Abstract excerpt
The linear shape of cereal leaves creates distinct longitudinal zones that coordinate tissue maturation and resource allocation. Under abiotic stress such as heat, these longitudinal zones may differentially activate protective pathways, revealing hidden heterogeneity in stress response that remains poorly understood. Barley (Hordeum vulgare), a cold-adapted crop particularly sensitive to elevated temperatures,...
