Description
Fulai Yu and nine colleagues present a 2026 study of the genes of a healing plant rich in a valued compound called verbascoside. How the plant builds this compound, and why some plants hold more of it, was largely unknown.
The team built a full gene map of the plant and checked which genes were active in each tissue. That work laid out the whole path the plant uses to make the compound. Ninety-five plants grown side by side for three years pointed to one region of Hainan as the source of the richest stock. One gene sat under strong selection, and its active form tracked with richer plants.
