📢Only in #JSE!
APG V, the 5th community-based classification of flowering #plants, is now available!
This revision of the APG #classification marks a shift from mainly #plastid-based classification to nuclear-#genome-informed #systematics.

Fragrant Wheat is Here! 🌾🍿 Lanqin Xia (CAAS) & Yan Guo (CAU) Teams Publish in JIPB (2026)!
Targeted mutagenesis of TaBADH1 & TaBADH2 creates transgene-free fragrant wheat with up to an 11.24-fold boost in 2-AP! 🎯📦
Key Technological Breakthroughs:
🍿 11.24-Fold 2-AP Surge: Double knockouts (TaBADH1-aabbdd / TaBADH2-aabbDD) elevated grain 2-AP from 3.80 μg/kg to 42.70 μg/kg, conferring a distinct popcorn-like aroma.
🧬 Asymmetric Gene Redundancy: Discovered that TaBADH1 (Chr 2) plays a dominant role over TaBADH2 (Chr 6) in wheat 2-AP biosynthesis—a novel regulatory pattern distinct from rice, soybean, and tomato.
🧫 Gametophytic Transmission Barrier Uncovered: Identified male gametophyte transmission failure for triple-knockout abd TaBADH2 alleles, establishing subgenome-specific editing parameters.
🌾 Zero Yield Penalty: Field trials confirmed that transgene-free fragrant lines maintained wild-type tillering, grains per spike, thousand-grain weight (TGW), and per-plant yield.
A major milestone in quality trait bioengineering for staple cereal crops! 🚀🌟
