Pangenome analysis reveals the genetic mechanism underlying high‐altitude adaptation in Qinghai–Xizang (Tibet) Plateau Rhododendron

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Pan‐genome analysis reveals that high‐altitude Rhododendron species resist alpine cold stress by rapidly sensing and engaging the chilling response pathway and genes that directly and indirectly protect the plant from UV radiation. Heritable genomic features such as long terminal repeats contribute to the adaptive diversification of Rhododendron ...

CO2‐sensitive K+ channel traffic affects stomata and whole‐plant water use

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
CO2‐responsive regulation of membrane trafficking influences the density of the potassium ion (K+) channel KAT1 at the plasma membrane. CO2‐sensitive traffic, dependent on trafficking by the SNARE SYP121, impacts stomatal gas exchange and plant growth.
