Large investment of stored nitrogen and phosphorus in female cones is consistent with infrequent reproduction events of Pinus koraiensis, a high value woody oil crop in Northeast Asia

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Pinus koraiensis is famous for its high-quality timber production all the way and is much more famous for its high value health-care nut oil production potential since 1990’s, but the less understanding of its reproduction biology seriously hindered its ...

Identification of an innexin required for termination of the asexual state in planarian reproductive switching.

PLoS Genetics
Many metazoans switch between asexual and sexual reproduction based on environmental changes, life cycle phases, or both. This reproductive strategy enables them to benefit from the features of both reproductive modes. In general, asexual reproduction is

Telomere‐to‐Telomere Genomes Reveal that Multiscale Evolution Shapes the Largest Metabolic Arsenal of Diaporthe Fungi

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents the first telomere‐to‐telomere genomes and population resources for Diaporthe pathogens, uncovering the largest known fungal repertoire of secondary metabolite gene clusters. Structural variations and horizontal gene transfer drive cluster diversification, while specific rapidly evolving clusters control virulence, offering novel ...

PHENOMENON OF FLORAL REVERSION IN BOLTING GARLIC (Allium sativum L.)

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2018
In this study, we present investigations of morphological changes in the inflorescence of bolting Allium sativum L., which forms umbel-like inflorescences with small, inconspicuous flowers, bulbils, and leaf-like membranous bracts.

Beyond EICA : understanding post-establishment evolution requires a broader evaluation of potential selection pressures [PDF]

, 2011
Research on post-establishment evolution in nonnative plant populations has focused almost exclusively on testing the Evolution of Increased Competitive Ability (EICA) hypothesis, which posits that the lack of specialized herbivores in the invaded range ...

BLADE‐ON‐PETIOLE Genes Enable Genetic Bottleneck Mitigation Through Cross‐Species Repurposing of Floral Persistence Traits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that BLADE‐ON‐PETIOLE (BOP) proteins regulate floral abscission and senescence in tomato by interacting with TFAM1 to form transcriptional condensates controlling the ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA HOMEOBOX GENE 1 (ATH1)‐mediated abscission pathway.

WUSCHEL Transcription Factor: From Stem Cell Maintenance to Crop Improvement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes emerging insights into WUSCHEL (WUS) as a central regulator of plant stem cell fate beyond Arabidopsis, highlighting its roles in regeneration, somatic embryogenesis (SE), and stress adaptation across crops. It explores how WUS‐centered regulatory networks, genome editing, and AI‐guided strategies can be leveraged for precise ...
