Plant responses to water stress

Morpho-physiological and transcriptomic responses of field pennycress to waterlogging

This study examines how waterlogging affects two pennycress lines, showing differences in gene expression, morphology, and yield, with MN106 showing stronger upregulation of hypoxia-related genes.

Engineering prolyl hydroxylase-dependent proteolysis enables the orthogonal control of hypoxia responses in plants

The paper engineers a synthetic system in Arabidopsis thaliana to control hypoxia responses through oxygen-dependent proteolysis, restoring responsiveness in mutants and enabling growth regulation under hypoxic conditions.

Drone-Based Identification of Flood-Tolerant Maize via Multispectral Imaging: A Real-World Case Study

The paper uses drone-based multispectral imaging to study flood tolerance in maize hybrids, identifying spatial and genetic factors associated with post-flood survival.

H2O2 repurposes the plant oxygen-sensing machinery to control the transcriptional response to oxidative stress

The paper shows that H2O2 stabilizes ERFVII transcription factors in reoxygenation, leading to repression of hypoxia markers and activation of oxidative stress genes.

Evaluation of stress tolerance in IR64 rice near-isogenic lines carrying SUB1 and DRO1 genes

This study evaluates the stress tolerance of a novel rice genotype NIL-SUB1DRO1 compared to IR64 under submergence and drought conditions, finding improved recovery and water retention in NIL-SUB1DRO1.

Genotype-environment association across precipitation regimens reveals the mechanism of plant adaptation to rainy environments

The paper identifies genetic variants associated with hypoxic tolerance in Arabidopsis by combining eGWAS and experimental validation, revealing the role of the MBR1/MED25 module in plant adaptation to rainy environments.
