Assembly of the precursor and processed light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein of Lemna into the light-harvesting complex II of barley etiochloroplasts. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
When the in vitro synthesized precursor of a light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b binding protein (LHCP) from Lemna gibba is imported into barley etiochloroplasts, it is processed to a single form.

Decoding plant defense signaling using the defenseless mutant

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Can plants live without defenses? Mutant analysis in Arabidopsis thaliana has identified numerous regulators of biotic, abiotic, and hormone‐based defenses, but the redundancy among separate defense pathways remains unexplored. We constructed an Arabidopsis mutant, defenseless, lacking six canonical defense pathways using abi1‐1 (abscisic acid),

Circular RNA Vv‐circCOR27 modulates thermotolerance through attenuating VvHSP90.2b‐VvHsfA7a interaction in grapevine

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are single‐stranded, covalently closed RNA molecules that arise from exon back‐splicing. The identification and function investigation of circRNAs have been comprehensively explored in plants, however, the regulatory mechanisms are largely unknown.

The unicellular green microalga Botryosphaerella sudetica links plant‐like light protection with an algal lifestyle

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) mechanisms fine‐tune light utilisation in the photosynthetic antenna, for example, in response to excess light, to prevent photodamage. NPQ comprises distinct mechanisms, all contributing to photoprotection but acting on different time scales.

Weighing the options: a test of alternative stomatal optimisation models at high temperatures

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Stomatal optimisation models centre upon a fundamental tradeoff for plants: opening stomata promotes carbon uptake, but closing stomata prevents water loss. However, stomatal opening can occur at high temperatures, causing evaporative cooling which limits thermal damage to leaves.

Spectral signatures of photosynthesis II: coevolution with other stars and the atmosphere on extrasolar worlds

open access: yes, 2007
As photosynthesis on Earth produces the primary signatures of life that can be detected astronomically at the global scale, a strong focus of the search for extrasolar life will be photosynthesis, particularly photosynthesis that has evolved with a ...

Fascinating single‐cell red algae: models for evolution and adaptation

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary The unicellular red algae, Cyanidiophyceae, that diverged early during Archaeplastida (algal and plant) evolution, occupy a variety of extreme habitats that are inhospitable for most other eukaryotes. With the use of modern genomics and genetics methods, Cyanidiophyceae show a remarkable taxonomic diversity, share haplodiplophasic life cycles ...

Metacaspases contribute to the cellular response to heat stress in a marine diatom

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Climate‐driven marine heatwaves (HW) are extreme, large‐scale events characterized by elevated ocean temperatures lasting from days to months. Despite their importance, little is known about the molecular mechanisms of algal response to marine HW. Recent studies suggest that metacaspases play an important role in thermotolerance.
