Plants undergo a major physiological change as they transition from vegetative growth to
reproductive development. This transition is a result of responses to various endogenous …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous∼ 22 nt RNAs that can play important regulatory
roles in animals and plants by targeting mRNAs for cleavage or translational repression …

Salinity is detrimental to plant growth, crop production and food security worldwide. Excess
salt triggers increases in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration, which activate Ca2+-binding proteins …

The relative ease, speed, and biological scope of clustered regularly interspaced short
palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated Protein9 (Cas9)-based reagents for …

Increasing nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is critical to improve crop yield, reduce N fertilizer
demand and alleviate environmental pollution. N remobilization is a key component of NUE …

Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are∼ 21-nucleotide noncoding RNAs that have been
identified in both animals and plants. Although in animals there is direct evidence …

Plants elaborate a vast array of natural products, many of which have evolved to confer
selective advantage against microbial attack. Recent advances in molecular technology …

Plants with altered microRNA metabolism have pleiotropic developmental defects, but direct
evidence for microRNAs regulating specific aspects of plant morphogenesis has been …

In the long evolutionary history, plant has evolved elaborate regulatory network to control
functional gene expression for surviving and thriving, such as transcription factor‐regulated …

Brassinosteroids regulate plant growth and development through a protein complex that
includes the leucine-rich repeat receptor-like protein kinase (LRR-RLK) brassinosteroid …
