Brassinosteroid-regulated transcription factors confer epigenetic changes that repress plant immunity

Abstract When organisms encounter pathogens, they rapidly activate complex defense programs to ensure survival. While these immune responses are vital, they often also incur trade-offs, such as reduced growth and development and must therefore be tightly controlled 1,2 . In this...

Increasing usable reads in RNA-seq protocols

Bulk and single-cell RNA-seq are powerful tools for transcriptomic analysis, providing insights into molecular and cellular phenotypes. Costs constrain the biological insights obtainable within a given budget, and as sequencing prices decline, efficient library protocols have bec...
