The incredible vulnerability that reproduction poses for plant species in a warming world. [PDF]
Generalized plant responses to heat stress across whole‐plant and reproductive scales. Summary Temperatures are rising globally and threatening the persistence of natural plant populations. Elevated temperatures disrupt gametogenesis, fertilization, and seed filling, often at lower thresholds than those affecting photosynthesis, growth, or survival ...

Microarray analysis of single isolated cells of the female gametophyte reveals potential regulators of female germline development in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
This work has used single-cell isolation and transcriptome profiling to further our knowledge about the cells comprising the female gametophyte of Arabidopsis thaliana which have thus far been highly inaccessible.

40S ribosome biogenesis co-factors are essential for gametophyte and embryo development [PDF]
Ribosome biogenesis is well described in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In contrast only very little information is available on this pathway in plants. This study presents the characterization of five putative protein co-factors of ribosome biogenesis in ...

VPS13 has an important role in female germline development in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
SUMMARY The female germline precursor cell, known as the megaspore mother cell (MMC), differentiates and develops within the ovule through a complex genetic network, including post‐transcriptional and translational regulation mediated by miRNA. A key player in restricting MMC development to a single cell within the nucellus is the AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR

Genome-Wide Analysis of DNA Methylation During Ovule Development of Female-Sterile Rice fsv1
The regulation of female fertility is an important field of rice sexual reproduction research. DNA methylation is an essential epigenetic modification that dynamically regulates gene expression during development processes.

Floral stage optimization and immune evasion enhance Agrobacterium-mediated genome editing in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
Summary Agrobacterium‐mediated transformation by floral inoculation (AMT‐FI) enables genetic engineering without tissue culture. It is widely used in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, yet its efficiency and broader applicability remain limited. Here, we used a dual‐reporter system (RUBY and hygromycin resistance) to identify key floral stages and ...
