Organ- and context-dependent plant transcriptome responses to spaceflight

This reasoning chain explains how organ-specific transcriptomic and proteomic remodeling, along with context-dependent genetic and epigenetic mechanisms, produce rapid and distinct responses to spaceflight and microgravity in plants. It integrates evidence from classic and meta-analyses showing that phase, organ, and hardware-driven preservation together shape observed transcriptomic outcomes.
