Removal of promoter CpG methylation by epigenome editing reverses HBG silencing
Abstract
β-hemoglobinopathies caused by mutations in adult-expressed HBB can be treated by re-activating the adjacent paralogous genes HBG1 and HBG2 (HBG), which are normally silenced perinatally. Although HBG expression is induced by global dem...

Fire and summer temperatures interact to shape seed dormancy thresholds
Abstract
Background and Aims
In Mediterranean ecosystems, the heat shock of wildfire disrupts physical seed dormancy in many plant species. This triggers germination in the post-fire environment where seedling establishment is optimal due to d...

Post‐fire changes in plant growth form composition and diversity in Andean páramo grassland
Abstract
Questions
Fire suppression policies have been widely adopted in the páramo grasslands of the northern Andes to protect their biodiversity and ecosystem services. Páramos have been regularly burned for many years, and it is not clear how ...

Pre-disturbance plant condition drives intraspecific resprouting variability in Mediterranean shrubs.
Abstract
Many Mediterranean plants persist after disturbances by resprouting from dormant buds, and understanding factors driving variability in resprouting is crucial for predicting regeneration under global change. We hypothesized resprouting ...

Espeletia giant rosette plants are reliable biological indicators of time since fire in Andean grasslands
Abstract
Páramo grasslands in the tropical Andes are fire-prone ecosystems and an understanding of their fire ecology is fundamental to biodiversity conservation and ecosystem management. Fire registers are normally impractical in these remote, c...
