Root hair plasticity in cereals under abiotic stress
An integrative perspective on how to study the regulation of root hair plasticity to increase the resilience of cereals to abiotic stress. Summary Abiotic stress is a constant threat to crop growth and yield in the context of climate change. Root systems that can best adapt their architecture to environmental challenges contribute to enhanced ...

Unfolding Plant Defence: Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Signalling at the Plant‐Pathogen Interface
ABSTRACT The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, a conserved proteostasis network, has emerged as a central hub that reprograms plant immunity during pathogen attack. This review synthesises how plants harness ER‐stress signalling to mount multilayered defences and how pathogens have evolved counterstrategies to subvert these pathways.

Spatial Regulation of Silicon Accumulation in Peduncle Confers Sheathed Spike in Barley
ABSTRACT Peduncle, the uppermost internode in cereals, connects the stem to the inflorescence and is critical for the transport of water, nutrients and photosynthetic assimilates. While peduncle length associates with plant height and its elongation is primarily regulated by phytohormones, we report a previously unrecognized mechanism involving the ...

No Cost of Resistance in Wheat Gene Stack Lines Containing 10 Stem Rust Resistance Transgenes
ABSTRACT Genetic resistance is the most economical and sustainable approach for crop protection, however, it is regularly overcome by pathogen virulence evolution. Polygenic resistance has greater durability, but unlinked genes are laborious to maintain in breeding programs.

STRUCTURE group assignments for individual wild barley accessions.
The results shown are based on K = 5 and for BOPA SNPs. The results for nSSRs (not shown) were similar. Results correspond with spatial autocorrelation analysis (Fig. 2) in describing a more complex genetic structure in wild barley than might be expected

The CaM1‐CBP60b‐MYB77 Transcriptional Cascade Regulates K+ Homeostasis and Salt Tolerance in Barley
ABSTRACT Soil salinity is a major abiotic stress that threatens global crop productivity. Calcium (Ca2+) is a pivotal second messenger in plant stress signalling, but how Ca2+ sensors such as calmodulin (CaM) transcriptionally control ion homeostasis and salt tolerance remains largely understood in crops.

Genetic erosion in domesticated barley and a hypothesis of a North African centre of diversity
Barley is one of the founder crops of the Neolithic transition in West Asia. While recent advances in genomics have provided a rather detailed picture of barley domestication, there are contradictory views on how the domestication process affected ...
