The paper investigates how combined heat and drought stress affects chromatin accessibility and abscisic acid biosynthesis in potato, revealing transcriptional memory of stress responses.

The paper introduces LongPolyASE, a framework for allele-specific gene and isoform analysis in polyploids using long-read RNA-seq, demonstrating its application on rice and potato.

This study predicts potato yield using drone and environmental data early in the growing season, achieving over 80% accuracy with models trained on limited data.

The paper develops a genome-scale metabolic model for potato to study growth-defence trade-offs by integrating primary and secondary metabolism and applying transcriptomics data from stress experiments.

The paper identifies StPTI5 as a transcription factor that regulates plant-microbe interactions by modulating immune responses and microbial colonization in potato.

This study shows that ethylene signaling is essential for mycorrhiza-induced resistance in tomato against chewing herbivores, revealing hormone crosstalk as central to this defense mechanism.

This paper presents a haplotype-resolved genome assembly for the tetraploid potato cultivar Desiree, along with annotations and epigenetic data, providing a resource for potato research.

The paper unifies potato gene models using an Apollo web server and provides a collaborative genome browser for annotation updates.

The paper introduces Stress Knowledge Map, a resource with two knowledge graphs for plant stress responses, and demonstrates its use in hypothesis generation and analysis.

pISA-tree organizes life science research data using a standardized directory structure based on the ISA model, enabling metadata generation and integration with bioinformatics pipelines and repositories.

The paper presents the genome of the Colorado potato beetle to study its rapid evolutionary changes, herbivory adaptations, and insecticide resistance mechanisms.
