Our understanding of the genetic architecture of obesity is primarily based on studies of adults, with sparser data from childhood. Here, we conducted age-stratified genetic association studies against objectively measured (n = 62,276) or recalled childhood adiposity-related traits (neff = 599,924), identifying 624 com...

Bulblet formation is a critical type of direct vegetative regeneration in plants, where modified leaf bases undergo a developmental transition to generate new bulb structures. However, the cellular trajectories driving this scale-to-bulblet transition remain poorly understood. Here, we applied single-nucleus sequencing...
These findings establish ZmEMF1a as an epigenetic regulator that balances endosperm proliferation, cell fate specification, and nutrient accumulation through stage‐specific histone modifications, thereby offering promising targets for enhancing maize yield and nutritional quality.
