Arabidopsis acclimation to daily environmental fluctuations converts a defense response regulator into a susceptibility factor toward Sclerotinia

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2516-2534, May 2026.
Summary Acclimation enables plants to adjust to immediate environmental fluctuations and is therefore key to the resilience of plant disease resistance in a time of climate change. Here, we report on the acclimation of Arabidopsis thaliana quantitative immune responses against the fungal pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum to daily environmental ...

Tissue Culture as a Source of Replicates in Nonmodel Plants: Variation in Cold Response in Arabidopsis lyrata ssp. petraea [PDF]

, 2016
While genotype–environment interaction is increasingly receiving attention by ecologists and evolutionary biologists, such studies need genetically homogeneous replicates—a challenging hurdle in outcrossing plants.

The native flora of the Redberry Lake Biosphere Region (Saskatchewan, Canada): taxonomy, biogeography, habitats and conservation

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study reports for the first time a checklist of native vascular plants and provides a comprehensive analysis of the flora of the Redberry Lake Biosphere Region (RLBR) in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada. To complete an inventory of the regional flora, I conducted intensive field investigations during 2010–2025 and employed detailed examination

Genetic mechanisms of pollution resistance in a marine invertebrate [PDF]

, 2007
Pollution is a common stress in the marine environment and one of today's most powerful agents of selection, yet we have little understanding of how anthropogenic toxicants influence mechanisms of adaptation in marine populations.

A century of theories of balancing selection

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 804-825, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short.

Unifying genetic canalization, genetic constraint, and genotype-by-environment interaction: QTL by genomic background by environment interaction of flowering time in Boechera stricta. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2014
Natural populations exhibit substantial variation in quantitative traits. A quantitative trait is typically defined by its mean and variance, and to date most genetic mapping studies focus on loci altering trait means but not (co)variances.

Aging and longevity in decades‐old genebanked seeds from U.S. endangered plant species: Assessments using survival and RNA integrity assays

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Premise Seed longevity is critical for successful genebanking, but it is hard to detect or predict. We examined survival of genebanked seeds from species native to the United States to estimate longevity. We tested whether RNA integrity (RIN) can be used to detect aging and predict mortality. Methods Dry seeds from >100 species were stored for

Deciphering the adjustment between environment and life history in annuals: lessons from a geographically-explicit approach in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

, 2014
The role that different life-history traits may have in the process of adaptation caused by divergent selection can be assessed by using extensive collections of geographically-explicit populations.

Assessing the viability of genebanked seeds from rare, wild plants native to the United States using the D.E.A.D. paradigm

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 2, March-April 2026.
Abstract Premise Genebanks must maintain viable seeds for decades. Seeds that germinate are clearly alive, but some seeds, often from wild populations, do not germinate because they are dormant, empty, aged, or damaged (D.E.A.D.). This work evaluates the effects of D.E.A.D.
