The mRNA covalent modification dihydrouridine regulates transcript turnover and photosynthetic capacity during plant abiotic stress

This study identifies dihydrouridine (DHU) modification as a regulator of transcript turnover and photosynthetic capacity in plants under abiotic stress.

HAMRLNC: A Comprehensive Pipeline for High-throughput Analysis of Modified Ribonucleotides and Long Non-Coding Ribonucleic Acids

HAMRLNC is a computational pipeline for analyzing RNA-seq data to quantify transcript abundance, infer RNA modifications, and annotate lncRNAs, producing labeled figures for visualization.

Quantifying Leaf Symptoms of Sorghum Charcoal Rot in Images of Field-Grown Plants 9 Using Deep Neural Networks

This paper develops deep learning models to detect and quantify sorghum charcoal rot in field images, finding that EfficientNet-B3 and FCN achieve high accuracy and efficiency.

Identification and Functional Annotation of Long Intergenic Non-coding RNAs in the Brassicaceae

The paper identifies and functionally annotates ~130,000 lincRNAs in four Brassicaceae species using RNA-seq and epigenomic data, highlighting conserved motifs and stress-responsive features.

The contributions from the progenitor genomes of the mesopolyploid Brassiceae are evolutionarily distinct but functionally compatible

The paper confirms a two-step hybridization model for the formation of hexaploidy in Brassiceae and shows subgenomes have distinct loss rates but functionally compatible genes.
