This study identifies Phytosulfokine (PSK) signaling as a regulator of salt stress responses and cell wall remodeling in Arabidopsis through proteomic and functional analyses.

This study shows that Pseudomonas VOCs enhance plant growth under drought by modulating root transcriptomes and microbiomes.

This study identifies the SAUERKRAUT transposable element's role in accelerating Arabidopsis floral transition under salt stress by modulating IBA homeostasis.

This paper shows that salt stress disrupts auxin and COP1 gradients in Arabidopsis apical hooks, impairing hook formation and seedling emergence.

This study shows that warm temperature and mild water stress together promote root elongation in plants, involving SnRK2.2/SnRK2.3 and COP1 in regulating HY5 stability.

This study identifies different physiological and transcriptomic responses in potato cultivars under salt stress, revealing that acclimation ability, not initial root protection, determines long-term resilience.

This study shows that ABA signaling suppresses sodium-specific gene responses in Arabidopsis roots and protects against salt-induced cellular damage.

This paper introduces a monochromatic X-ray fluorescence method for quantitatively analyzing light elements in plant tissues, showing it is rapid, non-destructive, and suitable for small samples.

The paper identifies a major QTL for sodium accumulation in tomato shoots under salt stress and links it to the expression of SlHKT1.2, a sodium transporter gene.
