The structural-functional organization of cotyledon parenchyma cells of 6-day soybean (Glycine max L.) seedlings that were grown on board the space Shuttle Columbia (STS-87) have been studied. The purafil (KMnO4) was used in the experiment for the removing of some part of ethylene that secretes out from seedlings. There were four variants of the experiment: ground control (+purafil), ground control (-purafil), microgravity (+purafil) and microgravity (-purafil). The electron microscopy, srereological, and pyroantimonate cytochemical methods have been used. It is established the some indices of changes of storage substances in cotyledon parenchyma cells under influence of microgravity. It is displayed in the change of cell ultrastructure, the decrease of relative volume of storage cytoplasmic lipid bodies, a disappearance of storage protein body into vacuole and the redistribution of ionized calcium in cell. It was supposed that microgravity is influenced on the acceleration of storage substances catabolism.

Cis-regulatory elements (CREs) precisely control spatiotemporal gene expression in cells. Using a spatially resolved single-cell atlas of gene expression with chromatin accessibility across ten soybean tissues, we identified 103 distinct cell types and 303,199 accessible chromatin regions (ACRs). Nearly 40% of the ACRs showed cell-type-specific patterns and were enriched for transcription factor (TF) motifs defining diverse cell identities.

Comprehensive utilization of cottonseeds is limited by the presence of pigment glands and its inclusion gossypol. The ideal cotton has glandless seeds but a glanded plant, a trait found in only a few Australian wild cotton species, including Gossypium bickii. Introgression of this trait into cultivated species has proved to be difficult.

Beech seeds are produced irregularly, and there is a need for long-term storage of these seeds for forest management practices. Accumulated reactive oxygen species broadly oxidize molecules, including amino acids, such as methionine, thereby contributing to decreased seed viability. Methionine oxidation can be reversed by the activity of methionine sulfoxide reductases (Msrs), which are enzymes involved in the regulation of many developmental processes and stress responses.
