Maternal epigenetic changes in H3K27me3 regulate embryonic patterning by controlling auxin transport genes in plants, affecting embryo development.
SNI1/NSE5 acts as a temperature-sensitive brake on class II crossovers, increasing crossover bias toward subtelomeric regions in Arabidopsis at low temperatures.

Long-term woody biomass growth remains proportional to photosynthesis despite weak short-term correlations, indicating decoupling does not limit biomass accumulation.
Vegetation in the Northern Hemisphere overcompensates after late-spring frost in 21.5-41.0% of events, leading to annual productivity exceeding non-frost levels.
RNA interference-based biopesticides have achieved practical registration for pests like the Colorado potato beetle and varroa mite, marking a significant technological milestone.
Single-cell transcriptome atlas reveals that co-expressed transcription factors define most soybean cell types with 156 clusters across ten organs.
Zinc-finger proteins C3H14 and C3H15 are essential for maintaining meiocyte identity in flowering plants, with mutations causing meiotic arrest and cell death.
A protoplast-based CRISPRa screen in rice identified OsTV1, a papillae-specific receptor kinase, that confers broad-spectrum fungal resistance with increased silicon deposition.
Elevated VIM2/4 expression reduces CG methylation inheritance fidelity, causing rapid methylation shifts and increased epigenetic variation in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Six haplotypes of the hexaploid chrysanthemum cultivar 'Jinba' reveal complex domestication involving extensive gene flow from Chinese and Japanese wild germplasms.
A leucine-rich repeat receptor kinase called CERI is essential for systemic nitrogen-demand signalling in plants, with CERI loss impairing this process in Arabidopsis.
Chloroplast MgATP 2- levels remain stable despite reduced proton motive force in Arabidopsis mutants, challenging the necessity of cyclic electron transfer for ATP production.
