Silene, a versatile model system: from sex and genome evolution to ecology and speciation
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Fundamental and applied research in evolutionary biology benefits from the use of model systems in which approaches from disparate disciplines can be integrated. Here, we review recent progress in evolutionary research on the long‐standing model system Silene, a large genus with a well‐resolved phylogeny and newly available, expanded genomic ...

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) support critical ecosystem services including plant resource acquisition and productivity. AMF functional traits such as relative biomass investment in root vs soil colonization or drought tolerance are thought to be evolutionarily conserved within AMF lineages and might influence AMF community responses to ...

Multi‐Omics Insights Into Anthraquinone Biosynthesis in Rheum tanguticum
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rheum tanguticum is renowned for its medicinal properties, including purgative, anti‐inflammatory and hepatoprotective effects, primarily attributed to anthraquinones (AQs). However, the molecular mechanisms of AQs biosynthesis have largely been hindered by insufficient genomic resources and functional genomics investigations.

Soil microbiomes conditioned by long‐term warming affect plant belowground performance
Plant Biology, EarlyView.Soil microbial communities conditioned by long‐term warming affect the plant performance of Anthoxantum odoratum and Agrostis capillaris by reducing belowground biomass. Abstract Global change affects plant performance, both directly through warming and indirectly through changes in their biotic and abiotic surroundings.
