Fusarium wilt is the most destructive fungal disease, limiting flax cultivation in all main flax and linseed growing countries. The causative agent is seedbourne and soilborne fungus F. oxysporum f.sp. lini. Here, we report for the first time genome assemblies of five highly pathogenic isolates of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lini, namely monoisolate 3...
Modern flax cultivars are susceptible to many diseases; arguably, the most economically damaging of these is the Fusarium wilt fungal disease. Over the past decades international flax breeding initiatives resulted in the development of resistant cultivars. However, much remains to be learned about the mechanisms of resistance to Fusarium infection...
In this paper, we explore potential genetic factors in control of flax phenotypes associated with fiber by mining a collection of 306 flax accessions from the Federal Research Centre of the Bast Fiber Crops, Torzhok, Russia. In total, 11 traits were assessed in the course of 3 successive years. A genome-wide association study was performed for each...
The chickpea plays a significant role in global agriculture and occupies an increasing share in the human diet. The main aim of the research was to develop a model for the prediction of two chickpea productivity traits in the available dataset. Genomic data for accessions were encoded in Artificial Image Objects, and a model for the thousand-seed w...
To assess the genomic diversity of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini strains and compile a comprehensive gene repertoire, we constructed a pangenome using 13 isolates from four different clonal lineages, each exhibiting distinct levels of virulence. Syntenic analyses of two selected genomes revealed significant chromosomal rearrangements unique to eac...
A rapid growth of available amounts of genomic data has made it possible to obtain extensive results on genomic prediction and identification of associations of SNPs with phenotypic traits. In many cases, to identify new relationships between phenotypes and genotypes, it is preferable to use machine learning, deep learning and artificial intelligen...
Flowering is initiated in response to environmental cues, with the photoperiod and ambient temperature being the main ones. The regulatory pathways underlying floral transition are well studied in Arabidopsis thaliana but remain largely unknown in legumes. Here, we first applied an in silico approach to infer the regulatory inputs of four FT-like g...
Bulk segregant analysis was applied to the evaluation of F2 population developed by crossing two flax cultivars which differ in the resistance genes to Fusarium wilt. The causative agent of this disease, the fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini, is one of the main flax pathogens causing enormous economic damage to the linen industry worldwide. DNA...
Chickpea (Cicer arientinum) is an important crop grown in the Middle East, Central Asia, Turkey, India and southern Russia and used in a wide variety of traditional dishes. The decrease in genetic diversity during domestication, as well as the crop's greater sensitivity to abiotic and biotic stresses, provides the idea of using landraces in breedin...
Flowering time is the most important agronomic trait which is used in breeding and determines the crop performance. Vernalization, or prolonged exposure to cold, accelerates flowering and increases yields in many crops. The molecular mechanisms of vernalization-induced flowering are well studied in Arabidopsis thaliana, but remain largely unknown f...
A bulk segregant analysis (BSA) was used to analyze the F2 population from crossing two flax varieties that differ in fusarium wilt resistance genes. The causative agent of this disease, the fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini is one of the main pathogens of flax, causing huge economic damage to its global production. Sequencing of DNA pools of h...
Chickpea (Cicer arientinum) is an important leguminous crop, which is widely grown especially in the Near East. In wet weather conditions, the susceptibility of chickpeas to fungal diseases such as Ascochyta blight and Fusarium blight increases. Thus, selection of disease-resistant and early-ripening varieties is critically needed. The present stud...
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a major grain legume and a good source of plant-based protein. However, comprehensive knowledge of flowering time control in Cicer is lacking. In this study, we acquire high-throughput transcriptome sequencing data and analyze changes in gene expression during floral transition in the early flowering cultivar ICCV 9...
Фузариозное увядание - наиболее разрушительное грибковое заболевание, ограничивающее возделывание льна во всех основных странах, выращивающих лен. Его возбудитель - гриб Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini. В работе сообщается о сборках генома трех слабопатогенных штаммов Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini, а именно F200, F418 и F365. Геном штамма F418, сек...
Genetic diversity in a breeding program is essential to overcome modern-day environmental challenges faced by humanity and produce robust, resilient crop cultivars with improved agronomic characteristics, as well as to trace crop domestication history. Flax (Linum usitatissimum), one of the first crops domesticated by mankind, has been traditionall...
A collection of flax accessions from Russian Federal Research Center for Bast Fiber Crops was characterised to evaluate its phenotypic diversity. 406 samples representing different morphotypes were selected for thorough quantitative assessment of various agronomic traits. We measured height, length of technical part of the stem, technical part weig...
Fusarium wilt of flax is an aggressive disease caused by the soil-borne fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini. It is a challenging pathogen presenting a constant threat to flax production industry worldwide. Previously, we reported chromosome-level assemblies of 5 highly pathogenic F. oxysporum f. sp. lini strains. We sought to characteriz...
Seeds represent the major source of food protein, impacting on both human nutrition and animal feeding. Therefore, seed quality needs to be appropriately addressed in the context of viability and food safety. Indeed, long-term and inappropriate storage of seeds might result in enhancement of protein glycation, which might affect their quality and l...
Phosphatidic acids (PAs) are a key intermediate in phospholipid biosynthesis, and a central element in numerous signalling pathways. Functions of PAs are related to their fundamental role in molecular interactions within cell membranes modifying membrane bending, budding, fission and fusion. Here we tested the hypothesis that PAs are capable of dir...

In the modern world, crop plants represent a major source of daily consumed foods. Among them, cereals and legumes — i.e. the crops accumulating oils, carbohydrates and proteins in their seeds — dominate in European agriculture, tremendously impacting global protein consumption and biodiesel production. Therefore, the seeds of crop plants attract t...
Gravitropism, the directed plant growth with respect to the gravity vector, is regulated by auxin and its polar transport system, several secondary messengers, and by the cytoskeleton. Recently we have shown that the actin cytoskeleton in the root transition zone of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh was rearranged after gravistimulation (rotation by...
