Journal Article
Plackett, A. R. G., Powers, S. J., Phillips, A. L., Wilson, Z. A., Hedden, P., & Thomas, S. G. (2018). The early inflorescence of Arabidopsis thaliana demonstrates positional effects in floral organ growth and meristem patterning. Plant Reproduction, 31(2), https://doi.org/10.1007/s00497-017-0320-3

Most flowering plants, including the genetic model Arabidopsis thaliana, produce multiple flowers in sequence from a reproductive shoot apex to form a flower spike (inflorescence). The development of individual flowers on an Arabidopsis inflorescence...

Mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1 overexpression increases yield in Nicotiana Tabacum under drought stress by improving source and sink metabolism (2017)
Journal Article
Barreto, P., Yassitepe, J. E., Wilson, Z. A., & Arruda, P. (2017). Mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1 overexpression increases yield in Nicotiana Tabacum under drought stress by improving source and sink metabolism. Frontiers in Plant Science, 8, Article 1836. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2017.01836

Mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCPs) sustain mitochondrial respiration independent of intracellular ATP concentration. Uncoupled respiration is particularly beneficial under stress conditions, during which both photosynthesis and respiration may...

Harnessing diversity from ecosystems to crops to genes (2017)
Journal Article
Buchanan-Wollaston, V., Wilson, Z. A., Tardieu, F., Beynon, J., & Denby, K. (2017). Harnessing diversity from ecosystems to crops to genes. Food and Energy Security, 6(1), https://doi.org/10.1002/fes3.106

To feed humanity, while maintaining a stable and diverse biosphere, crop science needs to adapt to an open research environment where genetic resources and the data demonstrating the environments in which they are effective are freely shared. The cha... Read More about Harnessing diversity from ecosystems to crops to genes.
