OsPSTOL1 is prevalent in upland rice and its expression in wheat enhances root growth and hastens low phosphate signaling

The paper evaluates OsPSTOL1's genetic variation and evolutionary history in rice and demonstrates its beneficial effects on wheat root growth under low phosphate conditions.

Regulation and Function of a Polarly Localized Lignin Barrier in the Exodermis

This study identifies a polar lignin cap in tomato exodermis that functions similarly to the endodermal Casparian strip but is regulated by distinct transcription factors.

A suberized exodermis is required for tomato drought tolerance

This study identifies exodermal suberization as critical for drought tolerance in tomato, contrasting with Arabidopsis endodermis, and highlights the role of MYB92 and ASFT in this process.

An updated nomenclature for plant ribosomal protein genes

The paper proposes updated nomenclature for plant ribosomal protein genes to improve adoption in plant biology, extending previous systems to include organellar ribosomes and additional species.

Ethylene augments root hypoxia tolerance through amelioration of reactive oxygen species and growth cessation

This study shows ethylene improves root hypoxia tolerance by reducing reactive oxygen species and inducing growth cessation in Arabidopsis thaliana.

DHH1/DDX6-like RNA helicases maintain ephemeral half-lives of stress-response mRNAs associated with innate immunity and growth inhibition

This study shows that DHH1/DDX6-like RNA helicases in Arabidopsis thaliana regulate the stability of stress-response mRNAs involved in innate immunity and growth inhibition.

Ethylene-mediated nitric oxide depletion pre-adapts plants to hypoxia stress

The paper shows that ethylene-mediated nitric oxide depletion pre-adapts plants to hypoxia stress by stabilizing ERFVII transcription factors.

Integrative analysis from the epigenome through translation exposes patterns of dominant nuclear regulation during transient stress

The paper analyzes multi-omic data from Arabidopsis seedlings under hypoxia and reoxygenation to show how nuclear regulation patterns differ between stress-induced and growth-related genes.

A stress recovery signaling network for enhanced flooding tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana

This paper identifies a signaling network in Arabidopsis thaliana that enhances flooding tolerance by regulating ROS homeostasis, stomatal aperture, and chlorophyll degradation during recovery.

Profiling of accessible chromatin regions across multiple plant species and cell types reveals common gene regulatory principles and new control modules

The paper uses ATAC-seq to profile accessible chromatin regions in multiple plant species and cell types, identifying conserved gene regulatory principles and new control modules.

Nuclear transcriptomes at high resolution using retooled INTACT

The paper retools the INTACT method for rice to enable high-resolution analysis of nuclear transcriptomes and chromatin in specific cell types.
