Blomberg J, Tasselius V, Vergara A, Karamat F, Imran Q, Strand A, et al.
Sci Rep . 2024 Mar; 14(1):6771. PMID: 38514763
Rapid metabolic responses to pathogens are essential for plant survival and depend on numerous transcription factors. Mediator is the major transcriptional co-regulator for integration and transmission of signals from transcriptional...

Bai B, Schiffthaler B, van der Horst S, Willems L, Vergara A, Karlstrom J, et al.
J Exp Bot . 2022 Oct; 74(7):2416-2432. PMID: 36208446
Seed maturation is the developmental process that prepares the embryo for the desiccated waiting period before germination. It is associated with a series of physiological changes leading to the establishment...

Hernandez-Verdeja T, Vuorijoki L, Jin X, Vergara A, Dubreuil C, Strand A
New Phytol . 2022 Mar; 235(1):188-203. PMID: 35322876
One of the most dramatic challenges in the life of a plant occurs when the seedling emerges from the soil and exposure to light triggers expression of genes required for...

Vergara A, Haas J, Aro T, Stachula P, Street N, Hurry V
Plant Cell Environ . 2021 Dec; 45(2):427-445. PMID: 34873720
Climate change in the conifer-dominated boreal forest is expected to lead to warmer but more dynamic winter air temperatures, reducing the depth and duration of snow cover and lowering winter...

Haas J, Vergara A, Serrano A, Mishra S, Hurry V, Street N
Tree Physiol . 2021 Jan; 41(7):1230-1246. PMID: 33416078
Drought stress impacts seedling establishment, survival and whole-plant productivity. Molecular responses to drought stress have been most extensively studied in herbaceous species, mostly considering only aboveground tissues. Coniferous tree species...

Pinto-Irish K, de la Pena T, Ostria-Gallardo E, Ibanez C, Briones V, Vergara A, et al.
BMC Plant Biol . 2020 Jul; 20(1):343. PMID: 32693791
Background: Early seed germination and a functional root system development during establishment are crucial attributes contributing to nutrient competence under marginal nutrient soil conditions. Chenopodium quinoa Willd (Chenopodiaceae) is a...
