Description
Jiguang Luo and co-authors profiled a gene called HcTGA5 in kenaf in 2026 and tied it to resistance against root-knot nematodes. Kenaf is a fiber plant in the mallow family, and the nematode named in the study is its most destructive pest in the tropics, cutting yield and quality. Breeders need resistant stock and the pathways behind it.
The team cloned the gene from kenaf with standard copying and end-completion methods. Its full copy runs 798 bases and codes a protein of 230 units, in the figures reported. They then tracked how the gene responds to hormone treatments and how its activity lines up with resistance. Readers get a candidate resistance gene characterized end to end, from sequence to behavior under signals.
