Anthocyanins play a variety of adaptive roles in both vegetative tissues and reproductive
organs of plants. The broad functionality of these compounds requires sophisticated …

Amid apprehension of global climate change, crop plants are inevitably confronted with a
myriad of abiotic stress factors during their growth that inflicts a serious threat to their …

The intensive application of inorganic nitrogen underlies marked increases in crop
production, but imposes detrimental effects on ecosystems,: it is therefore crucial for future …

High-throughput single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is becoming a cornerstone of
developmental research, providing unprecedented power in understanding dynamic …

Land plants evolved from charophytic algae, among which Charophyceae possess the most
complex body plans. We present the genome of Chara braunii; comparison of the genome to …

Plants have evolved adaptive strategies that involve transcriptional networks to cope with
and survive environmental challenges. Key transcriptional regulators that mediate …

Sophisticated regulation of gene expression, including microRNAs (miRNAs) and their
target genes, is required for leaf differentiation, growth, and senescence. The impact of …
