Stomata in the epidermal tissues of leaves are valves through which passes CO 2 , and as
such they influence the global carbon cycle 1 . The two-dimensional pattern and density of …

Genome editing using the CRISPR/Cas9 system can be used to modify plant genomes,
however, improvements in specificity and applicability are still needed in order for the editing …

Parthenocarpy in horticultural crop plants is an important trait with agricultural value for
various industrial purposes as well as direct eating quality. Here, we demonstrate a breeding …

Dioecy, the presence of male and female individuals, has evolved independently in multiple
flowering plant lineages 1 , 2 – 3 . Although theoretical models for the evolution of dioecy, …

Marchantia polymorpha is one of the model species of basal land plants. Although CRISPR/Cas9-based
genome editing has already been demonstrated for this plant, the efficiency …

Mushroom-forming basidiomycetes produce a wide range of metabolites and have great
value not only as food but also as an important global natural resource. Here, we demonstrate …

The stoma is a micro valve found on aerial plant organs that promotes gas exchange between
the atmosphere and the plant body. Each stoma is formed by a strict cell lineage during …
