have shown that the sterility of 8029A is controlled by a single dominant nuclear gene interacting with one recessive gene. This study designed six pairs of markers to identify and validate the two genes, and successfully identified two pairs of markers that could effectively distinguish different genotypes.

Summary: The study investigated the stress effect of three post-emergence herbicides on wheat at the molecular cell level. Results showed that the herbicides induced new protein bands with varying molecular weights and relative mobility, suggesting potential use as biochemical markers for plant defense genes. The combination treatment of pinoxaden and tribenuron-methyl at a recommended dose yielded the best results in terms of inducing a large number of protein bands compared to the control treatment.

Summary: Hybrid breeding is important for meeting the challenge of feeding a growing world population with limited agricultural land. There have been significant advancements in soybean genome and genetic studies, but commercialization of hybrid soybean is still in progress. This review summarizes recent progress in male sterility-based breeding programs and the current status of hybrid soybean breeding. Efforts have been made to identify male-sterile lines in soybean and over 40 hybrid soybean varieties have been developed. Increasing the out-crossing rate in an economical way is crucial for accelerating hybrid soybean breeding.

Summary: Sea Island cotton, the highest quality cultivated cotton, suffers from a significant yield decrease due to glyphosate-induced pollen abortion. This study investigated the mechanism behind this phenomenon using CP4-EPSPS transgenic sea island cotton Xinchang 5. The researchers found that the key period of anther abortion after glyphosate treatment was during tetrad formation and development, specifically in 8-9 mm buds. Transcriptome sequencing analysis revealed the enrichment of differentially expressed genes in phytohormone-related pathways, particularly in abscisic acid response and regulation pathways. Furthermore, a candidate gene, GbTCP14, was identified as significantly upregulated in buds treated with 15 g/L glyphosate.

Summary: This study investigated the regulatory mechanism of male fertility in PTGMS rice and found that critical genes and metabolites in the metabolism of sugar, lipid, and phenylpropanoid play essential roles in male fertility formation. These findings provide important insights for addressing the negative effects of environmental variation on two-line hybrid rice production.

Summary: This study conducted comparative transcriptome analysis on heat-induced male sterile anthers in wheat, revealing differences in cytological characteristics and identification of 9601 differentially expressed genes. These DEGs were associated with pathways such as starch and sucrose metabolism, phosphatidylinositol signaling, peroxidase activity, oxidative stress response, and heme binding. This comprehensive analysis provides insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying heat-induced male sterility in wheat.

Summary: Tribenuron-methyl is used for weed control in millet fields, but it has negative impacts on soil ecology. Brassinosteroids, known for enhancing plant resistance to stress, have limited information on their remediation effects on pesticide-contaminated soils. This study explored the effects of brassinosteroids on tribenuron-methyl residues, soil enzyme activity, soil microbiol community, and millet yield under field conditions.

Summary: Herbicides can reduce the negative effects of weeds but may impact the metabolism of crops. The study found that herbicides decreased protein and lipid concentrations in wheat shoots but increased carbohydrate concentration. Different herbicide combinations had varying effects on different wheat cultivars, with some combinations enhancing protein and lipid concentrations in certain cultivars.

Summary: Microbial decomposition and chemical hydrolysis are the primary processes for degrading sulfonylurea herbicides in soil and water. This study investigated the effects of different nutrition sources on the biodegradation of tribenuron-methyl by Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis. The results showed that E. coli was more effective in tribenuron-methyl decontamination than B. subtilis, and there was a positive relationship between herbicide degradation and COD removal.
