Plant specialized metabolites (PSMs) are compounds that are not involved in primary metabolism but instead confer other roles for the plant host, often related to ecological interactions. In the field of plant-microbe interactions, many PSM...
Seasonal and intracanopy shifts in the fates of absorbed photons in central Amazonian forests: implications for leaf fluorescence and photosynthesis [0.03%]
亚马逊中心地区森林中吸收光子的命运的季节性和林冠内的变化及其对叶片荧光和光合作用的影响

Recent studies have shown a linear relationship between solar-induced Chl fluorescence (SIF) and gross primary productivity (GPP) at large scales. However, this relationship diverges at finer leaf scales, particularly in tropical forests wi...
MdARF2-mediated ABA signaling orchestrates malate biosynthesis and transport via repression of MdcyMDH and MdMATEL1 in apple [0.03%]
MdARF2通过抑制MdcyMDH和MdMATEL1介导的ABA信号协调苹果苹果酸生物合成和运输

Chu-Kun Wang et al.
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a crucial regulator of plant growth, while vacuolar malate accumulation is pivotal for determining fruit taste and flavor. However, the relationship between ABA signaling and malate metabolism remains poorly understoo...

In terrestrial plants, seeds often germinate and initiate early development in the darkness under layers of soil. Soil overlay promotes ethylene accumulation to maintain the hook until the seedlings reach the soil surface. During this phase...
An isoflavone reductase-like protein MtIFL negatively regulates nodule symbiosis in Medicago truncatula [0.03%]
蒺藜苜蓿中的一个异黄酮还原酶类蛋白MtIFL负调控根瘤共生形成

Flavonoids are valuable metabolites produced by legumes, including Medicago truncatula, and play crucial roles in signaling communication during legume-rhizobium symbiosis. Isoflavone reductase proteins (IFRs) are involved in the biosynthes...
World-wide impacts of climate change and nitrogen deposition on vegetation structure, composition, and functioning of shrublands [0.03%]
气候变化和氮沉降对灌木丛植被结构、组成及功能的全球影响

Daijun Liu et al.
Environmental changes and their effects are among the most pressing topics of today's ecological research. Shrublands, although widespread across the globe, remain understudied in this respect. We conducted a global meta-analysis of 81 shru...

Carnivorous plants secrete digestive enzymes for prey degradation. Although carnivorous plants have a polyphyletic origin and evolved several times independently, they surprisingly co-opted similar digestive enzymes during convergent evolut...
Signaling defenses with color: a meta-analysis of leaf color variation, palatability, and herbivore damage [0.03%]
用颜色发出信号：关于叶片色彩变化、可口性和食草动物损害的元分析研究
Tatiana Cornelissen,Fernando A O Silveira,Susan Vieira Gomes et al.
Tatiana Cornelissen et al.
We investigated the impact of leaf color variation on herbivory, testing current hypotheses indicating that leaf color could influence herbivory through bottom-up control (by signaling leaf quality and defenses) or top-down control (by attr...
Uncovering the reciprocal effects of plant polyploidy and the microbiome: implications for understanding of polyploid success [0.03%]
揭示植物多倍体和微生物组的相互作用：理解多倍体成功的影响

Polyploidy plays a major role in diversification and speciation of almost all plants. Separately, the microbiome is recognized for its ubiquitous role in plant functioning. Despite the importance of both processes, we lack a synthetic pictu...
