This study shows brassinosteroids repress plant immunity by inducing DNA methylation and altering splicing of immune receptor genes through bHLH transcription factors.

This study uses multi-omics approaches to show that barley responds to Fusarium infection by upregulating aromatic amino acid-derived defense compounds.

The paper investigates LORE receptor diversification in Brassicaceae, showing conserved 3-OH-FAs sensing but varied chain-length preferences matching bacterial profiles.

The paper examines how drought stress and Fusarium infection interact to affect Fusarium Head Blight susceptibility in barley, finding that drought increases disease severity in moderately resistant genotypes but not in highly susceptible ones.

The paper reconstructs the evolution and sub-functionalization of the momilactone biosynthetic gene cluster in Oryza species using comparative genomics.

The paper reports the production of 130 diterpenoids in yeast through combinatorial biosynthesis using ten diterpene synthases and four cytochrome P450 enzymes, with 80 novel compounds identified.

The paper identifies a dopamine-gated learning circuit in Drosophila females that links mating experiences to long-lasting changes in odor preference behavior.
