This study uses topological data analysis and deep learning to show that grapevine leaf blade and vasculature shapes are predictively linked, suggesting a one-to-one relationship between the two tissues.

This study shows that drought causes rice to temporarily disengage from its mycorrhizal symbiosis, which reverses when water is restored.

The paper examines TE accumulation in Scalesia species and finds no significant variation despite hybridization and niche shifts, challenging the role of TEs in diversification.

This paper identifies a loss-of-function mutant in the SoPIN1 clade in tomato, showing its role in maintaining epidermal auxin flux and proper organ initiation patterns.

This study identifies 7,200 eQTL regulating transcript levels of 5,300 genes in tomato, revealing complex genetic architecture and associations with biological processes and phenotypes.

The paper shows that auxin asymmetry models predict mirrored leaf asymmetries in decussate and distichous phyllotactic systems, confirmed by mutant and species analyses.

The paper identifies auxin signaling and cell wall expansion genes as key factors in natural variation of shade avoidance in tomato, linking them to growth plasticity and QTL effects on stem elongation and developmental rate.

This study shows that shade avoidance in tomato plants alters leaf shape through changes in gene expression related to indeterminacy, not through juvenile leaf type prolongation.
