Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant carbon‐use efficiency (CUE) is a key parameter quantifying the net carbon gain with respect to gross carbon fixation. Although it is critical for carbon cycle models, it is often assigned an empirical value due to measurement difficulty. Uncertainty remains whether CUE is affected by warming. We quantified CUE in wheat (Triticum aestivum)

Rhizobacterial Modulation of Maize Defense Alters Herbivore Performance and Parasitoid Behavior
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The association between plants and beneficial soil microorganisms can profoundly influence aboveground trophic interactions, yet these effects are often context‐dependent. Although plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are increasingly used in maize production, little is known about how these microorganisms affect maize defenses against ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Agricultural weeds typically combine high reproductive output with fast vegetative growth. Here we analyzed the processes that overcome a potential trade‐off between vegetative growth and reproduction in the weed Avena fatua. We determined photosynthetic function of inflorescences and analyzed the transcriptomes of individual inflorescence ...

Understanding Leaf Surface‐Specific Stomatal Traits and Their Effects on Barley Grain Yield
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Spring barley yields are highly variable, depending mostly on early season precipitation and temperature. Stomatal traits (stomatal conductance, size, density, adaxial to abaxial stomatal density ratio and conductance ratio) are important determinants of plant production and stress tolerance.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT CLS (Cercospora leaf spot) is a major constraint in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) cultivation, yet the functions of CaM/CML family members in CLS resistance are unclear. This study identified the CaM/CML family in sugar beet and focused on BvCaM7, which was significantly upregulated under CLS. Calcium measurements revealed differential calcium

Plant Biology, EarlyView.Knock‐down of a xylem‐localized citrate transporter, FRDL1, reduces foliar iron concentrations and leaf symptoms under excess ferrous iron stress in rice. Abstract Iron (Fe) toxicity is a common agricultural problem that limits rice yield in various regions of Southeast Asia and Africa.
