Orphan genes (OGs) are defined as genes having no sequence similarity with genes
present in other lineages. OGs have been regarded to play a key role in the development of …

More than 15 petabases of raw RNAseq data is now accessible through public repositories.
Acquisition of other'omics data types is expanding, though most lack a centralized archival …

Nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen are common factors in multiple plant responses to
stress, and their involvement in hypoxia‐triggered responses is key to ensure growth under …

Flowering is triggered by the transmission of a mobile protein, FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT),
from leaves to the shoot apex. FT originates in the phloem of leaf veins. However, the …

Torreya grandis has high economic and nutritional value due to the high nutrients in its
kernels. The kernels of different development stages vary enormously in their amino acids …

Sugar transport across membranes is critical for plant development and yield. However, an
analysis of the role of intracellular sugar transporters in senescence is lacking. Here, we …

The chromatin modification H3K27me3 is involved in almost every developmental stage in
Arabidopsis. Much remains unknown about the dynamic regulation of this histone …

Plant mitochondrial genomes exhibit unique evolutionary patterns. They have a high
rearrangement but low mutation rate, and a large size. Based on massive mitochondrial …

Orphan genes are genetic innovations that lack homologs in other lineages. Orphan genes
can rapidly originate and become substantially functional, yet the mechanisms underlying …

Nitrogen (N) is an essential factor for limiting crop yields, and cultivation of crops with low
nitrogen‐use efficiency (NUE) exhibits increasing environmental and ecological risks …
