Abstract
Leaf color mutants are ideal materials for studying chlorophyll metabolism, chloroplast development, and photosynthesis in plants. We discovered a novel eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) mutant yl20 (yellow leaf 20) that exhibits yellow leaves. In this study, we compared the leaves of the mutant yl20 and wild type (WT) plants for cytological, physiological, and transcriptomic analyses. The results showed that the mutant yl20 exhibits abnormal chloroplast ultrastructure, reduced chlorophyll and carotenoid contents, and lower photosynthetic efficiency compared to the WT. Transcriptome data indicated 3267 and 478 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between WT and yl20 lines in the cotyledon and euphylla stages, respectively, where most DEGs were downregulated in the yl20. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis revealed the "plastid-encoded plastid RNA polymerase complex" and the "chloroplast-related" terms were significantly enriched. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis demonstrated that the significantly enriched DEGs were involved in flavone and flavonol biosynthesis, porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism, etc. We speculated that these DEGs involved in significant terms were closely related to the leaf color development of the mutant yl20. Our results provide a possible explanation for the altered phenotype of leaf color mutants in eggplant and lay a theoretical foundation for plant breeding.

Abstract
Improving seed oil quality in peanut (Arachis hypogaea) has long been an aim of breeding programs worldwide. The genetic resources to achieve this goal are limited. We used an advanced recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from JH5 × KX01-6 to explore quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting peanut oil quality and their additive effects, epistatic effects, and QTL × environment interactions. Gas chromatography (GC) analysis suggested seven fatty acids components were obviously detected in both parents and analyzed in a follow-up QTL analysis. The major components, palmitic acid (C16:0), oleic acid (C18:1), and linoleic acid (C18:2), exhibited considerable phenotypic variation and fit the two major gene and minor gene mixed-inheritance model. Seventeen QTL explained 2.57-38.72% of the phenotypic variation in these major components, with LOD values of 4.12-37.56 in six environments, and thirty-five QTL explained 0.94-32.21% of the phenotypic variation, with LOD values of 5.99-150.38 in multiple environments. Sixteen of these QTL were detected in both individual and multiple environments. Among these, qFA_08_1 was a novel QTL with stable, valuable and major effect. Two other major-effect QTL, qFA_09_2 and qFA_19_3, share the same physical position as FAD2A and FAD2B, respectively. Eleven stable epistatic QTL involving nine loci explained 1.30-34.97% of the phenotypic variation, with epistatic effects ranging from 0.09 to 6.13. These QTL could be valuable for breeding varieties with improved oil quality.

Abstract
Bacillus spp. is one kind of the important representative biocontrol agents against plant diseases and promoting plant growth. In this study, the whole genomic sequence of bacterial strain HMB26553 was obtained. A phylogenetic tree based on the genome and ANI (average nucleotide identity), as well as dDDH (digital DNA-DNA hybridization), was constructed, and strain HMB26553 was identified as Bacillus velezensis. Fourteen biosynthetic gene clusters responsible for secondary metabolite were predicted via anti-SMASH, and six secondary metabolites were identified by UHPLC-QTOF-MS/MS (ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole-time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry). When the phytopathogen Rhizoctonia solani was treated with B. velezensis HMB26553, the mycelial structure changed, ROS (reactive oxygen species) accumulated, and the mitochondrial membrane potential decreased. Characteristics of strain HMB26553 were predicted and confirmed by genomic information and experiments, such as producing IAA, siderophore, extracellular enzymes and biofilm, as well as moving and promoting cotton growth. All these results suggested the mechanisms by which B. velezensis HMB26553 inhibits pathogen growth and promotes cotton growth, which likely provided the potential biocontrol agent to control cotton Rhizoctonia damping-off.

Abstract
KEY MESSAGE AhyHOF1, likely encoding a WRI1 transcription factor, plays critical roles in peanut oil synthesis. Although increasing the oil content of peanut to meet growing demand has long been a primary aim of breeding programs worldwide, the mining of genetic resources to achieve this objective has obviously lagged behind that of other oil crops. In the present study, we developed an advanced recombinant inbred line population containing 192 F9:11 families derived from parents JH5 and KX01-6. We then constructed a high-resolution genetic map covering 3,706.382 cM, with an average length of 185.32 cM per linkage group, using 2840 polymorphic SNPs. Two stable QTLs, qCOA08_1 and qCOA08_2 having the highest contributions to genetic variation (16.1% and 20.7%, respectively), were simultaneously detected in multiple environments and closely mapped within physical intervals of approximately 2.9 Mb and 1.7 Mb, respectively, on chromosome A08. In addition, combined analysis of whole-genome and transcriptome resequencing data uncovered a strong candidate gene encoding a WRI1 transcription factor and differentially expressed between the two parents. This gene, designated as High Oil Favorable gene 1 in Arachis hypogaea (AhyHOF1), was hypothesized to play roles in oil accumulation. Examination of near-inbred lines of #AhyHOF1/#Ahyhof1 provided further evidence that AhyHOF1 increases oil content, mainly by affecting the contents of several fatty acids. Taken together, our results provide valuable information for cloning the favorable allele for oil content in peanut. In addition, the closely linked polymorphic SNP markers within qCOA08_1 and qCOA08_2 loci may be useful for accelerating marker-assisted selection breeding of peanut.
