Land plant-specific H3K27 methyltransferases ATXR5 and ATXR6 control plant development and stress responses
Our findings suggest that land plants evolved ATXR5/6 not only to maintain heterochromatin, but also to regulate development and environmental responses, providing new insights into the functional significance of ATXR5/6 in land plants.
