Leaf Senescence: The Chloroplast Connection Comes of Age
Leaf senescence is a developmental process critical for plant fitness, which involves genetically controlled cell death and ordered disassembly of macromolecules for reallocating nutrients to juvenile and reproductive organs.

Genomic and Cis‐Regulatory Basis of a Plastic C3‐C4 Photosynthesis in Eleocharis Baldwinii
The sedge Eleocharis baldwinii remarkably switches between C3‐like and C4‐like photosynthesis in response to environmental conditions. Combining gap‐free genome assembly with single‐cell multi‐omics, this study uncovers how subgenome dominance and cell‐specific cis‐regulation enable C4 photosynthesis.

Relocation of chloroplast proteins from cytosols into chloroplasts
The chloroplasts in terrestrial plants play a functional role as a major sensor for perceiving physiological changes under normal and stressful conditions. Despite the fact that the plant chloroplast genome encodes around 120 genes, which are mainly essential for photosynthesis and chloroplast biogenesis, the functional roles of the genes remain to be ...

Comparative Analysis of the Complete Chloroplast Genomes of Five Quercus Species
Quercus is considered economically and ecologically one of the most important genera in the Northern Hemisphere. Oaks are taxonomically perplexing because of shared interspecific morphological traits and intraspecific morphological variation, which are ...

Nanopriming enhances plant resilience to environmental challenges; however, its effectiveness across diverse genetic backgrounds, including genetic modifications and natural variations, remains uncertain. These findings demonstrate that nanopriming improves efficacy when natural genetic variations are considered, particularly in genetically modified ...

Plants distribute many nutrients to chloroplasts during leaf development and maturation. When leaves senesce or experience sugar starvation, the autophagy machinery degrades chloroplast proteins to facilitate efficient nutrient reuse.

Drought is a major cause of crop losses across agricultural regions. Rhizosheath formation enhances plant resistance to drought. Polyploids may tolerate stress more effectively through increased interactions with bacteria. However, the contributions of tetraploid rice associated microbiota to rhizosheath formation under soil drying remain unclear ...

Mitochondria and chloroplasts are interacting organelles that play important roles in plant development. In addition to a small number proteins encoded by their own genomes, the majority of mitochondrial and chloroplast proteins are encoded in the cell ...

Transport of Proteins into Chloroplasts [PDF]
A system has been constructed in vitro for the binding of cytoplasmically synthesized chloroplast proteins to the chloroplast envelope which precedes the uptake into the organelle in vivo.Isolated chloroplast envelopes from young pea or spinach are capable of binding the majority of proteins obtained by translation of poly(A)‐containing RNA from ...

Lilium is a large genus that includes approximately 110 species distributed throughout cold and temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere. The species-level phylogeny of Lilium remains unclear; previous studies have found universal markers but ...
