Fine‐root trait variation in temperate trees follows arc‐shape pattern along deep soil profiles
Root trait variation along the soil depth profile in four temperate tree species. Summary Roots are plants' interface with the soil, controlling access to water and nutrients. Yet, fine‐root trait variation along deep soil profiles and its functional implications remain poorly understood.

Biosynthesis and accumulation of tanshinones in the periderm of Salvia miltiorrhiza during secondary root growth. Summary Perennial herbs develop long‐lived roots that undergo repeated cycles of secondary growth, during which the periderm functions as a protective barrier and a major site of specialized metabolite accumulation.

Water content estimation of conifer needles using leaf-level hyperspectral data
Water is a crucial component for plant growth and survival. Accurately estimating and simulating plant water content can help us promptly monitor the physiological status and stress response of vegetation.

Barley HvBODYGUARD1 controls cuticular specialisations regulated by SHINE transcription factors
Cuticle defects result from defective HvBDG1 alleles. Summary Land plants secrete a protective outer cuticular layer with diverse functions. Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) develops two cuticular specialisations: the β‐diketone rich wax bloom on vegetative tissues and an adherent grain surface which sticks to the hulls, leading to barley's distinctive ...

Complex History of Organellar Introgression in <i>Nothofagus</i> Trees: Chloroplast and Mitochondrial Capture Facilitated by Natural Selection. [PDF]
Field photograph of an ancient Nothofagus tree covered with epiphytic lichens in the Patagonian temperate rainforest. This genus serves as a key model for investigating organellar introgression and evolutionary genomics in South America. ABSTRACT Hybridization is widespread across diverse groups of organisms, and in some cases, organellar genomes of ...

The heterocyst‐rich Encephalartos natalensis cyanobacterial zone in coralloid root suggests co‐option of conserved symbiosis‐associated genes. This figure was created in BioRender (BioRender.com/https://BioRender.com/n3qveqc). Summary Plant‐cyanobacterial symbioses have evolved independently at least four times across land plants, yet their underlying ...

Palms are unique: clade‐level pattern of the leaf-height-seed strategy scheme
IntroductionThe leaf-height-seed (LHS) plant ecology strategy scheme posits that functional traits such as leaf size, stem height and seed mass play a key role in life history of plants.

Evidence for a trade‐off between growth rate and xylem embolism resistance in 22 Eucalyptus species
Examples of cross‐sectional images of branchlets at 4× and 40×. Summary Within the growth–survival trade‐off framework, embolism resistance is considered a contributor to survival, yet whether greater embolism resistance inherently limits growth remains unclear.
