Tracking Sodium Inside the Plant: Hydraulic Adjustments to Deal With Salinity
Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 6, November 2026.ABSTRACT Sorghum is a crop that has become more relevant in recent years due to its uses and properties (biofuel, gluten‐free flour) as well as its versatility to grow in unfavourable environmental conditions. Salinity is one of the main abiotic stresses affecting crop production and yield worldwide.

Root Plasticity and Hormonal Regulation Shape Alfalfa Cultivar Responses to Drought and Waterlogging
Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 6, November 2026.ABSTRACT Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is a globally strategic forage legume whose productivity is increasingly threatened by climatic variability, particularly recurrent drought and flooding events. Although both stresses disrupt plant water balance, they impose contrasting physiological constraints that require distinct adaptive strategies.

New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 3, Page 1166-1180, November 2026.Inflorescence/floret phenotypes of tweaky spike (tw) barley (Hordeum vulgare) mutants and their respective WT backgrounds. Summary Mutant‐based research is a cornerstone for elucidating gene function in barley (Hordeum vulgare) and other cereals. In this study, we exploited a unique collection of barley tweaky spike (tw) mutants to identify the locus ...

New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 4, Page 1526-1544, November 2026.Proposed model of ZmSPL12‐mediated drought resistance through auxin regulation. Summary Climate change‐induced drought increasingly threatens global maize production. Drought‐adaptive root plasticity in maize depends on auxin signaling, yet how auxin homeostasis is dynamically tuned in response to water deficit remains unclear.

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 7997-8013, November 2026.ABSTRACT Isoprene is the most abundant biogenic volatile organic compound emitted by terrestrial vegetation. Here we report the impact of isoprene on root‐associated microbiomes. Using isoprene‐emitting (IE) transgenic tobacco and isogenic non‐emitting (NE) controls, we performed co‐cultivation experiments in natural soil and analysed plant phenotypes ...

Trichomes in Plant Defence, Development and Metabolic Integration Under Environmental Stress
Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 8437-8453, November 2026.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 ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 9085-9100, November 2026.ABSTRACT Phosphorus (P) acquisition and leaf P‐use strategies are critical for reproductive success and productivity, yet, their developmental association during the reproductive phase remains unclear. Five chickpea accessions contrasting in P‐remobilisation efficiency (PRE) were grown in a temperature‐controlled glasshouse under moderate P deficiency.

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 55, 5 October 2026.Single‐cell transcriptomics of soybean roots soon after rhizobial inoculation reveals epidermal and cortical cell‐specific programs and gene‐regulatory networks acting in symbiosis establishment. We identify an ethylene‐driven regulatory circuit involving WRKY6.3/6.4 transcription factors targeting select Nod19 genes that promotes infection‐thread ...

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 56, 9 October 2026.A cytokinin pathway transcription factor, RR2b, was artificially selected during soybean domestication and improvement based on its differential transcriptional activity, which correlates with ATT repeat polymorphisms in its promoter. RR2b balances yield and defense by fine‐tuning its expression level and offers a promising target for decoupling trade ...
