"Cold insurance" for crops: Researchers unlock "on-demand" climate resilience
08 Jun 2026Rapidly intensifying global climate instability is causing increasingly erratic temperature fluctuations. When sudden cold snaps strike during a crop's critical flowering window, they trigger irreversible pollen abortion, slashing yields of staple...

'All-in-one' platform developed for multiple trait stacking in crops
07 Jun 2026A major goal of modern crop breeding is to efficiently combine multiple desirable traits by "stacking" the favorable gene variants (alleles) that contribute to those traits in a single crop variety.

Scientists Discover a New Plant Immune Complex in Wheat
25 Mar 2026A team led by Prof. Liu Zhiyong found that a wheat immune protein, called WAI3, forms an eight-part complex that helps trigger the plant’s defenses by allowing calcium to flow into cells..

Wheat's immune system uses novel protein complex, study finds
20 Mar 2026Now, in a study published in Cell, a team has revealed a novel octameric resistosome formed by an activated wheat CCG10-NLR immune receptor, which induces Ca2+ influx and immune responses through a unique channel architecture.
