PWO proteins are associated with PRC2 since their emergence in vascular plants

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 4002-4021, June 2026.
Summary The Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), a conserved histone methyltransferase complex, plays a central role in transcriptional silencing across eukaryotes. Here, we investigate the evolution of PWWP‐DOMAIN INTERACTORS OF POLYCOMBS (PWOs), which interact with PRC2, and examine the conservation of the PWOs‐PRC2 interaction across plant ...

The BAHD Acyltransferase Gene Family: Evolutionary Dynamics, Biochemical Mechanisms, and Roles in Plant Stress Adaptation

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4139-4158, June 2026.
BAHD acyltransferases drive metabolic diversification in plants by coupling conserved catalytic scaffolds with regulatory flexibility, enabling stress adaptation and ecological specialisation. ABSTRACT BAHD acyltransferases constitute one of the most versatile enzyme superfamilies in plants, catalysing the acylation of alcohols, amines, polyamines, and

Ecological divergence in the silver moss Bryum argenteum: developmental, ontogenetic and life‐history trait variations across contrasting tropical ecosystems

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 1289-1299, June 2026.
Ecotypes of the cosmopolitan moss Bryum argenteum differ markedly in growth, reproductive timing, and allocation across contrasting tropical ecosystems. These patterns reveal strong environment‐ and sex‐dependent life‐history strategies, highlighting the species as a model for studying ecological divergence in bryophytes.

Bio‐mediated cementation of supratidal beach sediments associated with groundwater springs

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 1271-1285, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The formation of beachrock, sensu stricto, via carbonate precipitation in the intertidal zone is widespread throughout the tropics and subtropics. While cementation of supratidal beach sediments has also been noted in several locations, it has received much less attention.

Transcription of photosynthetic genes in the plant chloroplast: lessons from bacteria

The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 5, June 2026.
SUMMARY The RNA polymerase that transcribes photosynthetic genes in the plant chloroplast is the largest known transcription enzyme across all domains of life, comprising 21 subunits of bacterial and eukaryotic origin. Recent structural analyses revealed that the core polymerase, inherited from the cyanobacterial ancestor of the chloroplast, is encased

Comparison of mitochondrial genomes of bryophytes

, 2012
Bryophytes (liverworts, mosses and hornworts) hold the basal most position among extant land plants. The present study deals with comparative analysis of available mitochondrial genomes of bryophytes using bioinformatics tools.
