The paper identifies an ETR1-dependent gene regulatory network in Arabidopsis roots that modulates ethylene signaling, synthesis, and root development through transcriptomic analysis of gain- and loss-of-function mutants.

This study characterizes the ACO gene family in Arabidopsis, showing tissue-specific ethylene production and its role in stress responses, but not essential for normal development.

Flavonols reduce heat-induced ROS and modulate transcriptome changes to improve thermotolerance in tomato pollen.

This study identifies EIL2 as a Brassicaceae-specific transcription factor that fine-tunes ethylene-dependent processes in Arabidopsis, including hypocotyl elongation, lateral root formation, and flowering time.
