Receptor‐like kinases BIR1 and BIR3 modulate antiviral resistance by different mechanisms
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary BRASSINOSTEROID INSENSITIVE1‐ASSOCIATED RECEPTOR KINASE 1 (BAK1)‐INTERACTING RECEPTOR‐LIKE KINASE (BIR) proteins are negative regulators of cell death and defense against microbes in Arabidopsis thaliana. Here, we demonstrate that the members of the BIR family function as negative regulators of antiviral resistance in Arabidopsis.

HSFA2D–LAZY6–LAZY1 module regulates shoot gravitropism and tiller angle in rice
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Tiller angle is a critical architectural trait in rice (Oryza sativa), affecting planting density, light interception, and grain yield. While HEAT STRESS TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR 2D (HSFA2D) has been shown to regulate tiller angle via LAZY1 (LA1)‐mediated auxin distribution, the precise mechanisms governing this pathway remain elusive.

Harnessing promoter elements to enhance gene editing in plants: perspectives and advances
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 5, Page 1375-1395, May 2025.Summary Genome‐edited plants, endowed with climate‐smart traits, have been promoted as tools for strengthening resilience against climate change. Successful plant gene editing (GE) requires precise regulation of the GE machinery, a process controlled by the promoters, which drives its transcription through interactions with transcription factors (TFs ...

Natural variation in ZmNRT2.5 modulates husk leaf width and promotes seed protein content in maize
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 4, Page 1039-1052, April 2025.Summary The husk leaf of maize (Zea mays) encases the ear as a modified leaf and plays pivotal roles in protecting the ear from pathogen infection, translocating nutrition for grains and warranting grain yield. However, the natural genetic basis for variation in husk leaf width remains largely unexplored.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 4, Page 1053-1066, April 2025.Summary Exploring the new elements to re‐design the expression cassette is crucial in synthetic biology. Viruses are one of the most important sources for exploring gene expression elements. In this study, we found that the DNA sequence of the SBG51 deltasatellite from the Sweet potato leaf curl virus (SPLCV) greatly enhanced the gene expression when ...
