The paper identifies molecular mechanisms driving chemodiversity in Tanacetum vulgare, proposing a new model where chemodiversity is selected for at the population level rather than being a reservoir for later selection.

This study examines common and species-specific responses of phytohormones and morphological traits to drought and herbivory in three plant species, revealing shared and unique regulatory pathways.

This study identifies and characterizes the genetic and regulatory mechanisms of xanthan utilization in Microbacterium xanthanicum UB-LE1, revealing conserved and lineage-specific features of this polysaccharide degradation system.

The paper examines the time- and space-resolved expression of kinases, E3 ligases, and transcription factors in Arabidopsis thaliana to understand their role in metabolic regulation and stress responses.

The paper uses phenotyping and transcriptomics to study drought responses in Arabidopsis thaliana, revealing multiple overlapping transcriptional programs that interact with aging.

The paper identifies conserved transcription factor binding motifs across plant species and shows their conservation over 450 million years.

The paper shows CAM regulation in K. laxiflora involves more than transcript and protein abundance, including adaptive amino acid changes and phosphoproteome shifts between day and night.

This study investigates how excess manganese affects Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 by comparing wild-type and mnx knockout strains, revealing the critical role of Mnx in manganese homeostasis.

The paper develops a population genetic model to test five hypotheses about the evolution of plant chemodiversity, finding support for some hypotheses and partial support for others.

The paper identifies core transcription factor binding motifs in Arabidopsis thaliana and shows that motif competition within TF families influences gene expression.

The paper compares transcriptome dynamics in developing leaves of C3 and C4 Flaveria species to identify molecular determinants of Kranz anatomy, finding auxin homeostasis is critical for high vein density in C4 leaves.

The paper investigates biochemical mechanisms enabling rapid fluxes in C4 photosynthesis and their implications for plant growth and carbon fixation efficiency.
