RNA‐Seq analysis revealed differentially expressed genes linked to seed size variation in sainfoin

Grassland Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Sainfoin is a perennial forage legume with many desirable characteristics such as easy to establish, bloat‐free trait for grazing ruminants and providing pollinator habitat and biological nitrogen fixation to soil. However, adoption of this species is often hindered by high seed cost associated with its larger seed size compared to other ...

Bee community and trait‐based responses to fire in a Mediterranean landscape

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Fire drives a short‐term increase in bee abundance and diversity, despite its strong negative impact on floral resources. Acting as an environmental filter, fire shapes bee communities as increased post‐fire fine‐scale heterogeneity favors bees with specific functional traits such as ground‐nesting and generalist species.

Dose‐Dependent Effect of Plant Volatiles on the Oviposition Preference of the Corn Leafhopper Dalbulus maidis

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays L.) is a major annual crop cultivated worldwide. In the Americas, the corn leafhopper Dalbulus maidis (DeLong) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) is a key pest of this crop, causing direct damage to plants through phloem feeding and indirect damage by transmitting phytopathogens.

Biogenic retrograde signaling via GUN1 ensures thermotolerant chloroplast biogenesis during seedling establishment in Arabidopsis thaliana

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Under heat stress, GENOMES UNCOUPLED1 (GUN1) is crucial for the formation of functional chloroplasts in seedlings under heat stress. Without GUN1, chloroplast development fails and seedlings fail to turn green. Therefore, GUN1 helps relay heat‐related cues to maintain chloroplast biogenesis and support thermotolerance during early growth.

Salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes: Development, physiological functions, and prospects for improving crop salt tolerance

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review examines salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes, in which epidermal stem cells differentiate into unicellular, bicellular, or multicellular salt glands. Salt ions are transported to the leaves via the transpiration stream and enter salt glands through symplastic and apoplastic pathways. Finally, salt glands actively secrete salt ions from the
