Background: Phosphate (Pi) limitation represents a primary constraint on crop production.…
A spliceophilin helps Arabidopsis adapt to heat stress
The Plant Cell: In a NutshellJo et al. uncover the role of a spliceosome component in removing retained introns in Arabidopsis in response to heat stress https://doi.org/10.1093/plcell/koac084
Background: Alternative splicing plays a key role in abiotic stress responses in plants, especially responses to heat stress. The spliceosome…
