Plant intra-individual and inter-individual variation can be determined by the epigenome, a
set of covalent modifications of DNA and chromatin that can alter genome structure and …

Recent evidence sheds light on the peculiar type of plant intelligence. Plants have
developed complex molecular networks that allow them to remember, choose, and make …

The chromatin of flowering plants exhibits a wide range of sequence variants of the core and
linker histones. Recent studies have demonstrated that specific histone variant enrichment …

The basic unit of chromatin, the nucleosome, is an octamer of four core histone proteins
(H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) and serves as a fundamental regulatory unit in all DNA-templated …

Chromatin plays a crucial role in genome compaction and is fundamental for regulating
multiple nuclear processes. Nucleosomes, the basic building blocks of chromatin, are …

Histone chaperones and chromatin remodelers control nucleosome dynamics, which are
essential for transcription, replication, and DNA repair. The histone chaperone Anti …

Background Plants memorize previous pathogen attacks and are “primed” to produce a
faster and stronger defense response, which is critical for defense against pathogens. In …

The organization of DNA with histone proteins into chromatin is fundamental for the
regulation of gene expression. Incorporation of different histone variants into the …

Organization of the genetic information into chromatin plays an important role in the
regulation of all DNA template-based reactions. The incorporation of different variant …

Heterochromatin is essential for genomic integrity and stability in eukaryotes. The
mechanisms that regulate meiotic heterochromatin formation remain largely undefined …
