TL;DR: In this paper, the CRISPR/Cas9-induced gene mutations in Arabidopsis were mostly somatic mutations in the early generation, although some mutations could be stably inherited in later generations.

TL;DR: This work identified an HCC-specific methylation marker panel by comparing HCC tissue and normal blood leukocytes and showed that methylation profiles of HCC tumour DNA and matched plasma ctDNA are highly correlated.

TL;DR: This review provides a comprehensive summary of the mechanisms of salt stress responses in plants, including salt stress-triggered physiological responses, oxidative stress, salt stress sensing and signaling pathways, organellar stress, ion homeostasis, hormonal and gene expression regulation, metabolic changes, as well as salt tolerance mechanisms in halophytes.

TL;DR: Exogenous melatonin application confers abiotic stress resistance in bermudagrass through modulation of antioxidants and metabolic homeostasis, and extensive transcriptional reprogramming such as the reorientation of photorespiratory, carbohydrate, and nitrogen metabolism.

TL;DR: The utility of DNA methylation profiles for differentiating tumors and normal tissues for four common cancers found that they could differentiate cancerous tissue from normal tissue with >95% accuracy and can predict prognosis and survival.
