Newest firstCannabis sativa is a multipurpose dioecious species whose crop performance is governed by sex expression. Although sex is genetically determined by an X/Y chromosome system, plants can develop flowers of the opposite sex through sex reversion, commonly induced by manipulating endogenous hormone levels using plant growth regulators (PGRs). Here, we evaluated the effectiveness of PGRs that promote or inhibit major h…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cannabis sativa is a wind-pollinated, predominantly dioecious, and outcrossing crop associated with high levels of genetic variability even within a single cultivar. As such, seed-grown crops are often constrained by variability issues, decreasing production efficiency and product consistency. F1 hybrid seed technology offers great potential to address these limitations by generating genetically uniform population…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cannabis (Cannabis sativa L.) flower glandular trichomes (GTs) are the main site of cannabinoid synthesis. Phytohormones, such as jasmonic acid (JA) and salicylic acid (SA), have been shown to increase cannabinoid content in cannabis flowers, but how this is regulated remains unknown. This study aimed to understand which biological processes in GT disc cells phytohormones control by using an in vitro assay. Live G…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cannabis sativa L. has been cultivated for millennia as a source of food and fibre. Increasing demand for functional foods has renewed interest in C. sativa seeds (hempseeds), which are rich in essential fatty acids and amino acids. However, a near-global moratorium on C. sativa cultivation and research throughout most of the 20th century has delayed crop improvement using modern breeding approaches. As a result,…
Monoecy in Cannabis sativa L. has long been considered an industrially important trait due to the increased uniformity it offers and was thought to be exclusively associated with XX females. The isolation and characterisation of a monoecious individual with XY chromosomes sourced from non-proprietary germplasm is reported for the first time. The chromosomal make up of this trait was confirmed through inflorescence…
