Expansion and diversification of the Populus R2R3-MYB family of transcription factors.
TL;DR: An expandable compendium of microarray-based expression data (PopGenExpress) and associated Web-based tools were developed to better enable within- and between-species comparisons of Populus R2R3-MYB gene expression.

Early procedural pain is associated with regionally-specific alterations in thalamic development in preterm neonates
Emma G. Duerden,Ruth E. Grunau,Ting Guo,Justin Foong,Alexander Pearson,Stephanie H. Au-Young,Raphaël Lavoie,M. Mallar Chakravarty,M. Mallar Chakravarty,Vann Chau,Anne Synnes,Steven P. Miller +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that early pain is associated with thalamic volume loss in the territory of the somatosensory thalamus and is accompanied by disruptionsThalamic metabolic growth and thalamocortical pathway maturation, particularly in extremely preterm neonates.

TL;DR: In preterm neonates, greater energy and enteral feeding during the first 2 weeks of life predicted more robust brain growth and accelerated WM maturation, suggesting the long-lasting effect of early nutrition on neurodevelopment may be mediated by enhanced brain growth.
Elucidating the Germination Transcriptional Program Using Small Molecules
George W. Bassel,Pauline Fung,Tsz-fung Freeman Chow,Justin Foong,Nicholas J. Provart,Sean R. Cutler +5 more
TL;DR: Three mechanistically distinct small molecules that inhibit Arabidopsis seed germination were identified using a small-molecule screen and used to probe the germination transcriptome and identified numerous germination regulators as germination responsive.

TL;DR: Monogenic IBD is rare but should be considered in analysis of all patients with pediatric onset of IBD, and 1% of the patients had variants that could be potentially corrected with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
