Pangenome analysis reveals the genetic mechanism underlying high‐altitude adaptation in Qinghai–Xizang (Tibet) Plateau Rhododendron

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Pan‐genome analysis reveals that high‐altitude Rhododendron species resist alpine cold stress by rapidly sensing and engaging the chilling response pathway and genes that directly and indirectly protect the plant from UV radiation. Heritable genomic features such as long terminal repeats contribute to the adaptive diversification of Rhododendron ...

The IKU2/RLK7–MAPK–MINI3 signaling module controls endosperm cellularization timing to determine seed size in Arabidopsis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The phosphorylation status of the WRKY transcription factor WRKY10/MINI3, controls the timing of endosperm cellularization in Arabiopsis, thus regulating final seed size, offering a molecular understanding that could inform future agricultural breeding strategies. ABSTRACT Seed size is a critical factor in determining crop yield.

The evolutionary history of the ancient weevil family Belidae (Coleoptera: Curculionoidea) reveals the marks of Gondwana breakup and major floristic turnovers, including the rise of angiosperms

eLife
The rise of angiosperms to ecological dominance and the breakup of Gondwana during the Mesozoic marked major transitions in the evolutionary history of insect-plant interactions.

Chicken or egg? The evolutionary riddle of CMS and Rf in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) reduces pollen fertility and nuclear Rf genes restore fertility. This Commentary explores support for the “arms race” and “pre‐adaptation” models for CMS–Rf co‐evolution. CMS and Rf interact dynamically, influencing plant reproduction, stress tolerance, and hybrid seed production, highlighting co‐evolutionary processes ...

Bromélias e beija-flores: um modelo observacional para testar hipóteses sobre correlações e adaptações morfológicas recíprocas

Rodriguésia
Resumo Muitas angiospermas dependem da ação de animais para sua polinização. Embora a maioria das interações entre plantas e polinizadores não aparentem ser tão peculiares,de certa forma, parecem envolver algum grau de adaptação mútua de flor e animal. A

Diversification of Angiosperms During the Cretaceous Period

, 2021
The topic of the Angiosperms relatively sudden appearance and diversification is a topic that has puzzled plenty of biologists and is even referred to as an “abominable mystery” by Charles Darwin.

Auxin response and PIN‐mediated transport in chlorophyte algae

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Like multicellular plants, green algae respond to auxin and move it across their cells. However, their PIN‐like proteins do not act like plant auxin exporters, suggesting that basic auxin transport evolved early and specialized directional transport appeared later in plant evolution.

Unique Jurassic Ovaries Shed a New Light on the Nature of Carpels

Plants
Enclosed ovules are a reproductive feature restricted to angiosperms. Although this feature can be used as a criterion for identifying fossil angiosperms, how ovules are enclosed and the nature of the placenta are still foci of debates.

Strigolactone‐mediated architecture regulation and stress resilience: Insights and innovations for crop breeding

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the discovery, biosynthesis, and transport of strigolactone, and the D14‐D3/MAX2‐D53/SMXLs signaling module. It highlights diverse roles of strigolactone in plant architecture, stress responses, and crop breeding, including species‐specific functions, hormonal crosstalk, and agricultural applications.
