ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.

A Wild Emmer Wheat B3 Transcription Factor Regulates Seed Growth and Nutrient Allocation
ABSTRACT Seed weight (SW) and nutrient allocation are key determinants of yield and grain quality in wheat, yet the regulatory basis of naturally occurring variation in these traits remains poorly resolved. Wild emmer wheat (Triticum dicoccoides), the progenitor of modern wheat, retains extensive eco‐geographically structured genetic diversity that was

Trichomes in Plant Defence, Development and Metabolic Integration Under Environmental Stress
ABSTRACT Among various plant defence strategies, trichomes are tiny hair‐like structures on the epidermis that aid in defence, environmental adaptation and the production of valuable secondary metabolites. This review features trichomes as frontline guards for plant survival, integrating their structural, physiological and metabolic roles in ...

Harnessing Natural Diversity and Rational Design for Enhanced Plant Immunity
ABSTRACT Plant pathogens cause crop loss. Genetic resistance, through natural genetic diversity or engineered resistance, can be highly effective in protecting plants from infection. Genetic resistance from wild relatives of crops has been successfully introduced into crops to control pathogen infection.

ABSTRACT Two major tasks in applications of hidden Markov models are to (i) compute distributions of summary statistics of the hidden state sequence, and (ii) decode the hidden state sequence. We describe finite Markov chain imbedding (FMCI) and hybrid decoding to solve each of these two tasks.
