Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Leaves are enormously diverse in their size and venation architecture, both of which are core determinants of plant adaptation to environments. Leaf size is an important determinant of leaf function and ecological strategy, while leaf venation, the main structure for support and transport, determines the growth, development, and performance of a leaf ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Heterophylly is an adaptive strategy used by some plants in response to environmental changes. Due to the lack of representative plants with typical heteromorphic leaves, little is known about the genetic architecture of heterophylly in plants and the ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

A comprehensive illustrated protocol for clearing, mounting, and imaging leaf venation networks
Applications in Plant SciencesPremise Leaf venation network architecture can provide insights into plant evolution, ecology, and physiology. Venation networks are typically assessed through histological methods, but existing protocols provide limited guidance on processing large or ...

Dryland wheat domestication changed the development of aboveground architecture for a well-structured canopy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 We examined three different-ploidy wheat species to elucidate the development of aboveground architecture and its domesticated mechanism under environment-controlled field conditions.
