The evolution of RHO of plant (ROP) proteins and their morphogenetic functions

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 2, Page 542-548, October 2025.
Summary The ability of a cell to polarise, and direct cell growth or orient cell division, for example, is fundamental for the morphogenesis of multicellular organisms. A key molecular system for signalling cell polarity in diverse eukaryotes involves the RHO family of small GTPases.

“Shape of Cell”—An Auxin and Cell Wall Duet

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Understanding the mechanisms underlying cell shape acquisition is of fundamental importance in plant science, as this process ultimately defines the structure and function of plant organs. Plants produce cells of diverse shapes and sizes, including pavement cells and stomata of leaves, elongated epidermal cells of the hypocotyl, and cells with

GROWTH AND PHYSIOLOYCAL CHARACTERIZATION OF Coleus amboinicus Lour EX VITRO RESULTS OF POLYPLOID INDUCTION

Jurnal Agrotek Tropika
Torbangun (Coleus amboinicus L.) is a local Indonesian medicinal plant traditionally used to promote breast milk (ASI) production. However, its propagation is limited because flowering is inhibited under unfavorable climatic conditions, and vegetative ...

Reassessing Drought Tolerance in Citrus Tetraploid Rootstocks: Myth or Reality?

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
Abstract Polyploidy, particularly tetraploidy, has emerged as a promising tool in citrus rootstock breeding due to its potential to enhance drought tolerance. This review examines the role of tetraploid rootstocks in drought resilience, focusing on molecular and physiological adaptations observed in controlled environments and field conditions ...

Fifteen years of findings: Advancements in spring dead spot research from 2009 to 2024

Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
Abstract Spring dead spot (Ophiosphaerella spp.; SDS) is one of the most detrimental diseases to warm‐season turfgrasses, particularly bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.), growing in climates where cold temperatures induce dormancy. The pathogen can infect the crowns, stolons, rhizomes, and roots of bermudagrass most of the year, but infection in the fall ...

Herbicidal interference: glyphosate drives both the ecology and evolution of plant–herbivore interactions

New Phytologist, Volume 245, Issue 2, Page 807-817, January 2025.
Summary The coevolution of plants and their insect herbivores reflects eco‐evolutionary dynamics at work – ecological interactions influence adaptive traits, which feed back to shape the broader ecological community. However, novel anthropogenic stressors like herbicide, which are strong selective agents, can disrupt these dynamics.

Evaluation of oryzalin-induced putative polyploids of Jasminum sambac cv. Ramanathapuram Gundumalli

Journal of Horticultural Sciences
The aim of the research was to create genetic variations in Jasminum sambac using oryzalin as a polyploidizing agent. Rooted stem cuttings of J. sambac were treated with oryzalin (0.005, 0.01 and 0.05%) and their vegetative and flowering parameters were

Perceptions of plant breeding methods–from ‘phenotypic selection’ to ‘genetic modification’ and ‘new breeding technologies’

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 67, Issue 6, Page 621-669, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Plant breeding has been closely aligned with the development of civilisations and continues to be important for the supply of nutritious food and a key factor in reducing poverty and hunger. Plant breeding uses a range of techniques for both expanding and exploiting the genetic potential of plants.
