Contemporary hybridization among Arabis floodplain species creates opportunities for adaptation

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1542-1557, February 2026.
Summary Hybridization between closely related species is increasingly recognized as a major source of biodiversity. Yet, whether it can create advantageous trait combinations while purging harmful alleles remains unknown. To address this question, we studied Arabis nemorensis and Arabis sagittata, two endangered species that currently hybridize in a ...

Calcium signaling in crops

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1644-1658, February 2026.
Summary Calcium (Ca2+) signaling is integral to nearly all aspects of plant biology, including development and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. It operates through two main layers: the generation of Ca2+ signals and their decoding by Ca2+‐binding proteins, which act early in diverse signaling pathways. The system exhibits remarkable robustness

Genetic Gains in Durum Wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum) Across the Globe: Yield, Quality and Adapting for Variable Weather Patterns

Plant Breeding, Volume 145, Issue 1, Page 142-165, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum [Desf.] Husnot) is cultivated globally and used to produce pasta, couscous, bulgur and other semolina products. With the growing world population and increasing food demand, it is pertinent to understand past trends in global food production to shape future endeavours.

The Dark Side of Stress Response: Night Temperature Regimes Drive Distinct Abiotic Pathways in Legumes

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 925-939, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Global warming increases night temperatures more strongly than day temperatures. Recent evidence indicates that the effect of night temperature on plant physiology is independent of daytime conditions, suggesting distinct stress tolerance mechanisms.

A selective breeding design based on parental rapid heat stress thresholds did not produce more heat‐tolerant coral larvae

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January/March 2026.
Coral broodstock were phenotyped using a rapid heat stress assay and ranked according to their performance (photochemical efficiency). Selectively breeding the broodstock based on their performance did not produce larvae with enhanced heat tolerance. Created in BioRender. Lamb, A. (2025) https://BioRender.com/zcgk0g6.

The Genetic Wiring of Plant Trichomes: From Initiation to Fate Specification

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
Plant trichomes are not just simple hairs but metabolic powerhouses shaped by complex genetic programs. While the MYB‐bHLH‐WD40 module is well studied in Arabidopsis, recent findings reveal that HD‐Zip IV transcription factors drive multicellular and glandular trichome development through dose‐dependent mechanisms.
