This study examines drought-induced phenotypic and transcriptomic plasticity in Dianthus inoxianus, identifying plastic genes and regulatory mechanisms underlying drought tolerance.

This study analyzes the genetic diversity and historical range dynamics of silver fir to identify conservation priorities under climate change.

The paper compares small RNA landscapes in two allopolyploid marsh orchid species and their diploid parents to understand how polyploidy affects genomic regulation.

The paper examines competitive interactions between polyploid and diploid cytotypes of Dianthus broteri under different water availability conditions, finding that higher ploidy levels have a competitive advantage in arid environments.

The paper uses genomic data to assess genetic diversity and mating patterns in Sicilian fir, identifying inbreeding and introgression risks and proposing conservation strategies.

The paper investigates genetic and epigenetic variation in two Erodium species, finding no genetic structure but significant epigenetic variation, particularly in DNA methylation patterns.
