Plant Molecular Biology Research

This cluster of papers focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying plant development, with a particular emphasis on the roles of microRNAs, auxin, gene expression regulation, epigenetic mechanisms, transcription factors, genome-wide analyses, cytokinin signaling, and the control of flowering time.

122,314 works

Papers listed on taxonomy pages are the top few works per node from the OpenAlex snapshot. That list is not exhaustive and is not an endorsement. The topic map and the journal registry remain separate: there is still no authoritative topic-to-venue or topic-to-organization edge. Search is a lexical lookup, not a claim that a venue publishes a topic.
