Single‐Cell CRISPR: An Efficient Strategy for Decoding Plant Cis‐Regulatory Complexity

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The generation of complex traits involves the coordinated interplay of multiple gene networks. Elucidating the function of transcriptional cis‐regulatory elements (CREs) in regulating gene expression is crucial for understanding complex regulatory pathways and improving our ability to modify macro‐phenotypes.

Selective leaf surface defenses: trichomes trap herbivorous leafminers but spare parasitoid wasps

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 4016-4025, April 2026.
Hooked trichomes on kidney bean leaves selectively entrap leafminer flies but rarely affect parasitoid wasps. This morphological barrier enables pest suppression with minimal impact on beneficial insects, offering insights for breeding pest‐resistant cultivars compatible with biological control. Abstract BACKGROUND Leafminers [e.g., Liriomyza trifolii (
