The PLANT CYSTEINE OXIDASE (PCO) N-degron pathway contributes to oxygen sensing in plants. Here the authors identify HYPOXIA TRANSDUCER1 (HYT1) as a substrate of PCO and show it forms a coherent feed-...

VERNALIZATION2 (VRN2) is a flowering plant-specific subunit of the polycomb-repressive complex 2 (PRC2), a conserved eukaryotic holoenzyme that repres…

This study reveals how a functional hypoxic microenvironment enclosing the shoot apical meristem arises through respiratory oxygen consumption and is stabilized by a cuticle-like diffusion barrier and...

Barley's adaptation to rainfall patterns is associated with genetic variations that contribute to controlling seed germination after flooding.

While the molecular mechanisms mediating submergence tolerance have been extensively studied, those underpinning age-dependent resilience remain poorly characterized. In Arabidopsis thaliana, submerge...

Short summary:This study investigates the evolution of the low-oxygen response in land plants mediated by group VII Ethylene Response Factors (ERFVIIs). We identified conserved transcriptional signatu...

Abstract. Waterlogging is a major abiotic stress that plants encounter as a result of climate change impacts. Peach is very sensitive to hypoxia during wat
