EDITORIAL The Plant Cell celebrates 30 years of publishing the best work in plant biology
Blog, Pubs Pages, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: News
By Sabeeha S. Merchant, Nancy A. Eckardt and Nancy Winchester
As Bob Goldberg, founding editor, noted upon the 20th anniversary of The Plant Cell in 2009 (Vol. 21, pp. 3–12), 1989 was a year of major change: not just for the world (“the Iron Curtain came down, the Berlin Wall crumbled, the…

A smut fungus of Brassicaceae plants uses conserved and unique strategies to manipulate perennial hosts ($) New Phytol.
Plant Science Research WeeklyBiotrophic phytopathogens manipulate living hosts for the procurement of nutrients essential for growth and reproduction. It is therefore critical for invading biotrophs to evade or suppress immune responses without impacting overall plant function. In a recent study published in New Phytologist (2019),…

Special Issue: Genome to Phenome (Plant Journal)
Plant Science Research WeeklyIt’s January, which seems to be a month of weather extremes for many “temperate” parts of the globe. Here’s an excellent collection to curl up with as you try to stay warm or cool and out of the elements. The issue includes free-to-access reviews focused on using genomic data (e.g., genome-wide…
