Desiccation tolerance mechanisms in the green lineage and beyond
New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 6, Page 3159-3175, September 2026.Ancient origin and recurrent evolution of desiccation tolerance in the green lineage. Summary Water is essential for life on Earth, yet some plants can survive the near‐complete loss of cellular water, a trait known as desiccation tolerance. Although rare in vegetative tissues of vascular plants, desiccation tolerance is scattered across the plant ...

MYB17‐DFR/LDOX Module Positively Regulates Cyanidin Deposition in Cinnamomum Camphora
Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6873-6885, September 2026.ABSTRACT Cinnamomum camphora is a cornerstone ornamental tree species in southern China, valued for its evergreen foliage and distinctive scent. However, the uniformly green foliage and brown bark limit its landscaping values. In this study, we characterised a coloured camphor variety, ‘Gantong 1’, and revealed cyanidin content as the critical factor ...
