Keymessage Standardized microhaplotype databases for eight diverse crops enable multiallelic analyses, comparative genetics, and breeding decisions. Abstract Microhaplotypes are short genomic segments that contain multiple tightly linked variants, providing multi-allelic data that can enhance genetic resolution compared to traditional biallelic single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. Here, we present the creation and uti...

Taiwan, located at the northernmost extent of Huxley’s Line, marks the furthest point along this biogeographic boundary where exchanges of flora and fauna occur. The genus Piper , a globally distributed and taxonomically complex group of both economic and evolutionary importance, has a convoluted taxonomic history in this transitional zone that requires comprehensive study. Here, we integrate morphological, molecular, and dist...

Aquaculture faces rising climate-change risks, while photovoltaic power generation requires substantial land resources, underscoring the need for multifunctional land use in the energy transition. Aquavoltaics—combining aquaculture with solar power—has emerged, and its success depends on stakeholder cooperation. Using white shrimp aquaculture in Taiwan as a case study, this study examines four cooperation schemes—a sole-invest...
