Plants detect the presence of phospholipids in eggs from a herbivorous insect and trigger innate immunity.

The brown planthopper has evolved a highly adaptive oviposition strategy by exploiting caterpillar-induced plant volatiles that provide safe havens for its offspring.

A gain-of-function in a new chemical defense resulted in no trade-offs and and independent evolution between novel and ancestral defenses, suggesting low redundancy among different defensive chemicals.

Meiotic chromosome axis 'core' proteins from fungi, plants, and mammals form a conserved filament architecture, and use a common mechanism to recruit HORMAD proteins for meiotic recombination control.

Arabidopsis seed germination can be repressed by a Pseudomonas factor.

Young defense metabolites are often believed to be solely outputs but evidence suggests that they can regulate ancient signaling pathways.

Coupled physiology and gene expression, measured over a two-day time course, reveals specific time-of-day responses to the early stages of drought in Brassica rapa.

The influence of time on the drought response of Brassica rapa, an agriculturally important species of plant, has been clarified.

Gene expression changes associated with polymorphisms in non-coding sequences of the flowering time regulator FLM directly influence flowering time in ambient temperature in Arabidopsis over an extended vegetative period.

In the plant circadian clock photoreceptor ZEITLUPE, evolutionarily selected residues distinguish photocycle kinetics and allosteric signal transduction pathways to permit proper circadian timing.
