Arabidopsis thaliana RHAMNOSE 1 condensate formation drives UDP-rhamnose synthesis

The paper shows that RHM1 forms condensates called rhamnosomes, which are essential for UDP-rhamnose synthesis and plant organ development.

Variability in drought gene expression datasets highlight the need for community standardization

This study analyzes drought gene expression datasets and finds they are inconsistent, proposing classifiers to detect drought stress and advocating for standardized protocols.

Selection constraints of plant adaptation can be relaxed by gene editing

This study shows that gene editing can relax selection constraints on plant traits by altering genetic correlations between flowering time and water use efficiency in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Non-destructive, whole-plant phenotyping reveals dynamic changes in water use efficiency, photosynthesis efficiency, and rhizosphere acidification of sorghum accessions under osmotic stress

This study develops a low-cost, non-invasive whole-plant phenotyping system to measure dynamic physiological responses of sorghum under osmotic stress.

Photosynthetic acclimation mediates exponential growth of a desert plant in Death Valley summer

This study shows Tidestromia oblongifolia rapidly acclimates to extreme heat by altering gene expression, organellar dynamics, and photosynthesis.

Uncoupling differential water usage from drought resistance in a dwarf Arabidopsis mutant

The paper reassesses the drought phenotype of an Arabidopsis mutant, finding that its dwarf phenotype leads to lower water usage but not increased drought resistance.

CHIQUITA1 maintains temporal transition between proliferation and differentiation in Arabidopsis thaliana

This study identifies CHIQUITA1 as a gene required to maintain the timing of the transition from proliferation to differentiation in Arabidopsis thaliana, influencing organ size.

A Bivalent Chromatin Controls Timing of Expression of Camalexin Biosynthesis Genes in Response to a Pathogen Signal in Arabidopsis

The paper identifies a bivalent chromatin state, called a kairostat, that controls the timing of camalexin biosynthesis gene expression in Arabidopsis in response to pathogen signals.

Plant Metabolic Network: A multi-species resource of plant metabolic information

The paper updates the Plant Metabolic Network (PMN) with 126 genomes and tools for analyzing metabolism across species, revealing distinct metabolic groups and demonstrating applications in drought tolerance and cell-type specific metabolism.

Interdependent Iron and Phosphorus Availability Controls Photosynthesis Through Retrograde Signaling

The paper shows that iron and phosphorus deficiency interact to control photosynthesis through retrograde signaling involving ascorbate transport and transcription factors.

Hydration-dependent phase separation of a prion-like protein regulates seed germination during water stress.

This study identifies FLOE1, a prion-like protein in Arabidopsis thaliana, whose hydration-dependent phase separation regulates seed germination under water stress.

Genome-Enabled Discovery of Anthraquinone Biosynthesis in Senna tora

The paper identifies a CHS-L gene responsible for anthraquinone biosynthesis in S. tora using genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, and biochemistry.

Systems approaches provide new insights into Arabidopsis thaliana root growth under mineral nutrient limitation

The paper analyzes root growth responses in Arabidopsis thaliana under nutrient deficiencies and identifies genes and pathways involved in growth regulation.
