Gcorn Plant: A Database for Retrieving Functional and Evolutionary Traits of Plant Genes [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2019
Gene homology helps us understand gene function and speciation. The number of plant genes and species registered in public databanks is continuously increasing. It is useful to associate homologous genes of various plants to better understand plant speciation.

Joint multivariate and functional modeling for plant traits and reflectances

Environmental and Ecological Statistics, 2023
The investigation of leaf-level traits in response to varying environmental conditions has immense importance for understanding plant ecology. Remote sensing technology enables measurement of the reflectance of plants to make inferences about underlying traits along environmental gradients.

Integrating gene expression analysis and ecophysiological responses to water deficit in leaves of tomato plants

Scientific Reports
Soil water deficit (WD) significantly impacts plant survival and crop yields. Many gaps remain in our understanding of the synergistic coordination between molecular and ecophysiological responses delaying substantial drought-induced effects on plant ...

Partitioning and integrating of plant traits and phylogeny in assessing diversity along secondary forest succession in Loess Plateau of China

Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Assessing plant diversity during community succession based on plant trait and phylogenetic features within a community (alpha scale) and among communities (beta scale) could improve our understanding of community succession mechanism.

Seeing the forest for the genes: using metagenomics to infer the aggregated traits of microbial communities

, 2014
Most environments harbor large numbers of microbial taxa with ecologies that remain poorly described and characterizing the functional capabilities of whole communities remains a key challenge in microbial ecology.

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Plant morphological traits and ecological stoichiometry in disturbed vs. conserved forests [PDF]

PeerJ
Global forests are currently facing significant anthropogenic disturbances. Previous research on plant functional traits has predominantly focused on relatively intact forests, often overlooking those that have experienced such disturbances.
