This study identifies VRN2 as an oxygen-sensing PRC2 subunit that establishes adaptive flooding stress memory in plants by modulating chromatin and transcriptional responses.

This paper demonstrates that CUT&Tag can achieve higher resolution epigenomic profiling in Arabidopsis than ChIP-seq, even from small tissue samples.

This study identifies ALFIN-LIKE proteins as readers of H3K4me3 that antagonize H3K27me3 during Arabidopsis embryogenesis, revealing their role in shaping the epigenomic landscape and maintaining cell identity.

This study shows that MEA, a Polycomb group protein in Arabidopsis, is essential for embryonic patterning and cell lineage determination, independent of endosperm function.
