Phosphorus Solubilizing Bacteria Regulate Soil Phosphorus Activation Mechanisms and Impact on Available Nutrients: A Meta-Analysis

Ghent · GhentThe number of large molecular plant datasets seems to be growing exponentially. With this growth comes an urgent need for researchers to understand how these datasets should be analyzed and integrated to get accurate understandings of what they represent. This fine article by Leong et al. is a good place to start. Trying to build a model of gene regulatory networks is challenging when the data… SourceSee the Story
Review: Harnessing the Power of Gene Regulatory Networks for Crop Improvement

RegulationTranscriptional regulation is fundamental for coordinating cellular activities in response to developmental programs and environmental cues. Certain transcription factors (TFs) control the expression of hundreds of genes and are thus considered especially important — these are referred to as master regulators. However, predicting the regulatory activity of a TF remains challenging. SourceRead Article
