The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend TMEM16A plays a pivotal role in setting the duration of the action potential plateau in human uterine smooth muscle. An increase in TMEM16A expression in labour underpins a lengthening of the plateau and this provides time for the contraction to become larger and longer, important for timely successful labour.

MaizeEar‐SAM: Zero‐shot maize ear phenotyping
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Quantifying the variation in yield component traits of maize (Zea mays L.), which collectively determine the overall productivity of this globally significant crop, is critical to plant genetics research, plant breeding, and the development of improved agronomic practices.

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 10, Page 2656-2697, October 2026.Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 5, October 2026.The role and use of Epichloë fungal endophytes in grazed temperate grass pastures and turf grasses are now well understood with regard to balancing pasture persistence while minimising animal health and welfare concerns. However, this understanding has only emerged since the early 1980s. Prior to this, although links between Epichloë endophytes, animal

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 13, Page 7775-7783, October 2026.Abstract BACKGROUND Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) from the Brazilian Amazon plays an important role in national production. While most cocoa is cultivated in upland systems, floodplain ecosystems represent a traditional and distinct production environment that may influence bean composition and quality.

Graft Biology in the CRISPR Era: From Tissue Fusion to Genome Compatibility
Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.ABSTRACT Plant lineage has traditionally constrained grafting compatibility, with monocots generally considered incompatible because of their dispersed vascular bundles and limited secondary growth. Recent studies have shown that embryonic grafting can establish successful graft unions in selected monocot systems by exploiting early developmental ...

Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 1002-1017, October 2026.ABSTRACT While body size is the primary driver of fecundity, other factors may contribute to variation in these relationships. Anadromous populations of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) have diverse life histories, and fisheries management relies on accurate fecundity estimates.

New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 2, Page 829-842, October 2026.Cuscuta reflexa infection sites. Summary Cuscuta species are holoparasitic plants that penetrate host stems with haustoria, connect to the vasculature and exhaust water, nutrients and carbohydrates. Parasite seedlings possess only limited maternal reserves and the development of a vascular connection takes several days.

Phenotyping cotton ovule fibre initiation with spatial statistics
, 2007 Yield in cultivated cotton (Gossypium spp.) is affected by the number and distribution of fibres initiated on the seed surface but, apart from simple statistical summaries, little has been done to assess this phenotype quantitatively.

The miR167–ARF8 module coordinates stamen–pistil development and fruit set in tomato
New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 2, Page 647-665, October 2026.SlMIR167a is the functionally prominent SlMIR167 gene in tomato fruit development. Summary Auxin is an important regulator of reproductive development. The families of the AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR (ARF) genes, important components of the auxin signal, have expanded in flowering plants.
