TAM regulates the translation of meiotic cell cycle genes under heat stress to prevent premature meiotic exit and ensure ploidy consistency in the natural

Abstract. Epigenetic mechanisms are key regulators of genomic integrity and genic expression. Emerging evidence shows that epigenetic dynamism is an import

Abdrakhmanov et al. identify a lineage-specific autophagy receptor module that mediates the selective recycling of P-bodies in the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha. The conserved decapping factors EDC4 and DCP1 link RNA granules to autophagy, and the liverwort receptor EDC4 can promote autophagy-dependent α-synuclein degradation in human cells.

Cleavage by pathogen-derived proteases of an engineered chimeric protein activates its plant immune receptor component, enabling broad-spectrum resistance to pathogens in plants.

ATG8ylation of the tonoplast, triggered by cell wall damage, acts as a vital vacuolar quality control mechanism that safeguards vacuolar integrity and ensures cell survival under stress.

Temperatures above the optimum growth temperature affect seed development, producing seeds with ruptured seed coats. This phenotype is associated with accelerated embryo development. However, the mole...
