SNP-based genomic variation in candidate disease resistance genes of Theobroma cacao

Abstract Theobroma cacao is a species with high economic value whose production is impaired by multiple factors, including yield losses caused by pathogens such as Moniliophthora perniciosa , Phytophthora spp., Ceratocystis cacaofunesta , and Moniliophthora roreri . In this conte...

Expansion and Nitrate-Responsive Expression of NRT3 Transport Regulators in Maritime Pine

Nitrate uptake in plants is mediated by coordinated transporter systems, which include NPF, NRT2 and NRT3 proteins. While these families have been extensively studied in angiosperms, their evolution and regulation in conifers are still not well understood. In this work, we examin...
