A complete, gap-free genome of Medicago lupulina, a tough, high-protein forage legume, and a gene-editing tool for this species, which was used to alter its leaf shape, provide key resources for improving alfalfa and breeding better forage crops for high-altitude environments.
A CRISPR/Cas9 toolkit was established for the rice leaffolder using entirely endogenous regulatory elements and provides a system for functional genomics in this pest.

ABSTRACT Clonostachys rosea is a fungus with significant applications in biological control, plant growth promotion, and secondary metabolite production essential for agriculture. We report the de novo genome assembly of C. rosea strain CMAA1284 (also known as LQC 62), which shows high contiguity and excellent gene com...

Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
