Embryonic development requires a correct balancing of maternal and paternal genetic information. This balance is mediated by genomic imprinting, an epigenetic mechanism that leads to parent-of-origin-dependent gene expression. The parental conflict (

Historic yield advances in the major crops have, to a large extent, been achieved by selection for improved productivity of groups of plant individuals such as high-density stands. Research suggests that such improved group productivity depends on �

Species-specific gamete recognition is needed to maintain species boundaries. Here, Müller et al. show that ARTUMES regulates pollen tube recognition between different Arabidopsisspecies, representing the first gene known to exclusively influence in

SummaryIn plant communities, diversity often increases community productivity and functioning, but the specific underlying drivers are difficult to identify. Most ecological theories attribute the positive diversity effects to complementary niches oc

Summary Establishing the embryonic body plan of multicellular organisms relies on precisely orchestrated cell divisions coupled with pattern formation, which, in animals, are regulated by Polycomb group (PcG) proteins. The conserved Polycomb Repressi
