Cell cycle-driven epigenetic resetting maintains stem cell fate for shoot branching

The paper shows that cell cycle progression in Arabidopsis stem cells maintains pluripotency by resetting epigenetic marks and silencing fate-determining genes through PRC2 recruitment.

Telomere-to-telomere genome of the model plant Physcomitrium patens

The paper presents a telomere-to-telomere genome assembly for Physcomitrium patens, correcting previous incomplete and erroneous regions and providing resources for moss genomics.

Convergence within divergence: insights of wheat adaptation from Triticum population sequencing

This study uses whole-genome sequencing of Triticum and Aegilops populations to show that introgression from wild relatives contributed 13-36% of the bread wheat genome, enhancing genetic diversity and enabling adaptation, while convergent adaptation to human selection was enriched despite ploidy and environmental differences.

A microtubule-mediated mechanical feedback controls leaf blade development in three dimensions

The paper shows that microtubule alignment along mechanical stress patterns in internal walls governs the three-dimensional geometry of thin leaf blades.

Uniform distribution of 35S promoter-driven mDII auxin control sensor in leaf primordia

The paper confirms uniform distribution of the mDII control sensor in leaf primordia and validates asymmetric auxin signaling using DII/mDII and R2D2 sensors, while highlighting potential artifacts from light penetration in imaging.
