The Mechanism of Seed Priming with Abscisic Acid for Enhancing Cuticle Deposition Under Drought Stress: Phenotypic and Transcriptomic Insights

open access: yesAgriculture
Plant cuticles are crucial for protecting plants from various environmental stresses. Seed priming with abscisic acid (ABA) enhances crop stress tolerance, but its molecular mechanisms in cuticular wax and cutin biosynthesis remain unclear.

Temporally disjunct herbaceous species differ in leaf embolism resistance

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary In the temperate Northern Hemisphere, herbaceous community composition undergoes major seasonal phenological shifts. Despite significant variation in water availability across growing seasons, few studies have associated physiological traits with seasonal shifts in community composition.

Selection strengthens the relationship between plant diversity and the metabolic profile of Plantago lanceolata

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Plant species diversity enhances community productivity, but how plant diversity impacts the metabolome of individual plants and the underlying eco‐evolutionary processes remains unclear. This study investigated how plant species diversity and selection for growing in different diversity environments affect the leaf metabolome of Plantago ...

Climate adaptation in Populus trichocarpa: key adaptive loci identified for stomata and leaf traits

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary We investigated adaptive genetic variation in Populus trichocarpa, a potential biofuel feedstock crop, to better understand how physiological traits may influence tolerance to water limitation. Our study focused on leaf and stomatal traits, given their roles in plant–water relations and adaptation. Using a diversity panel of over 1300 genotypes,

Influence of Diazotrophic Bacteria on Antioxidant Enzymes and Some Biochemical Characteristics of Soybean Subjected to Water Stress

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2012
Drought stress is an abiotic stress that imposes serious constraints on plants. The present investigation was carried out to determine the inter-relationship between some physiological attributes of soybeans affected by drought stress and pure isolates ...

Phytochrome A is required for light‐inhibited germination of Aethionema arabicum seed

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary The germination of most seeds is influenced by the duration, intensity, and quality of light. The seeds of the model plant Arabidopsis are positive photoblastic and require light to germinate. The germination of negative photoblastic seeds is inhibited by white light.
