Phenotypic plasticity is broadly adaptive across an elevation gradient in the Cutleaf Monkeyflower

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Leaf shape plasticity expression is variable in Mimulus laciniatus. Summary Phenotypic plasticity is a key mechanism by which organisms cope with environmental heterogeneity, but its evolutionary consequences depend on how plastic responses align with the broader adaptive landscape.

Natural Products to Control Postharvest Gray Mold of Tomato Fruit- Possible Mechanisms

Journal of Plant Pathology & Microbiology, 2016
Grey mold is the one of most important postharvest disease of tomato fruit worldwide. Treatments with edible, natural products are needed to reduce losses and contribute to food sustainability. Based on the hypothesis that inhibition of Botrytis spore germination will significantly reduce postharvest losses, botanicals were tested for their effects on ...

Drought and salinity stress remodel Asian rice (Oryza sativa) leaf development through cell‐type‐specific regulatory programs

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Osmotic stressors induce developmental and physiological changes in rice (Oryza sativa) seedlings, which are modulated by cell‐type‐specific gene expression and regulatory networks. We exposed plants to two levels of drought and salinity stress and measured the effects of these stressors on developing leaves by measuring physiological traits, ion ...

Are novel and co‐xenic associations common in alien fungal and fungus‐like plant pathogens?

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Possible scenarios for plant–pathogen associations during invasion. An introduced plant may occur in a new area without its pathogen (enemy release) or together with its pathogen (co‐introduction). The presence of the alien plant (in red) and its co‐introduced pathogen (in dark red) can result in pathogen spillover to co‐occurring plants. Host jumps to

The miR167–ARF8 module coordinates stamen–pistil development and fruit set in tomato

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
SlMIR167a is the functionally prominent SlMIR167 gene in tomato fruit development. Summary Auxin is an important regulator of reproductive development. The families of the AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR (ARF) genes, important components of the auxin signal, have expanded in flowering plants.

A factorial multi‐layer analysis reveals non‐additive sulfur–iron interactions shaping metabolic and transcriptional responses in durum wheat

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Working model of S‐dependent Fe stress integration in durum wheat. S availability acts as the main factor defining the metabolic and transcriptional state of the plant, whereas Fe mainly affects the intensity of these responses. This is particularly evident for OAS, methionine, citrate and asparagine, which accumulated most strongly under combined S ...

The combination of morphogenic regulators BABY BOOM and GRF‐GIF improves maize transformation efficiency and promotes leaf regeneration

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Maize regeneration via somatic embryogenesis by ectopic expression of morphogenic factors TaGRF4‐TaGIF1 and ZmBBM. Summary Transformation is an indispensable tool for plant genetics and functional genomics. Although stable transformation in maize is no longer a major obstacle, there remains a need for accessible and efficient methods for academic ...
