    Positive selection and relaxed purifying selection contribute to rapid evolution of male-biased genes in a dioecious flowering plant

    Lei Zhao, Wei Zhou ... Hong-Tao Li
    Computational analyses, for the first time in plants, reveal how male-biased genes evolve faster than female-biased and unbiased genes.

    The tRNA thiolation-mediated translational control is essential for plant immunity

    Xueao Zheng, Hanchen Chen ... Shunping Yan
    The transfer RNA thiolation modification is required for the efficient translation of the master immune regulator NPR1 in plants.

    Unprecedented yet gradual nature of first millennium CE intercontinental crop plant dispersal revealed in ancient Negev desert refuse

    Daniel Fuks, Yoel Melamed ... Ehud Weiss
    New archaeobotanical data from Negev Highland rubbish middens demonstrate that crop diversity in the Southern Levant expanded more during the first millennium CE than in any earlier period, yet with minimal consequences for consumption and production patterns.

    Glutaredoxin regulation of primary root growth is associated with early drought stress tolerance in pearl millet

    Carla de la Fuente, Alexandre Grondin ... Laurent Laplaze
    Increased primary root growth in pearl millet is correlated with early water stress tolerance, an important constraint in agrosystems in the Sahel, and is associated with the regulation of root cell elongation by a glutaredoxin.

    Soil-borne fungi alter the apoplastic purinergic signaling in plants by deregulating the homeostasis of extracellular ATP and its metabolite adenosine

    Christopher Kesten, Valentin Leitner ... Clara Sanchez-Rodriguez
    Biochemical and in vivo physiology imaging reveal that plant pathogens actively imbalance the apoplastic eAdo/eATP levels as a virulence mechanism.
