This study automates the GLO-Roots platform with robotics and image analysis to examine natural variation in Arabidopsis root system architecture over time, revealing complex traits correlated with climate variables.

This study identifies conserved osmotic stress pathways in green algae and plants using transcriptomics and functional genomics, revealing a novel actin remodeling mechanism.

The paper develops a FRET biosensor using intrinsically disordered proteins to monitor osmotic stress effects across multiple organisms.

The study identifies conserved and divergent ABA gene regulatory networks across Brassicaceae species, revealing how network structure influences growth control under stress.

The paper identifies a plant lipocalin, TIL, that is required for retinal-mediated de novo root organogenesis in Arabidopsis.

This study identifies CYP38 as a gene regulating lateral root emergence through photosynthesis-dependent signaling, revealing a role for auxin biosynthesis in this process.

This study shows cytokinin signaling in lateral roots acts as an anti-gravitropic signal, counteracting auxin's effect to promote radial root expansion in Arabidopsis.

The paper shows that a synthetic sulfated RaxX peptide mimics plant PSY peptides to promote root growth and that XA21 recognizes microbial RaxX to trigger immunity.

This study shows that root growth is necessary for perceiving water availability and patterning lateral root branches.

This study links field and controlled environment plant height phenotypes in Setaria using genetic analysis, showing height is heritable, polygenic, and influenced by environmental factors and developmental timing.
