The paper designs a synthetic ERFVII-dependent circuit in yeast to study hypoxia responses, finding similar fast transcriptional responses to plants but highlighting the importance of feedback loops.

This study shows hydrogen sulfide modulates hypoxic responses in Arabidopsis by inhibiting plant cysteine oxidases through persulfidation, affecting gene activation and submergence tolerance.

The paper analyzes the evolution of oxygen sensing machinery in angiosperms, finding that habitat and anatomy shape diversification of Cys-NDP components while retaining a conserved transcriptional core.

This study replaces Arabidopsis PCOs with NCOs from different species to show how enzyme activity affects hypoxia gene expression and submergence survival, but also impacts growth and biomass.

This study shows that Fe deficiency in Arabidopsis thaliana can trigger hypoxia-like responses through ERFVII factors, which regulate starvation-responsive genes and nutrient mobilization under combined stress conditions.

The paper shows that H2O2 stabilizes ERFVII transcription factors in reoxygenation, leading to repression of hypoxia markers and activation of oxidative stress genes.
