The paper analyzes genomic diversity in the rice landrace Acuce to understand its resistance to pathogens and agricultural traits, finding high diversity and selection pressures in immunity genes.

This study analyzes genetic diversity in rice landraces from the Yuanyang Terraces, finding high genetic variation and differences in immune gene evolution between traditional and modern rice varieties.

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 shows that CrSTM autoactivation through a cis regulatory element is essential for Capsella fruit shape transition during metamorphosis.

The paper uses single cell transcriptomes to study how regulatory networks change during the development of Kranz anatomy in C4 grasses.
