This study examines the effects of strigolactone mutants in Sorghum bicolor on ecophysiology and symbioses, revealing trade-offs in parasitic plant resistance and mycorrhizal interactions.

This study shows sorghum plants alter their physiology in response to neighboring plants through belowground signaling via leachates, affecting growth and productivity.

The paper validates genome-environment associations in Arabidopsis by testing 42 GEA-identified genes under drought, finding 16 had significant effects on adaptive traits or GxE interactions.

This study shows that developmental timing affects genotype-environment interactions and drought adaptation in Arabidopsis, with genetic tradeoffs maintaining diversity across climates.
