Molecular Basis of Apomixis in Plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
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.

Effect of Drought on Herbivore-Induced Plant Gene Expression: Population Comparison for Range Limit Inferences

open access: yesPlants, 2016
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]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol Rep
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 ...

Genome draft of the Arabidopsis relative Pachycladon cheesemanii reveals novel strategies to tolerate New Zealand’s high ultraviolet B radiation environment

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Background Pachycladon cheesemanii is a close relative of Arabidopsis thaliana and is an allotetraploid perennial herb which is widespread in the South Island of New Zealand.

A Continental-Wide Perspective: The Genepool of Nuclear Encoded Ribosomal DNA and Single-Copy Gene Sequences in North American Boechera (Brassicaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
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.

An antiviral jacalin‐like lectin gene contributes to nonhost resistance and host determination of potexviruses among Brassicaceae

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3283-3298, June 2026.
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]

open access: yes, 2016
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]

open access: yes, 2016
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]

open access: yes, 2023
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.

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

open access: yesNew 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 ...
