Cold temperature alters meiotic recombination in Arabidopsis by weakening SNI1/NSE5, a chromosome architecture factor that normally limits class II crossovers and shapes where genetic exchange occurs.

The escalating frequency and intensity of recent droughts threaten global crop production and food security. Although drought priming is crucial for plant drought resilience, the mechanisms imparting....

Abstract. Low nitrogen (LN) and high salt stress are major constraints for plant growth and development. Under LN stress, plants typically show root elonga

Cold temperature alters meiotic recombination in Arabidopsis by weakening SNI1/NSE5, a chromosome architecture factor that normally limits class II crossovers and shapes where genetic exchange occurs.
