γ-H2A.X is a critical signal for DNA double strand break responses. In this study, an Arabidopsis protein that interacts with γ-H2A.X and the recombinase RAD51 is shown to contribute to plant chromatin stability and integrity.

EAT1 promotes tapetal cell death by regulating aspartic proteases during male reproductive development in rice
Programmed cell death is essential for the development of plants. Here Niu et al.characterize a rice mutant with deletions in the transcription factor, ETERNAL TAPETUM 1, which is shown to positively regulate programmed cell death by modulating expression of two aspartic proteases.
