Bulbil formation in stress: Crucial role of triploid fitness in mixed ploidy dynamics in Costus speciosus

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Upon prolonged waterlogging, a Costus speciosus plant developed bulbils at stem node. Karyotype analysis, nucleolar staining, and anatomical study revealed its triploid status and developmental aspects. Prevalence of tetraploid, abundance, and unique reproductive fecundity of the triploid, indicates its determinant role in coexistence of the multiple ...

Nucleoredoxin 1 in Wheat: Genomic Analysis and Demonstration of Its Role in Redox Homeostasis and Stress Resilience

Plant Direct, Volume 9, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Nucleoredoxin 1 (NRX1), a member of the redoxin superfamily, plays a critical role in maintaining redox homeostasis and enhancing stress tolerance in plants. We employed integrated in silico analyses and CRISPR‐Cas9‐based genome editing to functionally characterize NRX1 in Triticum aestivum (wheat) responding to salinity and infection by ...
