Settling the debate: Plum ‘yews’ are in a separate family to yews
New genomic study assembled the plastid genomes of plum yews to understand their evolution.
Is shattering in Aegilops longissima controlled by overlapping gene expression?
Study authors argue that suppression of one or both genes in different regions of the rachis prevented disarticulation.
Advancing crop growth models using genotype-specific parameters
Incorporating genotype-specific parameters and realistic trait physiology will advance crop growth models.

An update on major microarray and RNA-seq studies, exploration of data integration approaches using gene coexpression network, and outline of important web resources.
Call for a new paradigm for crop improvement
The use of mechanistic crop models can optimize the efficiency of breeding programs.
Chromosomal changes more important than niche differentiation in a Pulmonaria hybrid
The locally abundant hybrid species is well-defined, but shows weak niche differentiation from its progenitors.
Research uncovers a gene that gives pollen grains their unique shapes
The mysterious and complex patterns on pollen walls may self-organise – and far earlier than expected.
Target enzymes for improved photosynthesis
Modeling the activity of enzymes in the Calvin Benson Cycle identifies key enzymes to improve photosynthesis.
