The general phenylpropanoid metabolism generates an enormous array of secondary
metabolites based on the few intermediates of the shikimate pathway as the core unit. The …

Despite the increased access to high-quality plant genome sequences, the set of genes with
a known function remains far from complete. With the advent of novel bulk and single-cell …

Plant nucleotide-binding (NB) leucine-rich repeat (LRR) receptor (NLR) proteins function as
intracellular immune receptors that perceive the presence of pathogen-derived virulence …

The establishment of ordered neuronal connections is supposed to take place under the
control of specific cell adhesion molecules (CAM) which guide neuroblasts and axons to …

Epistasis between genes is traditionally studied with mutations that eliminate protein activity,
but most natural genetic variation is in cis-regulatory DNA and influences gene expression …

Salicylic acid (SA) is an important mediator of plant defense response. In Arabidopsis
(Arabidopsis thaliana), this compound was proposed to derive mainly from isochorismate …

Suppression of seed germination at supraoptimal high temperature (thermoinhibiton) during
summer is crucial for Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) to establish vegetative and …

Xyloglucans are the main hemicellulosic polysaccharides found in the primary cell walls of
dicots and nongraminaceous monocots, where they are thought to interact with cellulose to …

The resistant cherry tomato (Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme) line LC-95, derived
from an accession collected in Ecuador, harbors a natural allele (ol-2) that confers broad …

Regulation of protein turnover mediated by ZEITLUPE (ZTL) constitutes an important
mechanism of the circadian clock in Arabidopsis thaliana. Here, we report that FLAVIN …
