Abstract Key Message We summarize recent genome editing studies that have focused on
the examination (or reexamination) of plant architectural phenotypes in cereals and the …

One of the major challenges in today's agriculture is to achieve enhanced plant growth and
biomass even under adverse environmental conditions. Recent advancements in genetics …

The developmental functions of miR156-SPL regulatory network have been extensively
studied in Arabidopsis, but the downstream genes regulated by each SPL have not been …

Despite the high economic and ecological importance of forests, our knowledge of the
adaptive evolution of leaf traits remains very limited. Euphrates poplar (Populus euphratica) …

Abstract In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), reduced expression of the transcriptional
regulator PEAPOD2 (PPD2) results in propeller-like rosettes with enlarged and dome …

Plants are strongly influenced by their surrounding environment, which makes them reliable
indicators of climate and ecology. The relationship between climate, ecology, plant traits and …

Recent studies have demonstrated that grapevine (Vitis spp.) leaf shape can be quantified
using digital approaches which indicate phylogenetic signal in leaf shape, discernible …

Understanding how root systems modulate shoot system phenotypes is a fundamental
question in plant biology and will be useful in developing resilient agricultural crops. Grafting …

The new variety Betula pendula 'Dalecarlica', selected from Betula pendula, shows high
ornamental value owing to its lobed leaf shape. In this study, to identify the genetic …

Leaf development is a sequential process that involves initiation, determination, transition,
expansion and maturation. Many coding genes and a few non-coding small RNAs (sRNAs) …
