- New Letter: "Interspecific competition negates CO2 benefits for most plant species" rdcu.be/fxOGi Although community biomass increases under elevated CO2, dominant species capture most gains, masking substantial variation in species-level responses.
- New Article: "The dual trxG/PcG protein ULTRAPETALA1 modulates H3K27me3 and directly enhances POLYCOMB REPRESSIVE COMPLEX 2 activity for fine-tuned reproductive transitions" rdcu.be/fxOEJ With News&Views: "ULTRA(PETALA)-boosted plant Polycomb" rdcu.be/fxOET
- New OA Article: "A VIM2/4 deletion, and premature truncations of CMT2 and FBX5, drive DNA methylation changes after colonization of a novel habitat" rdcu.be/fxOCc Cape Verde Arabidopsis rapidly evolved altered DNA methylation patterns through high-impact mutations.
- New News & Views: "A grass-specific route to salicylic acid" rdcu.be/fxOA1 Two complementary studies in rice identify the missing SA biosynthesis enzymes and reveal that grasses and eudicots evolved distinct biochemical solutions to produce the same defence hormone.
