Using weedy traits in crops as part of a new green revolution Crop production faces major challenges, including climate change, biodiversity loss, and global food insecurity, with the need to produce more food under increasingly difficult climatic conditions wi....

🌱 What if the scrappy traits we try to weed out… are exactly what crops need to survive?
“weedy” traits like drought & pest resistance could power a new Green Revolution 🌎🌾💪

The complex polyploid genome architecture of sugarcane - Nature We build a polyploid reference genome for hybrid sugarcane cultivar R570, improving on its current ‘mosaic monoploid’ representation, enabling fine-grain description of genome architecture and the exp...

"As a result, chromosomes may be highly heterozygous, translocated, inherited purely from progenitor genomes, aneuploid, interspecific recombinant or entirely identical-by-descent to another chromosome. These processes result in a diverse and complex hybrid sugarcane genome."
