The Global Plant CouncilA genomic analysis of fine aroma cocoa from northern Peru revealed genetic divergence and evolutionary patterns within Theobroma cacao. The study identified 3 distinct genetic groups and estimated divergence times, suggesting that fine aroma cocoa diversified during the Pleistocene. The findings offer insights into cacao's genetic structure and could aid in breeding and conservation efforts.<a href="https://globalplantcouncil.org/mapping-maternal-lineages-of-fine-aroma-cocoa-through-chloroplast-dna/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://globalplantcouncil.org/mapping-maternal-lineages-of-fine-aroma-cocoa-through-chloroplast-dna/</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/PlantScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PlantScience</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Cacao" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cacao</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Agriculture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Agriculture</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/PlantGenetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PlantGenetics</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Science</a>

Andrew Millar5/8 🔬🧩 The simulated Kd values for the Evening Complex binding overlapped with the empirical data on its DNA-binding protein LUX ✅ Simulated CCA1/LHY bound much less tightly than its measured Kd. Likely, the plant regulates these proteins in ways we haven’t modelled: future research directions! We point to lots specific hypotheses, data and knowledge gaps, see Dataset EV1. We’re not pursuing any of them. <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/MicDrop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MicDrop</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/GoForIt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GoForIt</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/PlantGenetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PlantGenetics</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/MolecularBiology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MolecularBiology</a>

Bruce MacDonald"Some of these fixed genotypes are presumably as old as the Roman period," says Nicholas Howard, a geneticist at Fresh Forward in the Netherlands who has drawn heavily on the collection at Brogdale Farms in his research. The Romans, when they invaded the British Isles two millennia ago, are said to have brought domesticated apples with them. <a href="https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20241205-the-apple-library-with-a-lost-world-on-its-limbs" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20241205-the-apple-library-with-a-lost-world-on-its-limbs</a><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/apples" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#apples</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/PlantGenetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PlantGenetics</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/GeneticLibrary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GeneticLibrary</a>
