Conserved symbiosis‐associated genes in the cycad Encephalartos natalensis suggest co‐option for cyanobacterial symbiosis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2168-2185, August 2026.
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 ...

Accessory regions and horizontal gene transfer shape the evolution of clonal Colletotrichum nymphaeae infecting strawberry

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2186-2205, August 2026.
Genetic diversity of strawberry‐infecting Colletotrichum isolates. Summary Rapid adaptation in fungal plant pathogens is often attributed to sexual recombination, yet many important pathogens are largely clonal. We investigated how genetic and phenotypic diversity arises in the predominantly asexual fungus Colletotrichum nymphaeae, the main cause of ...

The genetic architecture of leaf vein density and its importance for photosynthesis in maize

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 1738-1754, August 2026.
Vein types in maize leaves. Summary Leaf venation density has significantly increased during plant evolution. Higher densities are observed in angiosperms compared with early land plants, and among angiosperms, recently diverged C4 species have the highest values.

The GSK3/SHAGGY‐like OsGSK3 phosphorylates and inhibits phase separation of OsFCA at Ser‐43 and Ser‐45 to regulate brassinosteroid signaling and rice architecture

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 1909-1929, August 2026.
A working model for GLYCOGEN SYNTHASE KINASE 3‐mediated phosphorylation of FLOWERING CONTROL LOCUS A in the regulation of brassinosteroid signaling and rice growth and development. Summary Brassinosteroid (BR) signaling plays a critical role in rice (Oryza sativa L.) grain development.

Global distribution and biogeography of ericoid mycorrhizal fungi

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2135-2151, August 2026.
Global predictions of local ericoid mycorrhizal fungal richness, its latitudinal trends and environmental predictors. Summary Ericoid mycorrhizal (ErM) fungi play a crucial role across terrestrial ecosystems, forming mutualistic symbiosis with Ericaceae and contributing to soil organic matter dynamics.
