Integrating cryo-OrbiSIMS with computational modelling and metadynamics simulations enhances RNA structure prediction at atomic resolution (2024)
Journal Article
Ward, S., Childs, A., Staley, C., Waugh, C., Watts, J. A., Kotowska, A. M., …Borkar, A. N. (2024). Integrating cryo-OrbiSIMS with computational modelling and metadynamics simulations enhances RNA structure prediction at atomic resolution. Nature Communications, 15(1), Article 4367. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-024-48694-3

The 3D architecture of RNAs governs their molecular interactions, chemical reactions, and biological functions. However, a large number of RNAs and their protein complexes remain poorly understood due to the limitations of conventional structural bio...

Application of deep learning for the analysis of stomata: A review of current methods and future directions (2024)
Journal Article
Gibbs, J. A., & Burgess, A. J. (2024). Application of deep learning for the analysis of stomata: A review of current methods and future directions. Journal of Experimental Botany, https://doi.org/10.1093/jxb/erae207

Plant physiology and metabolism relies on the function of stomata, structures on the surface of above ground organs, which facilitate the exchange of gases with the atmosphere. The morphology of the guard cells and corresponding pore which make up th...

The first intron of ARF7 is required for expression in root tips (2024)
Journal Article
Han, J., Welch, T., Voß, U., Vernoux, T., Bhosale, R., & Bishopp, A. (2024). The first intron of ARF7 is required for expression in root tips. iScience, 27(6), Article 109936. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.isci.2024.109936

Auxin regulates plant growth and development through the transcription factors of the AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR (ARF) gene family. ARF7 is one of five activators that bind DNA and elicit downstream transcriptional responses. In roots, ARF7 regulates grow...

Interplay between developmental cues and rhizosphere signals from mycorrhizal fungi shape root anatomy, impacting crop productivity (2024)
Journal Article
Grondin, A., Li, M., Bhosale, R., Sawers, R., & Schneider, H. M. (2024). Interplay between developmental cues and rhizosphere signals from mycorrhizal fungi shape root anatomy, impacting crop productivity. Plant and Soil, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11104-024-06611-z

Background: The rhizosphere is the interface between roots and the soil and the site of nutrient and water uptake for plant growth. Root anatomy and the physical, chemical, and biological components of the rhizosphere interact to influence plant grow...

Ethylene regulates auxin-mediated root gravitropic machinery and controls root angle in cereal crops (2024)
Journal Article
Kong, X., Xiong, Y., Song, X., Wadey, S., Yu, S., Rao, J., …Huang, G. (2024). Ethylene regulates auxin-mediated root gravitropic machinery and controls root angle in cereal crops. Plant Physiology, Article kiae134. https://doi.org/10.1093/plphys/kiae134

Root angle is a critical factor in optimizing the acquisition of essential resources from different soil depths. The regulation of root angle relies on the auxin-mediated root gravitropism machinery. While the influence of ethylene on auxin levels is... Read More about Ethylene regulates auxin-mediated root gravitropic machinery and controls root angle in cereal crops.

A sustainable supply of plant protein is critical for future generations and needs to be achieved while reducing green house gas emissions from agriculture and increasing agricultural resilience in the face of climate volatility. Agricultural diversi... Read More about A genomic toolkit for winged bean Psophocarpus tetragonolobus.

Detecting iodine deficiency risks from dietary transitions using shopping data (2024)
Journal Article
Mansilla, R., Long, G., Welham, S., Harvey, J., Lukinova, E., Nica-Avram, G., …Goulding, J. (2024). Detecting iodine deficiency risks from dietary transitions using shopping data. Scientific Reports, 14(1), Article 1017. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-50180-7

Plant-based product replacements are gaining popularity. However, the long-term health implications remain poorly understood, and available methods, though accurate, are expensive and burdensome, impeding the study of sufficiently large cohorts. To i...
