It has long been recognized that hybridization and polyploidy are prominent processes in plant evolution. Although classically as significant speciation adaptation, recognition of the importance interspecific gene flow dramatically increased during genomics era, concomitant with an unending flood empirical examples, or without genome doubling. Interspecific is thus increasingly thought to lead evolutionary innovation diversification, via adaptive introgression, homoploid hybrid allopolyploid speciation. Less well understood, however, suite genetic genomic mechanisms set motion by merger differentiated genomes, temporal scale over which recombinational complexity mediated might be expressed exposed natural selection. We focus on these issues here, considering types molecular saltational event between two diverged species, either doubling, how various can contribute novel phenotypes. Genetic include infusion new alleles genesis structural variation including translocations inversions, homoeologous exchanges, transposable element mobilization insertional effects, presence-absence copy number variation. Polyploidy generates massive transcriptomic regulatory alteration, presumably disrupted stoichiometries factors, small RNAs other interactions cascade from single-gene expression change up through entire networks transformed modules. highlight both combinatorial possibilities range scales such generated, selection drift.

Epigenetics has emerged as an important research field for crop improvement under the on-going climatic changes. Heritable epigenetic changes can arise independently of DNA sequence alterations and have been associated with altered gene expression transmitted phenotypic variation. By modulating plant development physiological responses to environmental conditions, diversity—naturally, genetically, chemically, or environmentally induced—can help optimise traits in era challenged by global climate change. Beyond variation, modifications may contribute breeding providing useful markers allowing use epigenome diversity predict performance increase final production. Given difficulties transferring knowledge mechanisms from model plants crops, various strategies emerged. Among those are modelling frameworks dedicated predicting epigenetically controlled-adaptive traits, epigenetics vitro regeneration accelerate breeding, specific marks that modulate interest. The key challenge agriculture faces 21st century is production speeding up resilient species. Therefore, provides fundamental molecular information potential direct applications enhancement, tolerance, adaptation within context

Summary The plant immune system protects against pests and diseases. recognition of stress‐related molecular patterns triggers localised responses, which are often followed by longer‐lasting systemic priming and/or up‐regulation defences. In some cases, this induced resistance (IR) can be transmitted to following generations. Such transgenerational IR is gradually reversed in the absence stress at a rate that proportional severity disease experienced previous This review outlines mechanisms epigenetic responses pathogen infection shape across expanding time scales.

Leaf senescence is the last stage of leaf development and an orderly biological process accompanied by degradation macromolecules nutrient recycling, which contributes to plant fitness. Forward genetic mutant screening reverse studies senescence-associated genes (SAGs) have revealed that a genetically regulated process, initiation progression are influenced array internal external factors. Recently, multi-omics techniques subjected multiple layers regulation, including chromatin, transcriptional post-transcriptional, as well translational post-translational levels. Although impressive progress has been made in research, especially identification functional analysis large number SAGs crop plants, we still not unraveled mystery senescence, there some urgent scientific questions this field, such when initiated how signals transmitted. This paper reviews recent advances regulation on post-transcriptional alternative splicing.

Clubroot caused by the protist Plasmodiophora brassicae is a major disease affecting cultivated Brassicaceae. Using combination of quantitative trait locus (QTL) fine mapping, CRISPR-Cas9 validation, and extensive analyses DNA sequence methylation patterns, we revealed that two adjacent neighboring NLR (nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat) genes AT5G47260 AT5G47280 cooperate in controlling broad-spectrum partial resistance to root pathogen P. Arabidopsis they are epigenetically regulated. The variation not associated with any nucleotide or transposable element presence/absence variants stably inherited. Variations at Pb-At5.2 QTL widespread across accessions correlate negatively variations expression genes. Our study demonstrates natural, stable, transgenerationally inherited epigenetic can play an important role shaping plant pathogens modulating immune receptors.

The contribution of epigenetic variation to phenotypic is unclear. Imprinted genes, because their strong association with modifications, represent an opportunity for the discovery such phenomena. In mammals and flowering plants, a subset genes are expressed from only one parental allele in process called gene imprinting. Imprinting associated differential DNA methylation chromatin modifications between alleles. plants imprinting occurs seed tissue - endosperm. Proper endosperm development essential production viable seeds. We previously showed that Arabidopsis thaliana intraspecific correlated naturally occurring polymorphisms. Here, we investigated mechanisms function allele-specific class IV homeodomain leucine zipper (HD-ZIP) transcription factor HDG3. imprinted strains, HDG3 primarily methylated paternally inherited allele. manipulated state endogenous non-imprinted strain demonstrated proximal transposable element sufficient promote expression Gain was earlier cellularization changes weight. These results indicate alone explain demonstrate epialleles can underlie phenotypes.
