Elucidating the systemic response of wheat plants under waterlogging based on transcriptomic and metabolic approaches

This study investigates wheat's response to waterlogging using metabolomics and transcriptomics, identifying alanine as a key metabolite for balancing carbon/nitrogen between roots and shoots.

Introduction of a terminal electron sink in chloroplasts decreases leaf cell expansion associated to higher proteasome activity and lower endoreduplication

The paper shows that introducing flavodoxin as an alternative electron sink in chloroplasts reduces leaf size by increasing proteasome activity and decreasing endoreduplication.

Providing an additional electron sink by the introduction of cyanobacterial flavodiirons enhances the growth of Arabidopsis thaliana in varying light

This study introduces cyanobacterial flavodiirons into Arabidopsis thaliana to enhance photosynthetic efficiency and growth under varying light conditions.
