SUC2 sucrose transporter is required for leaf apoplasmic sucrose levels. Consequences for phloem loading strategies

This study investigates the role of SUC2 in apoplasmic sucrose levels and its impact on phloem loading strategies in Arabidopsis, revealing its influence on foliar carbohydrate storage and interactions with symplasmic pathways.

Chronic Pod-Mod E-Cigarette Aerosol Exposure Induces Aortic Dysfunction in Hypercholesterolemic Mice: Role of Oxidative Stress and Inflammation

Mapping the unicellular transcriptome of the ascending thoracic aorta to changes in mechanosensing and mechanoadaptation during aging

This study uses single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze aging-related changes in the ascending thoracic aorta, revealing mechanosensing and mechanoadaptation alterations linked to immune and vascular changes.

Molecular basis of differential adventitious rooting competence in poplar genotypes

The paper identifies molecular differences in adventitious rooting competence between two poplar genotypes and shows that MYC2 expression levels influence rooting ability.

Jasmonate inhibits adventitious root initiation through transcriptional repression of CKX1 and activation of RAP2.6L transcription factor in Arabidopsis

The paper identifies JA-CK interactions that regulate adventitious root initiation by repressing CKX1 and activating RAP2.6L in Arabidopsis.

A vacuolar hexose transport is required for xylem development in the inflorescence stem of Arabidopsis.

This study shows that SWEET16-mediated hexose transport at the tonoplast is essential for xylem cell division and secondary cell wall formation in Arabidopsis inflorescence stems.

Red light controls adventitious root regeneration by modulating hormone homeostasis in Picea abies seedlings

This study shows red light promotes adventitious root initiation in Norway spruce seedlings by modulating hormone homeostasis, specifically reducing jasmonate and cytokinin levels.

ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTOR 115 integrates jasmonate and cytokinin signaling machineries to repress adventitious rooting in Arabidopsis

The paper identifies ERF115 as a transcription factor that integrates jasmonate and cytokinin signaling to repress adventitious rooting in Arabidopsis.

A bacterial assay for rapid screening of IAA catabolic enzymes

This paper introduces a bacterial assay to rapidly screen IAA catabolic enzymes by measuring enzymatic products directly from bacterial cultures without protein purification.

Conifers exhibit a characteristic inactivation of auxin to maintain tissue homeostasis

The paper investigates IAA inactivation pathways in conifers, finding that oxidative and conjugative pathways differ in their contribution to auxin homeostasis compared to Arabidopsis.

Molecular framework for TIR1/AFB-Aux/IAA-dependent auxin sensing controlling adventitious rooting in Arabidopsis

The paper identifies TIR1 and AFB2 as positive regulators and IAA6, IAA9, and IAA17 as negative regulators of adventitious root formation in Arabidopsis, revealing their role in modulating jasmonate homeostasis.

Synchrotron FTIR and Raman spectroscopy provide unique spectral fingerprints for Arabidopsis floral stem vascular tissues

The paper uses synchrotron FTIR and Raman spectroscopy to analyze cell wall composition in Arabidopsis floral stem vascular tissues, showing that SWEET gene disruption affects phloem and xylem cell walls differently.
