Ethylene-triggered subcellular trafficking of CTR1 enhances the response to ethylene gas

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Park et al. show that upon exposure to ethylene gas, CTR1, which normally has a negative effect on ethylene signaling, translocates into the nucleus and enhances the plant’s response to ethylene by stabilizing the EIN3 transcription factor.

Toward a Molecular Understanding of Plant Hormone Actions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Plants rely on a diverse set of small-molecule hormones to regulate every aspect of their biological processes including development, growth, and adaptation. Since the discovery of the first plant hormone, auxin, hormones have always been at the frontier

Auto‐Downregulation of the Florigen FT Production Prevents Precocious Flowering in Plants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that the leaf vein‐expressed FD complexes with the florigen FT to bind DNA motifs in FT promoter, which antagonizes CONSTANS‐mediated FT activation to feedback down‐regulate FT expression. This prevents an excessive induction of FT expression by inductive photoperiods, thereby precluding precocious transition to flowering in ...

Extinction Risk Assessment of the Greek Endemic Flora

open access: yesBiology, 2021
Human-induced biodiversity decline has been on the rise for the past 250 years, due to various causes. What is equally troubling, is that we are unaware which plants are threatened and where they occur.

RNAi in the Rhizarian Phytopathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae: The Causal Agent of Clubroot Disease in Cruciferous Crops

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers an unusual RNAi pathway in the rhizarian pathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae. In the absence of Dicer, a Drosha‐like RNase III protein supports the biogenesis of predominant 21‐nt small RNAs, and two Argonaute proteins mediate small RNA‐guided silencing.

Origins of stomatal mechanics in grasses

open access: yesNature Communications
Grass stomata are unique in having dumbbell-shaped guard cell anatomy, but the evolutionary context that led to this dramatic anatomical change remains elusive.

The Mind From Within: Visceral Roots of Human Cognition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The physiological activity of visceral organs, such as the heart, the lungs, and the gut, is surprisingly linked to many sophisticated mental operations, such as remembering the past, being aware of ourselves, making choices, and forging social bonds.

Revisiting plant hardiness zones to include multiple climatic stress dimensions

open access: yesiScience
Summary: A tradition exists for delineating “hardiness zones” for important plants in horticulture and agriculture. However, these zones are typically based on surviving cold winter conditions, disregarding other stressors. Factors such as the effects of

Anterograde signaling controls plastid transcription via sigma factors separately from nuclear photosynthesis genes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Photoreceptors in the nucleus control plastid transcription by utilizing sigma factors as nucleus-to-plastid signals in parallel with the light regulation of nuclear photosynthesis genes.
