We present the most densely sampled phylogeny of Carex section Lupulinae to date (107 specimens) and describe herein a new cryptic species for science from the southern United States, which is locally abundant and found in well‐explored and densely populated areas. Combining DNA sequences with morphometric data obtained from 299 samples, we Demonstrate

DEVELOPMENT OF AN EFFICIENT METHOD FOR in vitro GERMINATION OF SORGHUM POLLEN
The in vitro pollen germination of sorghum is useful in viability, physiology and genetic transformation studies of pollen. However, the media reported are not efficient.

Summary Herbarium specimens are widely distributed in space and time, thereby capturing diverse conditions. We reconstructed specimen ‘lived’ climate from knowledge of germination cues and collection dates for 14 annual species in the Streptanthus (s.l.) clade (Brassicaceae) to ask: which climate attributes best explain specimen phenological stage and ...

Samplify: a versatile tool for image‐based segmentation and annotation of seed abortion phenotypes
Summary Automated seed phenotyping has wide applications in research and agriculture and relies on easy‐to‐use platforms and pipelines. Seed phenotyping in the model species Arabidopsis thaliana poses a significant challenge due to the large number of tiny seeds produced by individual plants, which are difficult to manually separate and count.

Evolution of crop phenotypic spaces through domestication
Summary We used domestication as an in vivo replicated experiment to investigate how divergent selection has shaped the evolution of multivariate phenotypic spaces. We measured 11–57 qualitative and quantitative traits in 13 species, either unique or shared between species, and established a framework for cross‐species comparisons. Our results revealed

AGP and EXO‐LIKE genes promote brassinosteroid‐dependent anisotropic growth
Summary The brassinosteroid pathway promotes anisotropic cell expansion; however, the effectors in this process remain unclear. Candidates include ARABINOGALACTAN PROTEIN (AGP) genes, which are prominent brassinosteroid‐responsive transcriptional targets, and EXORDIUM (EXO)‐LIKE (EXL) genes.
