Effect of drought stress on the expression pattern of genes involved in ABA biosynthesis in Desi-type chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
CONCLUSIONS: In this paper, we tried to indicate that drought stress induces overexpression of genes triggering ABA-mediated drought responses simultaneously in two genotypes while more increment expression was related to the tolerant genotype. At first thought, it seems that the tolerant genotype compared to the sensitive genotype has a genetically inherent ability to cope with and drop adverse effects of drought stress through over-accumulation of ABA as drought.PMID:38551733 | DOI:10.1007/s11033-024-09402-y (Source: Molecular Biology Reports)

Spectraformer: deep learning model for grain spectral qualitative analysis based on transformer structure
This study delves into the use of compact near-infrared spectroscopy instruments for distinguishing between different varieties of barley, chickpeas, and sorghum, addressing a vital need in agriculture for precise crop variety identification. This identification is crucial for optimizing crop performance in diverse environmental conditions and enhancing food security and agricultural productivity. We also explore the potential application of transformer models in near-infrared spectroscopy and conduct an in-depth evaluation of the impact of data preprocessing and machine learning algorithms on variety classification. In ou...
