Influence of cold temperatures during the imbibition phase on soybean and corn germination

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Early planting of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] and corn [Zea mays L.] in the Midwestern United States can optimize yield potential but also increase the risk of chilling injury from low temperatures during the imbibitional water uptake phase of germination. This study investigated how the timing and duration of exposure to cold temperature

Three Auxin Response Factors Promote Hypocotyl Elongation

, 2018
The hormone auxin regulates growth largely by affecting gene expression. By studying Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) mutants deficient in AUXIN RESPONSE FACTORS (ARFs), we have identified three ARF proteins that are required for auxin-responsive ...

Interaction Between Actin and Microtubules During Plant Development

Cytoskeleton, Volume 83, Issue 6, Page 328-336, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The dynamic interaction between actin filaments (AFs) and microtubules (MTs) plays a crucial role in regulating key developmental and physiological processes in plant cells, particularly in the formation of specialized cell types with distinct shapes and functions, such as pollen tubes, trichomes, and leaf epidermal cells.

Agent‐Based Computational Modeling of the Stochastic Dynamic Behavior of Actin Filaments Recapitulates the Homeostatic Cortical Array in Plant Epidermal Cells

Cytoskeleton, Volume 83, Issue 6, Page 407-426, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The homeostatic cortical actin array in plant cells plays important roles in fundamental processes, including intracellular transport, secretion, cell expansion, and cytoplasmic streaming. In response to diverse chemical and mechanical signals, the cortical array can remodel within minutes to assume new configurations or altered filament ...

Soybean seed coat properties as determinants of natto and sprout quality

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 8, Page 4994-5011, June 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Improving breeding efficiency for superior soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) germplasm used in natto and sprouts requires understanding how seed coat properties relate to quality and functional traits. METHODS We measured seed weight, water uptake, and sprout length and thickness across various genotypes tested at different locations
