Soybean plays a crucial role in meeting nitrogen demands through biological nitrogen fixation (BNF), a process highly dependent on phosphorus availability. Low-phosphorus (LP) stress significantly impairs nodule development, thereby affecting soybean growth and productivity. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted using the ratio of the nodule numbers (RNNs) under normal phosphorus condition and low-phosphorus condition in a natural population with 272 soybean accessions grown in three environments

Experts from Chonnam National University have developed a new way to reduce histamine levels in tomatoes using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing. Histamine, a compound that can trigger adverse reactions in sensitive individuals, is found at relatively high levels in tomatoes. In this study, the researchers modified specific genes linked to histamine production during fruit ripening.
