Phenotypic plasticity is broadly adaptive across an elevation gradient in the Cutleaf Monkeyflower

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Leaf shape plasticity expression is variable in Mimulus laciniatus. Summary Phenotypic plasticity is a key mechanism by which organisms cope with environmental heterogeneity, but its evolutionary consequences depend on how plastic responses align with the broader adaptive landscape.

Which, when, and where traits matter: functional trait‐mediated species associations shift with microenvironmental and climatic variation

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Community‐level fitted relationship between spatial association Lij and trait dissimilarity (tDij) at the fine spatial scale (r = 40 mm; where r represents the radius around individuals of the focal species). Summary Predicting coexistence in species‐rich plant communities requires understanding the role of functional traits in species interactions and

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Insights Into the Role of Lysine Acetylation of Non‐Histone Proteins in Plant Immunity

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant immunity is regulated by numerous transcriptional and posttranslational mechanisms. Among these, lysine acetylation, which is controlled by lysine acetyltransferases (KATs) and lysine deacetylases (KDACs), has been extensively studied, particularly in the context of epigenetic regulation through histone acetylation.

Distinct Foliar Uptake Pathways for Phosphorus and Nano‐Hydroxyapatite in Potato Revealed By Synchrotron μCT and ³³P Imaging

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) has a high phosphorus (P) requirement, yet its shallow root system and the strong P‐fixing capacity of many soils limit the effectiveness of soil fertilisation. Foliar application of nano‐hydroxyapatite particles (nHAPs) has emerged as a promising alternative P fertilisation practice.
