This study functionally characterizes candidate sex determination genes in Salix purpurea using Arabidopsis, supporting ARR17 and GATA15 as master regulators and identifying downstream transcription factors.

This paper introduces a split selectable marker system using inteins for Agrobacterium-mediated co-transformation in plants, enabling the simultaneous insertion of multiple genes into Arabidopsis and poplar.

This study investigates the role of PdWND1B in Populus wood formation and biofuel conversion by over-expressing or silencing it, showing effects on biomass, cell wall composition, and sugar release efficiency.

This study uses GWAS to identify candidate genes regulating in planta regeneration in Populus trichocarpa, finding over 200 genes involved in cell adhesion, stress signaling, and hormone pathways.

This study develops plant-based biosensors to detect CRISPR/Cas tools in real-time, demonstrating their effectiveness in detecting various CRISPR functions in multiple plant species.

This paper develops a split-nCas9 system using intein-mediated reassembly for efficient base editing in plants.

This study investigates how host auxin signaling and transport components mediate root architecture changes induced by beneficial microbes, identifying key proteins involved in the process.

The paper infers a gene regulatory network in Kalanchoë fedtschenkoi to explore the link between circadian clock and CAM metabolism, revealing regulatory connections and potential applications for crop engineering.
