Propagation through cuttings is a well-established and effective technique for plant multiplication. This study explores the regeneration of poplar roots using spatial transcriptomics to map a detailed developmental trajectory. Mapping of the time-series transcriptome data revealed notable alterations in gene expression during root development, particularly in the activation of cytokinin-responsive genes.

Despite its promise, sequencing length and gap filling remain significant challenges. This study optimized DNA extraction and library preparation, achieving DNA lengths exceeding 485 kb; average N50 read lengths of 80.

This review aims to comprehensively explore the potential relationships between various patterns and durations of breastfeeding and allergic diseases in offspring. We systematically searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, WOS databases, and Google Scholar for observational studies published up to March 30, 2023, that investigated the link between breastfeeding and allergies in offspring.

However, the functional roles of HD-ZIPs in abiotic stress tolerance and the underlying mechanisms remain relatively limited in . In this study, we isolated an HD-ZIP TF gene, , from and ectopically expressed it in Arabidopsis.

Brassinosteroids (BRs) play a key role in wood development, but little is known about the cellular and molecular processes that underlie wood formation in tree species. Here, we generated transgenic poplar lines with edited PdBRI1 genes, which are orthologs of Arabidopsis vascular-enriched BR receptors, and showed how inhibition of BR signaling influences wood development at the mRNA and/or proteome level.
