    Oomycete small RNAs bind to the plant RNA-induced silencing complex for virulence

    Florian Dunker, Adriana Trutzenberg ... Arne Weiberg
    Small RNAs of distantly related plant pathogens, such as fungi and oomycetes, hijack the plant RNA-induced silencing complex to favor host infection.

    m6A modification of U6 snRNA modulates usage of two major classes of pre-mRNA 5’ splice site

    Matthew T Parker, Beth K Soanes ... Gordon G Simpson
    High throughput sequencing of Arabidopsis mutants lacking the U6 snRNA methyltransferase FIONA1/METTL16 uncovers the role of U6 methylation in splicing signal preferences.

    A lectin receptor kinase as a potential sensor for extracellular nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide in Arabidopsis thaliana

    Chenggang Wang, Mingqi Zhou ... Zhonglin Mou
    Genetic and biochemical analyses demonstrate that cell-surface lectin receptors can potentially function as extracellular NAD+-binding receptors and provide direct evidence for extracellular NAD+ being a bona fide endogenous signaling molecule in plants.

    Hyperosmotic stress memory in Arabidopsis is mediated by distinct epigenetically labile sites in the genome and is restricted in the male germline by DNA glycosylase activity

    Anjar Wibowo, Claude Becker ... Jose Gutierrez-Marcos
    Transient adaptation to environmental fluctuations in plants is mediated through discrete epigenetic changes.

    Seasonal shift in timing of vernalization as an adaptation to extreme winter

    Susan Duncan, Svante Holm ... Caroline Dean
    An adaptation to extreme winter has involved a shift to autumn temperature monitoring.

    Organ geometry channels reproductive cell fate in the Arabidopsis ovule primordium

    Elvira Hernandez-Lagana, Gabriella Mosca ... Célia Baroux
    In the Arabidopsis ovule primordium, germinal fate plasticity is coupled to the morphogenetic processes shaping the organ.

    Dynamic ubiquitination determines transcriptional activity of the plant immune coactivator NPR1

    Michael J Skelly, James J Furniss ... Steven H Spoel
    Expression of plant immune genes is controlled by the opposing actions of ubiquitin ligases and deubiquitinases that modify the master coactivator NPR1, thereby regulating its intrinsic transcriptional activity.

    Widespread premature transcription termination of Arabidopsis thaliana NLR genes by the spen protein FPA

    Matthew T Parker, Katarzyna Knop ... Gordon G Simpson
    The expression of Arabidopsis NLR immune response genes is modulated by premature transcription termination, and this has implications for understanding NLR regulation and evolutionary dynamics.

    Plant immune and growth receptors share common signalling components but localise to distinct plasma membrane nanodomains

    Christoph A Bücherl, Iris K Jarsch ... Cyril Zipfel
    Although genetically and biochemically linked, the plant immune and growth receptors FLS2 and BRI1 form dispersed receptor clusters within the plasma membrane that are spatiotemporally separated.

    Flowering time and seed dormancy control use external coincidence to generate life history strategy

    Vicki Springthorpe, Steven Penfield
    Models of plant behaviour show that flowering early in a warming world is an adaptive strategy to insulate progeny seed behaviour from the affects of climate change.
