Starch Synthase 3 isoforms are essential for normal starch granule initiation in wheat endosperm

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Wheat grains have two distinct types of starch granules. Large, lenticular A‐type granules are formed from a single initiation per amyloplast during early grain development, while numerous small B‐type granules are initiated during later grain development.

Evolutionary mobility and genetic dynamics of MORFFO genes: shuttling among ancient plant lineages

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Plastid genomes (plastomes) of land plants are characterized by their architectural and genic content stability. However, fern plastomes exhibit unexpected dynamism, characterized by the presence of mobile protein‐coding genes (CDS) – Mobile Open Reading Frames in Fern Organelles (MORFFOs). We investigate the evolutionary dynamics of MORFFOs in

Role of extracellular carbonic anhydrase in the polar diatom Fragilariopsis cylindrus

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Diatoms are major primary producers in productive polar oceans, where cold temperatures and high CO2 solubility raise questions as to whether they rely on the CO2‐concentrating mechanism (CCM) to saturate photosynthesis. Knowledge of CCM function will help better predict the sensitivity of diatom primary production to warming and acidifying ...

Multifaceted roles of BBX transcription factors: impacts on key agronomical traits and environmental resilience

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary B‐box (BBX) proteins were initially characterized as transcription factors connecting light signaling to the regulation of flowering time and seedling photomorphogenesis. However, over the last decade, increasing evidence has shown that they integrate light and hormone signaling, modulating multiple physiological processes during plant life. In
