Functional diversification of ERF transcription factors in land plants

This study investigates the functional diversification of ERF transcription factors across land plants using liverwort and Arabidopsis, revealing conserved and lineage-specific roles in development and stress responses.

Marchantia stem cell maintenance and re-establishment are controlled by MpPIN1-mediated auxin transport and ARF signalling

This study reveals how auxin transport and ARF signaling regulate stem cell maintenance and re-establishment in the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha.

Arsenic-Driven Trafficking of ACR3 Transporters Is Conserved across Plant Lineages

The paper investigates ACR3 transporter trafficking in plants, showing conserved mechanisms linking arsenic sensing to subcellular localization across lineages.

Initiation of asexual reproduction by the AP2/ERF gene GEMMIFER in Marchantia polymorpha

This study identifies GEMMIFER (MpGMFR) as a key regulator of asexual reproduction in Marchantia polymorpha by showing its necessity and sufficiency for initiating gemma formation.

The minimal cell-cycle control system in Marchantia as a framework for understanding plant cell proliferation

This study identifies a minimal cell-cycle control system in the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha, revealing conserved mechanisms and ancestral states of cell-cycle regulation in plants.

The ABCG1 transporter facilitates sesquiterpene accumulation in Marchantia polymorpha oil bodies.

The paper identifies ABCG1 as critical for sesquiterpene retention in Marchantia polymorpha oil bodies through overexpression and CRISPR disruption experiments.

Arsenic-sensing domain controls ACR3 transporter trafficking and function in Marchantia polymorpha

This study identifies an arsenic-sensing domain in MpACR3 that regulates its trafficking and function, revealing a plant-specific adaptation to arsenic toxicity.
