This paper introduces an optimized smFISH protocol for plant tissue cryosections, enabling precise quantification of mRNA and validation of scRNA-seq data.

The paper shows that reductions in petal size in selfing Brassicaceae species arise from dosage changes at the pleiotropic gene JAG, highlighting the role of developmental networks and standing variation in shaping predictable evolutionary outcomes.

The paper identifies a cell-controlled pathway generating tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) in plant male gametes, which mediate translational repression in pollen grains.

The paper identifies 402 differentially localized transcripts in Arabidopsis roots in response to nitrate, showing dynamic mRNA nucleocytoplasmic changes and their functional implications.

The paper examines RAD51 transcriptional response and cell cycle dynamics in Arabidopsis root cell types under DNA damage, revealing differences in sensitivity to genotoxic stress.

The paper shows that FLC gene expression in Arabidopsis is regulated by both analog and digital modes before cold exposure, with analog preceding digital and leading to gradual repression.
