The Pi values of 33 genes ranged from 0 to 0.16277. Phylogenetic analysis divided 43 species into 6 categories. Combined with the results of collinearity, it was found that Festuca pratensis had the closest genetic relationship with Lolium perenne. In this study, the first high-quality mitochondrial genome of Festuca pratensis was assembled, which provided key high-quality reference data for subsequent organelle genome evolution, stress-resistant functional gene mining and germplasm resource identification of related species.]]> https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpls.2026.1809773 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpls.2026.1809773 <![CDATA[Mechanisms underlying patchy distribution pattern and spread of the invasive species Solanum rostratum (Solanaceae) in the Agro-Pastoral region of Northern China]]> 2026-05-13T00:00:00Z Original Research Qian-Mei WuRui WangLi-Fen HaoCheng-Dong XuHui WangKe-Jian Lin https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpls.2026.1828668 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpls.2026.1828668 <![CDATA[Integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic profiles analysis reveals a potential gene−metabolite network associated with anthocyanin−mediated color variation in maize kernels]]> 2026-05-13T00:00:00Z Original Research Junhao RanRuirui HuXuanyu LiuZiyi FuZhiqiang HeGuangtong XingYi HeDongpu JiChaofeng LiXiupeng MeiLian Zhou https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpls.2026.1793924 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpls.2026.1793924 <![CDATA[Genetic enhancement of root, tuber and cereal crops via pangenomics, multi-omics integration and AI-driven prediction]]> 2026-05-13T00:00:00Z Review Simbo DiakitePrince E.

Furthermore, the Richards model and Sine model were used to accurately fit the growth dynamics of leaf area and curd area, respectively. Based on growth kinetics, curds were classified into three types: mature and compact type, peak-burst type, and steady-increase type. Cluster analysis of 47 germplasms based on high-throughput phenotyping data revealed four groups and their growth characteristics: comprehensively coordinated type, mid-maturity compact type, large high-yield type, and curd-dominant type. Integrating the above functions, a platform for cauliflower growth monitoring and phenotypic analysis was developed. It provided full-process support from automatic image processing to growth dynamic analysis. This work provides an effective automated solution for high-throughput phenotyping analysis and growth dynamic monitoring of cauliflower, and offers a referable analytical framework for crop growth pattern research and intelligent breeding decision-making.]]> https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpls.2026.1818796 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpls.2026.1818796 <![CDATA[Fungal foe: exploring cotton’s physiological responses to Verticillium wilt]]> 2026-05-13T00:00:00Z Review Xian YuWarwick N.
