Structural Variations Contribute to Subspeciation and Yield Heterosis in Rice
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Yield heterosis has been extensively exploited in hybrid breeding, with intersubspecific hybrids often exhibiting the most pronounced effects. However, developing elite hybrids remains a laborious and time‐consuming process. The genetic basis of heterosis has been debated for over a century, hindered largely by the lack of high‐quality genomes.

Physiological role of brassinolide in the light development of Arabidopsis thaliana seedling
RUDN Journal of Agronomy and Animal Industries, 2011 The regulatory role of more active brassinosteroids - brassinolide in seedling development in darkness was studied. The growth parameters and photosynthetic pigment content of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings under differ light conditions were investigated.

Plant signaling : interplay of brassinosteroids and auxin in root meristems
, 2021 The plant hormones brassinosteroids (BRs) and auxin interact to regulate root meristem size. A new study reveals dual and opposing roles for BRs in auxin biosynthesis and signaling output in the Arabidopsis root epidermis, demonstrating that epidermis ...

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction of dwarfism to cereals has set a new paradigm in crop improvement programmes. To date, very little progress has been made in the development of high‐yielding dwarf/semi‐dwarf genotypes in oilseed Brassica. Previous attempts using induced mutagenesis employed in the induction of dwarfism in Brassica crops yielded limited success ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.

Molecular Links Between Heat Stress and DNA Damage Response in Plants
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Climate change poses a major threat to agricultural productivity and, consequently, to global food security. Among the consequences of climate change, heat stress (HS) has emerged as a critical factor limiting crop performance. This has stimulated extensive research over the past decade to elucidate the molecular and physiological mechanisms ...
