Genome-wide characterization of cytochrome P450 genes in Solanum tuberosum and StCYP481 role in salt tolerance.

BMC plant biology | 2026-Apr-20

This study performs a genome-wide identification and characterization of the Cytochrome P450 (CYP) gene family in Solanum tuberosum. It specifically investigates the functional role of the StCYP481 gene in enhancing salt tolerance, providing insights for potato genetic improvement against abiotic stress.

Optimized TadA-derived base editors efficiently manipulate mRNA splicing by A-to-G and C-to-K editing in potato.

Journal of integrative plant biology | 2026-Apr-20

Researchers developed and optimized two TadA-derived base editors, RTF-ABE8e and RTF-TadDE, specifically for efficient mRNA splice site editing in potato. These tools allow for the precise manipulation of splicing isoforms and the creation of mutant phenotypes, providing powerful new resources for potato functional genomics.
