Separating Myths From Facts About Bread and Health
ABSTRACT White bread remains a staple food in many countries and global consumption continues to increase. However, there is an increasingly contentious debate, carried out particularly in social media and the popular press, about the adverse effects on health of factory‐produced sliced white bread as opposed to the whole grain breads made with ...

Summary In plants, multiple cell types contribute to immunity, but what division of labor exists among cell types when immunity is activated? We compared, at single‐cell resolution, the response of Arabidopsis thaliana leaf cells during pattern‐triggered and effector‐triggered immunity (PTI/ETI), sampled at 3 and 5 h after infection with Pseudomonas ...

Rhizobial motility preference in root colonization of Medicago truncatula
Summary Tunnel‐like infection thread (IT) structures support root colonization by symbiotic nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia bacteria in most legume species. These tip‐grown structures are key to directing rhizobia from root hairs to developing nodules, where they are hosted to fix nitrogen.

Reduced snow cover at the alpine treeline: resistance and recovery of saplings
Summary At high elevations, tree saplings and shrubs are usually protected by mid‐winter snow cover, although climate change is expected to extend the snow‐free (SF) period. Exposure to winter drought, freeze–thaw events and freezing temperatures will therefore increase, inducing damages to the hydraulic system and to living cells, resulting in reduced

Cell wall water shields stomata against falling leaf airspace humidity
Summary Plants lose water by transpiration through stomatal pores. However, it remains a matter of debate whether relative humidity (RH) in the substomatal cavity may fall below saturation and guard cells experience strong differences water potential driven by RH in the cavity.

Quiescin Sulfhydryl Oxidase‐Like 1 Positively Regulates Seed Dormancy in Rice
ABSTRACT Seed dormancy is an adaptive strategy that enables plants to survive adverse environmental conditions. In agricultural contexts, an optimal level of dormancy is essential: Insufficient dormancy can result in preharvest sprouting, while excessive dormancy may lead to uneven germination and poor stand establishment in subsequent crops.

ABSTRACT Plant glandular trichomes (GTs) are characterised by their ability to synthesise and store abundant secondary metabolites of significant biological importance. The medicinal plant Artemisia argyi exhibits a dense covering of GTs, yet the precise metabolic compositions and the developmental molecular dynamics of A.

ABSTRACT Phosphorus is indispensable in agricultural production. The growing global demand for food necessitates the development of crops with enhanced phosphorus utilisation efficiency. However, the molecular mechanisms coordinating phosphorus utilisation efficiency in plants remain incompletely characterised.
