Description
Liubin Huang and nine co-authors catalog a gene family in quinoa in a 2024 paper. The genes, called FAR1, help plants respond to light and may affect sprouting of the seed head before harvest, a problem for growers. Quinoa is valued worldwide for nutrition and hardy growth, yet this gene family was barely studied in it.
The team found eighty seven FAR1 genes in quinoa and sorted them into five groups with similar structure. Gene activity varied across tissues and growth stages, with strong roles in leaves and seed heads. Activity rose sharply at the early stage of head sprouting. The catalog gives breeders targets for improving sprouting resistance.
