Nighttime warming poses a threat to global food security as it is driving yield declines worldwide, but our understanding of the physiological basis of this phenomenon remains very limited. Furthermore, it is often assumed that such decline...

Prime editing, developed by Anzalone et al., brings genome editing to a new level, because this approach allows introduction of all mutation types, including insertions, deletions, and all putative 12 types of base-to-base conversions. Prev...

How the plant cell wall expands and forms shapes is a long-standing mystery. Traditional thought is that turgor pressure drives these processes. However, a recent study by Haas and colleagues shows for the first time that the expansion of p...

Digging into the limited literature on lateral root (LR) formation in early vascular plants, we came to the novel conclusion that the pericycle, rather than the endodermis as commonly assumed, represents the ancestral tissue that was evolut...

Members of the genus Populus (i.e., cottonwood, hybrid poplar) represent a promising source of lignocellulosic biomass for biofuels. However, one of the major factors negatively affecting poplar's efficient conversion to biofuel is the inhe...

It is generally accepted that plants locally influence the composition and activity of their rhizosphere microbiome, and that rhizosphere community assembly further involves a hierarchy of constraints with varying strengths across spatial a...

Gene expression in individual cells can be surprisingly noisy. In unicellular organisms this noise can be functional; for example, by allowing a subfraction of the population to prepare for environmental stress. The role of gene expression ...

Programmed cell death (PCD) is a genetically regulated process for the selective demise of unwanted and damaged cells. Although our understanding of plant PCD pathways has advanced significantly, doubts remain on the extent of conservation ...

This work analyzes the current trends in land salinization and its impact on the global food security. It is argued that reliance on salt-excluding crops is counterproductive and environmentally unsustainable. New breeding paradigms are req...

Cannabis has been used as a medicine for millennia. Crude extracts of cannabis inflorescence contain numerous phytomolecules, including phytocannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids. Combinations of phytomolecules have been recently establish...
