Signatures of local nitrogen adaptation in the Brachypodium distachyon root microbiome

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 433-447, January 2026.
Summary Plants associate with diverse microbiomes that impact their fitness, yet the contribution of the microbiome to plant adaptation is uncertain. As plant recruitment of its microbiome can be both highly variable and genetically determined, we hypothesized this recruitment process may be the result of adaptive evolution, and contributing to plant ...

Unraveling mannan biosynthesis in poplar and spruce: functional characterization of Cellulose Synthase‐Like family A (CSLA) genes

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 282-298, January 2026.
Summary Hemicelluloses are key chemical constituents of plant cell walls, influencing structure, strength, and interactions between cellulose and lignin. While xylan has been widely studied and shown to affect cell wall integrity, the function of mannan remains largely unexplored.

Mycelial dynamics in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 691-713, January 2026.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), similar to other filamentous fungi, develop extensive hyphal networks collectively known as mycelia. AMF mycelia are complemented by a variety of specialized structures such as spores, vesicles, and auxiliary cells, which together form integrated and functionally diverse AMF networks.

Diploid origins and early genome stabilization in the allotetraploid Arabidopsis suecica

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 524-538, January 2026.
Summary Polyploidization, followed by genome downsizing, is a recurrent evolutionary cycle that dramatically reshapes genome structure. Newly formed polyploids must quickly adjust their cell division machinery to maintain stable chromosome inheritance, while long‐term stabilization involves rediploidization, returning the genome to a diploid‐like state.

The architecture of resilience: a genome assembly of Myrothamnus flabellifolia sheds light on desiccation tolerance and sex determination

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 1063-1084, January 2026.
Summary Myrothamnus flabellifolia is a dioecious resurrection plant endemic to southern Africa that has become an important model for understanding desiccation tolerance. Despite its ecological and medicinal significance, genomic and transcriptomic resources for the species are limited.

The optimization of crop response to climatic stress through modulation of plant stress response mechanisms. Opportunities for biostimulants and plant hormones to meet climate challenges.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 130-151, January 2026.
Summary This review discusses the use of agronomic management practices to enhance crop stress resilience to climate stress through the modulation of natural plant growth regulatory pathways. The use of biostimulants or plant hormones to improve crop resilience is subject to strict regulatory oversight if changes in the regulation of plant growth are ...
