Article Abstract

Terpenoids play a crucial role in plant growth and development, as well as in regulating resistance mechanisms. Terpene synthase (TPS) serves as the final step in the synthesis process of terpenoids. However, a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis of the TPS gene family in plants had not previously been systematically undertaken. In this study, a total of 531 TPS members were identified in plants. The evolutionary tree divided the TPS proteins into five subfamilies: Group1, Group2, Group3, Group4, and Group5. The results of the duplication events analysis showed that TD and WGD were major driving forces during the evolution of the TPS family. The cis-element analysis showed that the TPS genes were related to plant growth and development and environmental stress. Moreover, the GO annotation displayed that the biological function of TPS was relatively conserved in wheat plants. The RNA-seq data showed that the rice and wheat TPS genes responded to low-temperature stress and exhibited significantly different expression patterns. This research shed light on the functions of TPSs in responding to abiotic stress and demonstrated their modulatory potential during root development. These findings provide a foundation for further and deeper investigation of the TPSs' functions in plants.

Background: Single-isocenter multiple-target (SIMT) treatments are a robust beam delivery technique involving modulated multileaf collimators for off-axis targets. SIMT requires quality assurance (QA) for both dosimetry and geometry to ensure accurate beam delivery according to the treatment plan. A primary challenge in SIMT QA is the need for phantoms capable of evaluating both dosimetric and geometric accuracy.

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a crucial global food crop, but high temperatures inhibit tuberization and reduce yield. To investigate heat tolerance genetics, a crossing population was created using the cultivars Annabelle (early tuber-forming, moderately heat-tolerant) and Camel (mid-early tuber-forming, heat-sensitive).

Background: Patient-specific quality assurance (PSQA) is crucial in radiation therapy to ensure accurate and safe dose delivery. The Elekta Unity MR-Linac system, which combines MRI with a linear accelerator, presents unique challenges for conventional PSQA methods due to its adaptive capabilities and the presence of a magnetic field.

Purpose: This study introduced a novel PSQA method for the Elekta Unity MR-Linac system, utilizing treatment log files and fluence map verification to provide a more efficient alternative to traditional measurement-based techniques.
