    Global warming reduces leaf-out and flowering synchrony among individuals

    Constantin M Zohner, Lidong Mo, Susanne S Renner
    Individuals differ in how their leaf-out and flowering are regulated by abiotic stimuli and, under climate warming, this leads to reduced within-population phenological synchrony, impacting mutualistic and antagonistic community interactions.

    ABC transporter functions as a pacemaker for sequestration of plant glucosides in leaf beetles

    Anja S Strauss, Sven Peters ... Antje Burse
    A transport protein enables leaf beetle larvae to take up and store plant toxins and use them as part of their own defense strategy.

    Quantitative analysis of auxin sensing in leaf primordia argues against proposed role in regulating leaf dorsoventrality

    Neha Bhatia, Henrik Åhl ... Marcus G Heisler
    Top-bottom patterning of leaves is not specified by an asymmetry in the distribution of the plant hormone auxin, in contrast to a previous proposal.

    Low wnt/β-catenin signaling determines leaky vessels in the subfornical organ and affects water homeostasis in mice

    Fabienne Benz, Viraya Wichitnaowarat ... Stefan Liebner
    Endothelial tightening by augmenting low level Wnt/β-catenin activity in vessels of the mouse subfornical organ, influences neuronal activation in water-deprived mice, linking endothelial barrier properties to neuro-vascular coupling.

    Host autophagy machinery is diverted to the pathogen interface to mediate focal defense responses against the Irish potato famine pathogen

    Yasin F Dagdas, Pooja Pandey ... Tolga O Bozkurt
    Defense-related selective autophagy mediated by the antimicrobial autophagy cargo receptor NBR1/Joka2 is diverted to pathogen penetration sites to restrict plant colonization by the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora infestans.

    Mitochondrial copper and phosphate transporter specificity was defined early in the evolution of eukaryotes

    Xinyu Zhu, Aren Boulet ... Paul A Cobine
    Ancient evolutionary signatures reveal mechanistic details of substrate specificity in copper-transporting mitochondria carrier family proteins.

    Sodium channels implement a molecular leaky integrator that detects action potentials and regulates neuronal firing

    Marco A Navarro, Autoosa Salari ... Lorin S Milescu
    Kinetic interactions between sodium channels and auxiliary factors create a molecular computational engine that can sense and regulate cellular excitability.

    Combining growth-promoting genes leads to positive epistasis in Arabidopsis thaliana

    Hannes Vanhaeren, Nathalie Gonzalez ... Dirk Inzé
    Pairwise combinations of growth-promoting genes regulating distinct cellular mechanisms lead to synergistic effects on leaf growth, and hence greatly increased leaf size.

    Environmental DNA from archived leaves reveals widespread temporal turnover and biotic homogenization in forest arthropod communities

    Henrik Krehenwinkel, Sven Weber ... Michael Veith
    Environmental DNA from highly standardized leaf sample time series suggests no localized species losses, but biotic turnover and homogenization, as main drivers of forest insect decline.

    Cell type boundaries organize plant development

    Monica Pia Caggiano, Xiulian Yu ... Marcus G Heisler
    Leaf position, shape and orientation are pre-patterned by cell type boundaries in the shoot meristem.
