Intercellular communication mediated by CLAVATA3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION-RELATED (CLE) peptides and their receptors is crucial for plant development and environmental adaptation. In this study, 45 and 89 were identified in and × , respectively, and, together with the 52 in , the chromosome localization, gene and protein characteristics, collinearity and gene duplication events, cis-acting regulatory elements in promoters and evolutionary relationships of in these three poplar species were analyzed. The of three poplar species were divided into four subfamilies. Among them, the in subfamilies I, II and IV were A-type , while those in subfamily III were B-type . During the evolutionary process of poplar, the selection pressure faced by whole-genome duplication or segmental duplication was purifying selection, and the duplication events led to the expansion of the family in poplar. The exogenous addition of a certain concentration of poplar CLE13 peptides inhibits the root growth of and poplar and simultaneously reduces the expression levels of and in the roots. In addition, drought stress induces the expression of . The overexpression of significantly enhances the osmotic and drought tolerance in . These results have provided valuable information for further research on the molecular mechanisms of CLE peptide signaling pathways in the woody model plant poplar regarding plant growth and stress resistance.

The genus , which includes both wild and cultivated species such as and , represents a diverse genetic pool with significant agricultural value. In this study, we present a high-quality, haplotype-resolved, chromosome-level genome assembly for s (hereinafter referred to as 'Deyangshi'), an autotetraploid wild species notable for its short juvenile phase, by integrating high-fidelity single-molecule, nanopore sequencing, and high-throughput chromosome conformation capture techniques. The assembled genome size is ~3.

The (TGACG motif-binding factor) transcription factors are integral to root growth and development, and are pivotal in mediating plant responses to abiotic stresses. Nonetheless, their role in the nutrient absorption processes of banana plants has not been extensively investigated. This research conducted a comprehensive analysis of the gene family, emphasizing their physicochemical characteristics, phylogenetic relationships, gene duplication events, promoter cis-regulatory elements and protein interaction networks.

Hexokinases (HXKs) in plants are multifunctional enzymes that not only phosphorylate hexose but also function as glucose sensors, integrating nutrient, light, and hormone signaling networks to regulate cell metabolism and signaling pathways, thereby controlling growth and development in response to environmental changes. To date, limited information is available regarding the of foxtail millet ( L.).
