Roots frequently encounter low oxygen (hypoxia) from soil compaction or water saturation and must adapt to this stress. We investigated how root tip cells sense hypoxia and adjust the meristem epigenome to activate genes that promote tolerance and growth under oxygen limitation. In Arabidopsis root tips, hypoxia tolerance was linked to increased trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4me3). We also found that group 7 demethylases (KDM7s) are directly inhibited by hypoxia, and that genetic inactivation of KDM7s, like hypoxia, induces expression of genes essential for meristem survival under oxygen deprivation. We propose that KDM7s function as root-specific oxygen sensors that prime and support hypoxia tolerance.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
