Heat stress severely affects plant growth and crop production. It is therefore urgent to
uncover the mechanisms underlying heat stress responses of plants and establish the …

Riboregulators such as riboswitches and RNA thermometers provide simple, protein-
independent tools to control gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. In bacteria …

Photosynthetic algae are the main primary producers in polar regions, form the basis of
polar food webs, and are responsible for a significant portion of global carbon fixation. Many …

Background “Red tides” are harmful algal blooms caused by dinoflagellate microalgae that
accumulate toxins lethal to other organisms, including humans via consumption of …

Animal regeneration involves coordinated responses across cell types throughout the
animal body. In endosymbiotic animals, whether and how symbionts react to host injury and …

The rapid accumulation of sequenced plant genomes in the past decade has outpaced the
still difficult problem of genome‐wide protein‐coding gene annotation. A substantial fraction …

Elucidating biological processes has relied on the establishment of model organisms, many
of which offer advantageous features such as rapid axenic growth, extensive knowledge of …

Caspases are restricted to animals, while other organisms, including plants, possess
metacaspases (MCAs), a more ancient and broader class of structurally related yet …

Microalgae are widely recognized as a promising bioresource for producing renewable fuels
and chemicals. Microalgal biorefinery has tremendous potential for incorporation into …

Improving high-temperature tolerance of microalgae is crucial to enhance the robustness
and economy of microalgae industrial production. Herein, a continuous adaptive laboratory …
