Cryptic Variation in Adaptive Phenotypes Revealed by Panspecific flc Mutants

The paper investigates how genetic background modulates the effects of FLC mutants on flowering and other traits in Arabidopsis thaliana, revealing cryptic variation and pleiotropy.

The 1001G+ project: A curated collection of Arabidopsis thaliana long-read genome assemblies to advance plant research

The paper curates and presents a collection of long-read genome assemblies for Arabidopsis thaliana accessions to enhance plant genome research.

Phosphorylation-Dependent Activation of the bHLH Transcription Factor ICE1/SCRM Promotes Polarization of the Arabidopsis Zygote

This study shows that phosphorylation of the bHLH transcription factor SCRM by MPK3/6 promotes zygote polarization in Arabidopsis, contrasting with its role in epidermal cell divisions.

Position-dependent effects of cytosine methylation on FWA expression in Arabidopsis thaliana

The paper investigates how DNA methylation at different positions within the FWA locus in Arabidopsis thaliana affects gene expression, finding that methylation at the transcription start site is most effective for silencing.

Image-based methods for phenotyping growth dynamics and fitness in Arabidopsis thaliana

The paper develops image-based methods to estimate biomass and fruit number in Arabidopsis thaliana using regular camera images and statistical models.

A rainfall-manipulation experiment with 517 Arabidopsis thaliana accessions

The paper presents a rainfall-manipulation experiment with 517 Arabidopsis thaliana accessions to study adaptation and fitness under different climate conditions.

A Role For The F-Box Protein HAWAIIAN SKIRT In Plant miRNA Function

The paper identifies HAWAIIAN SKIRT as an F-box dependent regulator of miRNA biogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana.
