Breeding for the future through cross-community education and multi-modal approaches
Science requires deliberate conversations and clarifications. When researchers connect with their communities to reflect on experiments, approaches, and processes, it strengthens and enriches research areas and builds consensus. G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics provides a unique platform through Dialogue and Debate articles to encourage scientists to share their viewpoints on timely topics and offer the best solutions to…

Gain or loss? Time to rethink how we describe gain-of-function mutations
Characterizing how mutations bring about phenotypic changes is a common strategy for identifying molecular underpinnings. A perspective article in GENETICS challenges the way researchers categorize mutations as gain-of-function and advises how to avoid misleading labeling.

From Arabidopsis to Zea mays, there’s a knowledgebase for that
In 2022, GENETICS debuted its first annual overview of selected knowledgebases. In continuance of that tradition, this year’s piece will discuss 12 knowledgebase updates with an emphasis on economically important plant Model Organism Databases (MODs). MODs, which first appeared in the 1990s, are sophisticated knowledgebases that aim to organize and integrate heterogeneous published knowledge for…
