Through high-resolution RNA-seq time-course analysis of tomato under varying photoperiods, this study reveals that morning-phased transcripts act as transcriptional sensors of day length to serve as zeitgeber references for evening transcripts, which measure photoperiod via coincidence with external cues to drive seasonal adaptation.
This study reveals that drought-induced suppression of plant immunity and iron uptake drives *Streptomyces* enrichment in roots across diverse soils and evolutionary lineages, yet the resulting plant benefits are uncoupled from this enrichment and instead depend on intra-genus antagonism among bacterial strains.
This study demonstrates that the nuclear-encoded PPR9 protein is essential for Arabidopsis early development and growth by mediating the splicing of specific mitochondrial *nad* transcripts, thereby enabling the biogenesis of respiratory complex I and maintaining cellular energy metabolism.
This study demonstrates that the EOBV protein functions as a component of the MBW complex to negatively regulate phenylpropene biosynthesis in petunia flowers while also mitigating heat-induced reductions in flower size, thereby revealing a molecular link between floral scent, pigmentation, and development.
This study reveals that the Arabidopsis nucleoporins NUP98A and NUP98B are essential for the nitrate-triggered nuclear accumulation of the master transcription factor NLP7, thereby enabling efficient plant acclimation to nitrogen availability and growth.
This study presents the first high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly of the Mesoamerican black bean cultivar Negro Jamapa and introduces Phabase, an integrative data portal providing this genome alongside a comprehensive expression atlas and analytical tools to advance common bean functional genomics and breeding.
This review examines the genetic and molecular mechanisms regulating spikelet number per spike in wheat, highlighting how florigen transport and meristem identity genes determine yield potential, while discussing the challenges of breeding supernumerary spikelet traits and the accelerating role of modern omics technologies in discovering new genes for crop improvement.
This paper introduces Botanic0, a family of plant genomic foundation models pretrained on diverse plant genomes that achieve state-of-the-art performance across various genomic prediction tasks and establish a scalable framework for advancing crop improvement and genome editing research.
By integrating targeted metabolomics and transcriptome profiling across multiple tissues and developmental stages, this study elucidates the spatiotemporal regulatory mechanisms of ginsenoside biosynthesis in *Panax notoginseng* and identifies four key transcription factors (AT3G12130, SPL9, MYB33, and SPL1) that coordinate the expression of biosynthetic enzymes to drive tissue-specific accumulation.
This study identifies a conserved root-knot nematode effector, EFF17, which promotes parasitism by targeting host Kinesin Light Chain Related (KLCR) proteins to facilitate the formation of feeding sites.
This study employs a landscape transcriptomics approach across multiple field sites and seasons to integrate phenotypic and transcriptomic data from over 3,000 native *Arabidopsis thaliana* plants, successfully linking climate fluctuations to gene expression and using machine learning to identify and validate both known and novel genetic regulators of temperature responses in natural environments.
This study demonstrates that the evolutionarily conserved INO80-EEN complex in *Arabidopsis* not only regulates plant growth and endoreduplication but also plays a critical, previously overlooked role in preventing UV-B-induced structural rearrangements within protein-coding gene regions to maintain genome integrity.
This study identifies Arabidopsis CORNICHON HOMOLOG 5 (AtCNIH5) as a phosphate-starvation-induced endoplasmic reticulum cargo receptor that facilitates the export of specific membrane proteins, including phosphate transporters and various other transporters, thereby enhancing plant growth under low-phosphate conditions.
This study reveals that the miR166-REVOLUTA-auxin regulatory module governs potato tuber shape, pigmentation, and productivity by modulating auxin homeostasis and vascular development during stolon differentiation.
This study demonstrates that a semi-automated rhizobox imaging system for screening early root development in faba bean and white clover can effectively predict field yield through significant genetic correlations, offering a valuable tool for breeding climate-resilient legume varieties in Northern Europe.
This report establishes a baseline inventory of the bryophyte flora in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Utah, documenting 117 taxa including numerous new state records and undescribed species, while identifying diversity hotspots in riparian canyons and proposing a habitat-stratified monitoring approach to track climate change impacts on dryland bryophytes.
This study demonstrates that Calvin-Benson cycle intermediate levels vary significantly among closely-related tomato species, supporting the conclusion that CBC evolution is shaped by both phylogenetic relatedness and lineage-specific adaptation.
This study demonstrates that in two temperate tree species, stem photosynthesis is strongly coordinated with seasonal growth activity and water status rather than chlorophyll content, peaking in May to partially refix respiratory CO2 before declining as the growing season progresses.
This study presents chromosome-level genome assemblies of two *Sarracenia* species, revealing that the evolution of carnivory in this genus is driven primarily by repeat-driven genome expansion and widespread gene loss—particularly in photosynthesis and immunity pathways—rather than by extensive gene family expansion.
This study integrates genome-wide association and transcriptomic analyses of Arabidopsis thaliana to identify key genetic loci and molecular pathways, including lipid metabolism, protein degradation, and iron deficiency responses, that govern alkalinity tolerance and offer targets for engineering crop resilience.
