Molecular Basis of Apomixis in Plants [PDF]
Apomixis is the consequence of a concerted mechanism that harnesses the sexual machinery and coordinates developmental steps in the ovule to produce an asexual (clonal) seed.

Low elevation “trailing edge” range margin populations typically face increases in both abiotic and biotic stressors that may contribute to range limit development.

Microbiome-Mediated Resistance of Wild Tomato to the Invasive Insect Prodiplosis longifila. [PDF]
Soil microbiome‐mediated resistance to Prodiplosis longifila in wild tomato. Wild tomato Solanum pimpinellifolium exhibited reduced leaf damage from P. longifila when gronw in live soil compared to sterilized soil. Sterilization disrupted root‐associated microbiome, particularly reduced the abundance of Actinoplanes, which is linked to biosynthetic ...

A Continental-Wide Perspective: The Genepool of Nuclear Encoded Ribosomal DNA and Single-Copy Gene Sequences in North American Boechera (Brassicaceae) [PDF]
74 of the currently accepted 111 taxa of the North American genus Boechera (Brassicaceae) were subject to pyhlogenetic reconstruction and network analysis. The dataset comprised 911 accessions for which ITS sequences were analyzed.

Summary Plant resistance influences the host range of pathogens; however, the mechanism driving this influence remains poorly understood. Brassicaceae species are not natural hosts of potexviruses, for reasons that have not yet been determined. This study investigated the molecular basis of nonhost resistance (NHR) to potexviruses in the Brassicaceae ...

Plant Evolution in Response to Abiotic and Biotic Stressors at “Rear-edge” Range Boundaries [PDF]
Most species in the mustard family are restricted to higher elevations and latitudes where they also have restricted local spatial distributions. In this chapter, we describe a novel hypothesis for the development of low-elevation range limits in upland ...

S-Acylation of the cellulose synthase complex is essential for its plasma membrane localization. [PDF]
Plant cellulose microfibrils are synthesized by a process that propels the cellulose synthase complex (CSC) through the plane of the plasma membrane. How interactions between membranes and the CSC are regulated is currently unknown.

Asexual reproduction through seeds: the complex case of diplosporous apomixis [PDF]
Apomixis is considered a potentially revolutionary tool to generate high-quality food at a lower cost and shorter developmental time due to clonal seed production through apomeiosis and parthenogenesis.

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 ...
