Conserved RGF1 peptide signaling regulates root meristem development through ROS in Arabidopsis and rice
Our study identifies OsRGF1-1 as the rice counterpart of Arabidopsis RGF1. Rice Osrgf1-1 mutants have shorter seminal roots, smaller root meristems and less superoxide.

RGF signaling bridges root development and
nonlethal thermal stress adaptation.
RGF signaling bridges root development and nonlethal thermal stress adaptation
Our study shows that nonlethal high temperature (31°C) restricts root growth by suppressing the RGF–RGFR–PLT2 developmental pathway rather than by triggering canonical heat-shock responses.

pxGPT: a schema-constrained multimodal large language model
framework for plant phenotyping.
pxGPT turns plant photos into clear records with AI
A plant breeder might describe a plant like this: “The leaves are round, slightly wrinkled, and bright green.” These notes are useful. But looking at many plants and writing each record takes time. Different words for the same feature also make the notes hard to compare.

Water as a Compass: Hydrostimulation-­Triggered Aerial Root Growth in Phalaenopsis aphrodite
Water as a Compass: Hydrostimulation-­Triggered Aerial Root Growth in Phalaenopsis aphrodite

Epiphytic orchids have evolved specialized adaptive strategies, such as aerial roots with water-­ absorbing velamen tissues, to cope with water-­ scarce and nutrient-­ deficient habitats. Our previous study revealed that the aerial roots of the epiphytic orchid Phalaenopsis aphrodite lack a gravitropic response,


Transposable elements drive evolution and perturb gene expression in Brassica rapa and B. oleracea
Transposable elements drive evolution and perturb gene expression in Brassica rapa and B. oleracea
Transposable elements (TEs) make up over half of Brassica genomes, yet their role in evolution and gene regulation has remained elusive.
