The impact factor has become a defining feature of scientific journals. However, such reductionism can be toxic to science. As Cambridge University Press Quantitative Plant Biology celebrates its 5-year anniversary, and its first impact fac...
Small RNA, big defence: Early epigenetic responses to genetic invasion [0.03%]
小RNA，大防御：遗传入侵后的早期表观遗传响应

Plants are under constant genetic siege. From viruses and bacteria to transposable elements within their genomes, cells must contend with foreign genetic material. Besides these natural threats, modern biotechnology adds complexity by intro...
Biodesign and plant sciences: Evolving STEAM pedagogies in higher education [0.03%]
生物设计与植物科学——高等教育中STEAM教学法的演变

This perspective paper examines biodesign pedagogy in higher education, focusing on the integration of plant sciences with design and technology. We propose a dual framework for teaching biodesign: nature-driven and socially driven approach...
In situ near-infrared non-destructive monitoring of sugar accumulation reveals that single berries ripening takes only 20 days [0.03%]
原位近红外无损监测糖分积累表明葡萄单粒浆果的成熟期仅为20天

Understanding how climate change impacts berry ripening physiology is essential for selecting genotypes that balance sugars and acids under warming conditions. In this context, we used a portable near-infrared spectrometer in the vineyard, ...
Controlled delivery of phosphate to plants with optimized chemical and physical factors [0.03%]

Sustainable phosphorus fertilization is a growing challenge in agriculture. Phosphorus is necessary for plant growth, but it is typically only bioavailable in its orthophosphate form. Phosphate fertilizers contribute to environmental damage...
Plant nutation relies on steady propagation of spatially asymmetric growth pattern [0.03%]
植物营养生长依赖于空间不对称生长模式的稳定传播

Nutation is one of the most striking and ubiquitous examples of the rhythmic nature of plant development. Although the consensus is that this wide oscillatory motion is driven by growth, its internal mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated...
Ensuring robustness in scientific research, split-root assays as an example case [0.03%]
以分根实验为例确保科学研究的稳健性

Lucila Salvatore et al.
Scientific progress relies on reproducibility, replicability, and robustness of research outcomes. After briefly discussing these terms and their significance for reliable scientific discovery, we argue for the importance of investigating r...
CUC/auxin patterning of decanalised petal number in Cardamine hirsuta [0.03%]
蔊芥花瓣数目的CUC/生长素图式(pattern)决定机制研究

Léa Rambaud-Lavigne et al.
Petal number is highly canalised in the four-petalled flowers of Arabidopsis. This trait is decanalised in the closely related species Cardamine hirsuta, such that petal number varies from zero to four between individual flowers and in resp...
Using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to predict budbreak of the following year [0.03%]
利用近红外光谱(NIRS)预测来年芽破actionDate: 2023-10-17 16:58 BST

Amy Watson et al.
Near-infrared spectra (NIRS) from plant tissues can be used to predict traits owing to their relationship to internal biochemical states, shaped by both environmental and genetic components. Here, we tested the use of NIRS as predictors of ...
Meta-analysis of public RNA-sequencing data of drought and salt stresses in different phenotypes of resistant and susceptible Oryza sativa cultivars [0.03%]
