In recent years, Marchantia polymorpha has emerged as a useful model plant system 1 for studying terpene biosynthesis and accumulation within specialized storage structures known as oil bodies (OBs) 2 ...
Sunlight provides the energy needed for photosynthesis and growth, but it also exposes plants to harmful ultraviolet-B (UV-B) ...
A new study in Current Biology identified genetic variants in Marchantia polymorpha that enable climate adaptation. By integrating genomic and climate data, researchers uncovered genes linked to ...
Plants regulate their development with a distinct group of molecular players. ROP proteins, a group of plant-specific proteins, are known to control plant tissue formation. Now, Hugh Mulvey and Liam ...
