ABSTRACT Drought limits the productivity of fast‐growing woody crops, although the metabolic adjustments conferring water stress tolerance remain poorly understood. We investigated the responses of Populus nigra seedlings to water stress by integrating daily physiological measurements and NMR metabolomic analyses.

De‐Coupled Water and Nitrogen Translocation From Subsoil to Canopy of Temperate Forest Trees
ABSTRACT Water and nitrogen (N) transport from soil to canopy play a central role in tree functioning, yet direct evidence for their timing and coupling in mature forests remains scarce. We report results from a paired dual‐isotope (2H, 15N) tracer experiment in a temperate forest, comparing water and nitrate uptake patterns across tree species ...

Circular RNAs in Lotus japonicus Responses to Nutrient Supply and Mesorhizobium Symbiosis
ABSTRACT Symbiotic interactions between legumes and rhizobia enable nitrogen fixation under low nutrient conditions. The establishment and function of symbiotic interactions require coordinated changes in gene expression in both the host and the microbe. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous gene‐specific molecules that can regulate transcription and

Calcium and Nitrogen Availability Controls Root Exudation in Hydroponically Cultured Barley
ABSTRACT Root exudation is a key component of plant‐rhizosphere interactome. It is increasingly evident that root exudates influence rhizospheric microbial communities and in turn can benefit plants through improved resource allocation. However, how suboptimal nutrient availability relates to control of root exudation is poorly understood.

Vestigial Plastids in Parasitic Plants: Evolutionary Remnants or Adaptive Innovations?
ABSTRACT Throughout the evolutionary history of plants, chloroplasts originating from a cyanobacterial endosymbiosis have undergone remarkable adaptation and specialization, giving rise to a multitude of plastid types. The evolution toward parasitism in plants represents a particularly extreme case of such specialization.
