Somatic genome‐doubling is the most parsimonious route to allopolyploidy

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2845-2851, June 2026.
Summary The origin of a polyploid can hinge on a single errant cell division, a mistake in the cell cycle that leads to genome‐doubling and re‐writes the rules of chromosome pairing and segregation. In plants, the evolutionary significance of these errors is magnified by lack of an early sequestered germline, meaning somatic mutations can be heritable.

C4 photosynthetic anatomy is associated with higher leaf hydraulic conductance and capacitance in Alloteropsis semialata

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 3687-3700, June 2026.
Bulk leaf capacitance (Cbulk) in relation to bundle sheath area (BSA) and leaf dimensions in Alloteropsis semialata plants differing in photosynthetic type (C3, C3–C4 or C4) and ploidy level (2x, 6x or 12x). Summary The evolution of C4 photosynthesis requires biochemical innovations to be coordinated with anatomical modifications.

Random Mutagenesis in Porphyromonas gingivalis Enables Isolation of Mutants With Enhanced Secreted Protease Activity

Molecular Oral Microbiology, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 158-164, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Porphyromonas gingivalis is a key pathogen in periodontitis, with secreted proteases as major virulence factors. We developed a screening method to generate and identify P. gingivalis mutants with elevated protease activity. Mutations were induced using the mutagens 2,6‐diaminopurine (2,6‐DAP) or ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS), and the ...

PlantCTCIP: Chromatin Interaction Prediction Using Convolutional Neural Network and Transformer in Plants

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3634-3655, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Chromatin interactions establish spatial proximity between distant regulatory elements and their target genes, significantly influencing gene expression, and phenotypic traits. In this study, we present a plant chromatin interaction prediction model called PlantCTCIP based on Convolutional Neural Networks and Transformer.

Chromosome‐Level Genome Assembly of the Allotetraploid Gynostemma pentaphyllum Provides Novel Insights Into the Biosynthesis of Ginsenoside and Gypenoside LVI

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4204-4220, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Gynostemma pentaphyllum, a herb used in tea and traditional Chinese medicine, shows geographic variation in its production of valuable dammarane‐type ginsenosides and gypenoside LVI between populations from Suining (SN) and Nanning (NN). To elucidate the mechanisms underlying this differential metabolite accumulation, a chromosome‐level genome
