Description
Sugar beet is a major crop, and a family of switch genes called bHLH helps steer its growth and stress responses. Haizhu Yang and co-authors map this whole gene family in the beet genome for the first time in this 2025 study, finding 96 members spread unevenly across nine chromosomes.
The genes fall into 21 subgroups, share a few common building blocks, and show signs of copying events in their past. The team also tracked how a dozen of the genes switch on in different tissues and under eight kinds of stress. The catalog gives breeders candidate genes for hardier, better beets.
