Spaceflight induces gene expression changes in plants

This reasoning chain synthesizes evidence that spaceflight conditions cause measurable changes in gene expression profiles in both Arabidopsis thaliana and Ceratopteris richardii cells, suggesting conserved molecular responses to the spaceflight environment across diverse plant lineages.
