Evolution and functional characterization of a biosynthetic gene cluster for saponin biosynthesis in Sapindaceae #correspondence#MolecularPlant https://t.co/WYaejyXq6e
Thrilled to share. TBtools-II, an upgrade of TBtools, is out, with more advanced functions and the introduction of the plugin store. Everyone can be the developer of TBtools now. https://t.co/QJpPjJMdab. The first publication of TBtools has got >6,000 citations since 2020.
#MimulusPropaganda The invincible @_MeeiLLL strikes again. She found the speciation gene in monkeyflowers, YUP, is a taxon-specific non-coding gene producing phased siRNAs. YUP derived from a partial inverted duplication of a source gene that has nothing to do with flower color.
Great honor to be part of this wonderful work. Big congrats and thanks to @colreeze and @_MeeiLLL . A really great demonstration of siRNA (phasiRNA) function in plants.
A long noncoding RNA regulates color variation in monkeyflowers, a new study finds. The results highlight an unexpected mechanism for petal pigmentation evolution.
Read that research and more this week in Science: https://t.co/9e2kWyWlGz
Two divergent haplotypes from a highly heterozygous lychee genome suggest independent domestication events for early and late-maturing cultivars (Hu et al.) https://t.co/kZJ4Jhpk5q
Absolutely beautiful work on the developmental process, molecular basis, and ecological function of pseudonectaries in Nigella (Ranunculaceae) flowers. These authors have taken this super interesting but challenging system to a new level https://t.co/CgX9SzhFqi
