This study identifies differentially expressed genes associated with flowering-time variation in coffee genotypes, linking them to hormonal regulation and floral development pathways.

The paper identifies a coffee TFL1 ortholog with alternate splicing that represses flowering in Arabidopsis, suggesting a role in asynchronous flowering in coffee.

This study identifies SlAN1 as the limiting factor for light-dependent anthocyanin accumulation in tomato fruit tissues, revealing its role in both peel and flesh.

The paper identifies and characterizes the ScCAMTA transcription factor family in sugarcane, finding ScCAMTA7 is highly active under drought stress.

The paper investigates the genomic composition and regulatory networks of Coffea arabica sub-genomes, finding that essential gene expression machinery is preferentially located in one sub-genome.
