How the plasma membrane senses external heat-stress signals to communicate with chloroplasts
to orchestrate thermotolerance remains elusive. We identified a quantitative trait locus, …

Global warming threatens many aspects of human life 1 , 2 , for example, by reducing crop
yields 3 , 4 , 5 . Breeding heat-tolerant crops using genes conferring thermotolerance is a …

Grain size is an important component trait of grain yield, which is frequently threatened by
abiotic stress. However, little is known about how grain yield and abiotic stress tolerance are …

Grain number and size are interactive agronomic traits that determine grain yield. However,
the molecular mechanisms responsible for coordinating the trade-off between these traits …

Grain number is a flexible trait that strongly contributes to grain yield. In rice (Oryza sativa),
the OsMKKK10-OsMKK4-OsMPK6 cascade, which is negatively regulated by the dual-…

Grain size is one of the essential components determining rice yield and is a target for both
domestication and artificial breeding. Gibberellins (GAs) are diterpenoid phytohormones that …

Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the transient effects of air pollutants on
stroke morbidity and mortality using the meta-analytic approach. Methods Three databases …

Tea consumption has inconsistently been shown to be associated with the risk of type 2
diabetes (T2D). The aim of the present study was to conduct a dose–response meta-analysis of …

Rice panicle architecture determines the grain number per panicle and therefore impacts
grain yield. The OsER1–OsMKKK10–OsMKK4–OsMPK6 pathway shapes panicle architecture …
