Genomics has transformed our understanding of the genetic architecture of traits and the
genetic variation present in plants. Here, we present a review of how RNA-seq can be …

Plants, like many other living organisms, have an internal timekeeper, the circadian clock,
which allows them to anticipate photoperiod rhythms and environmental stimuli to optimally …

Circadian clocks are biological timekee** systems that coordinate genetic, metabolic and
physiological behaviors with the external day–night cycle. The clock in plants relies on the …

The metabolic fluxes throughout the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCAC) are inhibited in the light
by the mitochondrial thioredoxin (TRX) system. However, it is unclear how this system …

The capacity to perceive and memorise adverse environmental conditions is pivotal for the
survival of any biological system. Despite being sessile, plants do it with maestri. Plants can …

Smart greenhouse farming has emerged as one of the solutions to global food security,
where farming productivity can be managed and improved in an automated manner. While it …
