Journal Article
Bočaj, V., Pongrac, P., Fischer, S., & Likar, M. (2023). De novo transcriptome assembly of hyperaccumulating Noccaea praecox for gene discovery. Scientific Data, 10, Article 856. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-023-02776-x

Hyperaccumulators are a group of plant species that accumulate high concentrations of one or more metal(loid)s in their above-ground tissues without showing any signs of toxicity. Several hyperaccumulating species belong to the Brassicaceae family, a... Read More about De novo transcriptome assembly of hyperaccumulating Noccaea praecox for gene discovery.

Chasing the mechanisms of ecologically adaptive salinity tolerance (2023)
Journal Article
Busoms, S., Fischer, S., & Yant, L. (2023). Chasing the mechanisms of ecologically adaptive salinity tolerance. Plant Communications, 4(6), Article 100571. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.xplc.2023.100571

Plants adapted to challenging environments offer fascinating models of evolutionary change. Importantly, they also give information to meet our pressing need to develop resilient, low-input crops. With mounting environmental fluctuation—including tem... Read More about Chasing the mechanisms of ecologically adaptive salinity tolerance.

The influences of stomatal size and density on rice abiotic stress resilience (2023)
Journal Article
Caine, R. S., Harrison, E. L., Sloan, J., Flis, P. M., Fischer, S., Khan, M. S., …Croft, H. (2023). The influences of stomatal size and density on rice abiotic stress resilience. New Phytologist, 237(6), 2180-2195. https://doi.org/10.1111/nph.18704

A warming climate coupled with reductions in water availability and rising salinity are increasingly affecting rice (Oryza sativa) yields. Elevated temperatures combined with vapour pressure deficit (VPD) rises are causing stomatal closure, further r...
