Combining phenotypic, physiological, and multi‐omics studies to provide new insights on the role of 2,4‐epibrassinolide in regulation of seed shattering in Elymus sibiricus L.

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Seed shattering limits the production of Elymus sibiricus L., and application of exogenous brassinosteroid significantly alleviates plant organ abscission. Methods To explore the potential regulatory network of brassinosteroid on seed shattering, the abscission zone of E. sibiricus cv. Lanyu No.

The plant microbiome: From ecological foundations to precision microbial engineering for sustainable agriculture

iMeta, EarlyView.
From ecological principles to precision engineering of plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture. The plant holobiont integrates diverse microbial niches (including rhizosphere, endosphere, phyllosphere, seed, and aerial‐root mucilagesphere), host genetics (namely M genes), and host metabolites. Furthermore, molecular dialogues, including rhizobial

Spatio-temporal variation in pollen collected by honey bees (Apis mellifera) in rural-urban mosaic landscapes in Northern Europe.

PLoS ONE
Pollen is a source of protein, lipids, vitamins and minerals for bees and other flower-visiting insects. The composition of macro- and micronutrients of pollen vary among different plant species.

Two near‐complete assemblies reveal R‐subgenome structural and centromeric divergence associated with reproductive isolation in hexaploid triticale

iMeta, EarlyView.
We present two near‐complete triticale genome assemblies and perform pan‐centromere analyses across >200 haplotypes from parental species, synthetic allopolyploids, cultivars, and 337 resequenced accessions, revealing a shared chromatin framework underlying functional centromeres in all three subgenomes, where wheat‐ and rye‐derived CENH3 co‐occupy ...

Dietary fiber‐based oral nanovaccine promotes gut‐to‐nose trafficking of regulatory cells and drives antigen‐specific tolerance to relieve airway allergy

iMeta, EarlyView.
Current therapies for allergic rhinitis primarily provide symptomatic relief but fail to establish durable antigen‐specific immune tolerance. Here, we developed an oral nano‐dietary fiber (NDF) platform that integrates allergen delivery with microbiota‐driven immunomodulation, using dextran as both an antigen carrier and a fermentable substrate for ...

Drought Risk in Mango and Avocado Orchards: Insights Into Plant Water Relations and Irrigation‐Related Agronomic Solutions

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is making water availability more uncertain, with growing consequences for the productivity and long‐term sustainability of tropical and subtropical fruit orchards. Mangifera indica L. and Persea americana Mill. both require large amounts of water to sustain growth and productivity.

Honey Bees Reduce Pollen Viability While Foraging

Insects
Pollen acts as both a gametophyte for plant reproduction and a vital nutrient source for bees. Adult honey bees (Apis mellifera) mix pollen with nectar, enzymes, and microbes to create ‘bee bread’, diverting pollen from plant reproduction and re ...

Heatwaves exacerbate pollen limitation through reductions in pollen production and pollen vigour

AoB PLANTS
Abstract Increasingly frequent heat waves threaten the reproduction of flowering plants; compromising the future persistence, adaptive capacity, and dispersal of wild plant populations, and also the yield of fruit-bearing crop plants. Heat damages the development of sensitive floral organs and gametes, which inhibits pollen germination ...

Pollen Morphology of Crucianella L. (Rubiaceae) Based on Light and Scanning Electron Microscope Data and Implications for Taxonomy

Microscopy Research and Technique, EarlyView.
This study provides the palynological analysis of 12 Crucianella L. taxa using LM and SEM. Variations in pollen size, aperture number, and exine ornamentation were identified as key traits, demonstrating their taxonomic value for distinguishing closely related species and subspecies within the genus. ABSTRACT Crucianella L.
