The nitrification inhibitor DMPP preferentially suppresses ammonia-oxidising bacteria and reduces nitric oxide emissions in an archaeal-dominated grassland soil.

This study shows that the nitrification inhibitor DMPP reduces nitric oxide emissions more than dicyandiamide by preferentially suppressing ammonia-oxidising bacteria in grassland soil.

Multi-tissue metabolic GWAS and drought-responsive multi-omics reveal the genetic basis of the quinoa metabolome

This study integrates multi-omics data from quinoa to identify genetic factors controlling its metabolome and stress response, revealing key genes involved in metabolite biosynthesis.

Identification of molecular mechanisms contributing to acquired thermotolerance by transcriptome profiling

This study identifies molecular mechanisms of acquired thermotolerance in Arabidopsis by analyzing transcriptome changes during heat acclimation and stress.

Root Remodeling Mechanisms and Salt Tolerance Trade-Offs: The Roles of HKT1, TMAC2, and TIP2;2 in Arabidopsis

This study investigates the roles of HKT1, TMAC2, and TIP2;2 in Arabidopsis salt tolerance, revealing genotype-specific feedback mechanisms affecting ABA signaling and root development.

LEAF SHAPE OF QUINOA WILD ANCESTOR CHENOPODIUM HIRCINUM IN A GEOGRAPHIC CONTEXT

This study analyzes leaf shape variation in Chenopodium hircinum across 23 populations to link morphological traits with environmental factors like temperature and altitude.

Leaf shape modulates climate trait relationships in the wild species Chenopodium hircinum (Amaranthaceae)

This study shows leaf shape in Chenopodium hircinum correlates with climate conditions, while functional traits are linked to morphology rather than climate directly.

Natural variation in salt-induced changes in root:shoot ratio reveals SR3G as a negative regulator of root suberization and salt resilience in Arabidopsis

Genome assembly of a diversity panel of Chenopodium quinoa

The paper reports chromosome-scale genome assemblies of eight quinoa accessions, identifying structural variations and providing resources for genetic studies.

Ethylene and ROS Signaling Are Key Regulators of Lateral Root Development under Salt Stress in Tomato

This study identifies genes regulating lateral root development in tomato under salt stress, revealing ethylene and ROS signaling as key factors.

Genome-wide association study in the pseudocereal quinoa reveals selection pattern typical for crops with a short breeding history

This paper conducts a genome-wide association study on quinoa to identify genetic markers linked to agronomic traits and reveals selection patterns in an underutilized crop.

Barley yield formation under abiotic stress depends on the interplay between flowering time genes and environmental cues

The paper shows that flowering time genes in barley affect yield under abiotic stress, with environmental cues modulating their effects, and suggests using wild barley genes to improve yield in crops.
