The SAUERKRAUT transposable element acceleratesArabidopsis floral transition

This study identifies the SAUERKRAUT transposable element's role in accelerating Arabidopsis floral transition under salt stress by modulating IBA homeostasis.

Salt stress disrupts local auxin and COP1 gradients in Arabidopsis apical hooks

This paper shows that salt stress disrupts auxin and COP1 gradients in Arabidopsis apical hooks, impairing hook formation and seedling emergence.

Potato cultivars use different root physiological and molecular mechanisms to acclimate to salt stress

This study identifies different physiological and transcriptomic responses in potato cultivars under salt stress, revealing that acclimation ability, not initial root protection, determines long-term resilience.

A microtubule-based mechanism predicts cell division orientation in plant embryogenesis

The paper identifies three rules governing microtubule organization in plant embryos to predict cell division orientation based on cell shape and auxin effects.
