This study shows AGP-Ca2+ binding is essential for pollen development and tube growth in Arabidopsis, as mutants lacking this function exhibit reduced seed set and pollen abortion.

This study identifies gene regulatory modules involved in Antirrhinum flower shape development by analyzing gene expression patterns along developmental axes and boundaries.

The paper investigates molecular mechanisms controlling dormancy transitions in cork oak buds, identifying QsCENL and QsDYL1 as key regulators and highlighting epigenetic roles in seasonal development.

This study identifies epigenetic modifier proteins in Quercus suber, including DNA methyltransferases, demethylases, and histone modifiers, and links their expression to known functions in related species.
