Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The escalating global temperatures and intensifying heat stress events pose significant threats to maize productivity worldwide. Uncovering key thermotolerance genes and their functional mechanisms is thus critical for developing climate‐resilient crops.

Effects of Alternaria alternata f.sp. lycopersici toxins on pollen [PDF]
, 1988 Effects of the phytotoxic compounds (AAL-toxins) isolated from cell-free culture filtrates of Alternaria alternata f.sp. lycopersici on in vitro pollen development were studied. AAL-toxins inhibited both germination and tube growth of pollen from several

The tasiR‐ARF pathway in plants: origin, functions, and interplay of miR‐390, tasiRNAs and ARF3
Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 328-344, March 2026.Trans‐acting small interfering RNAs that silence a subset of Auxin Response Factors are crucial for plant growth, developmental timing, proper organ patterning, and coping with stress. Abstract Trans‐acting small interfering RNA (tasiRNAs) are a special type of endogenous small RNAs (sRNAs) found only in plants.

Pollination and plant reproduction in the Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 74-105, February 2026.ABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is a continental‐wide biodiversity hotspot and the most species‐rich savanna ecosystem in the world. The main aspect characterising this biodiversity is that the landscape is arranged as an intricate mosaic of different plant formations, including grasslands, savannas, and forests, each harbouring distinct but ...

Sex‐specific ethylene responses drive floral sexual plasticity in Cannabis sativa
The Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 3, February 2026.SUMMARY Cannabis sativa L. exhibits pronounced sexual plasticity in which both XX and XY plants can undergo floral phenotypic sex reversal in response to ethylene modulation, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly defined. Here, we present the most extensive multi‐omic analysis of ethylene‐induced sex change in C.
