The paper develops a male-sterile line of Setaria viridis to enable efficient genetic crosses, significantly increasing cross rates and seed purity.

This study shows that reducing PIF7 in pennycress decreases shade and heat responses without affecting yield or oil content, improving plant performance under stress.

This paper adapts a ligand-inducible genetic circuit to induce anthocyanin production in the monocot Setaria viridis, enabling non-destructive detection of pigmentation via hyperspectral imaging.

The paper analyzes 739 Thlaspi arvense accessions to uncover genetic variation and adaptation mechanisms, identifying genomic regions linked to agronomic traits and climate resilience.

ExPOSE enables expansion microscopy in plant protoplasts, enhancing resolution for biomolecule visualization through integration with immunofluorescence and in situ hybridization.

This study overexpresses NPQ genes in C4 plant Setaria viridis to compare photoprotection mechanisms with C3 plants, finding shared and unique traits that could improve crop resilience.

The paper restricts developmental plasticity in Arabidopsis by manipulating photosensory and circadian signaling, resulting in uniform growth and flowering time.

This study identifies combinations of two or more phospholipase Ds and specific phosphatidic acid species involved in altering circadian clock outputs in Arabidopsis.

The paper uses genome resources from Setaria viridis to identify loci associated with climate response, seed shattering, and leaf angle, and validates a novel domestication gene.
