Aphid effector Mp10 balances immune suppression and defence activation through EDS1‐dependent modulation of plant DAMP responses

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Damage‐associated molecular pattern (DAMP)‐triggered immunity (DTI) serves as a crucial first line of defence against aphid attack, yet how aphids manage this response remains unclear. By investigating the colonisation of Arabidopsis thaliana by the highly polyphagous peach–potato aphid (Myzus persicae), we identified cell wall‐derived DAMPs ...

PagMIR166c targets PagECH2 to regulate cambial differentiation into secondary xylem, cell expansion, and lignin deposition via different auxin signaling pathways in poplar stems

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Secondary xylem, a key trait of trees, is the main source of tree biomass. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important regulatory roles in the secondary xylem formation; however, the underlying regulatory mechanisms are far from being completely elucidated.

Molecular changes in agroinfiltrated leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana expressing suppressor of silencing P19 and coronavirus‐like particles

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary The production of coronavirus disease 2019 vaccines can be achieved by transient expression of the spike (S) protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in agroinfiltrated leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana. Relying on bacterial vector Agrobacterium tumefaciens, this process is favoured by co‐expression of viral silencing suppressor

The clarification of two hydroxylation steps in the conversion of cholesterol to OSW‐1 in Ornithogalum saundersiae

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary OSW‐1 is a cholestane saponin uniquely produced in Ornithogalum saundersiae and exhibits a potential antitumor activity. The enzymes responsible for OSW‐1 biosynthesis in O. saundersiae, however, remain unclear. Herein, cholesterol was confirmed to be the precursor of OSW‐1 using stable‐isotope labeling method.

Localising enzymes to biomolecular condensates increases their accumulation and benefits engineered metabolic pathway performance in Nicotiana benthamiana

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary The establishment of Nicotiana benthamiana as a robust biofactory is complicated by issues such as product toxicity and proteolytic degradation of target proteins/introduced enzymes. Here we investigate whether biomolecular condensates can be used to address these problems. We engineered biomolecular condensates in N.

Rhizobium rhizogenes A4‐derived strains mediate hyper‐efficient transient gene expression in Nicotiana benthamiana and other solanaceous plants

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Agroinfiltration, a method utilizing agrobacteria to transfer DNA into plant cells, is widely used for transient gene expression in plants. Besides the commonly used Agrobacterium strains, Rhizobium rhizogenes can also introduce foreign DNA into host plants for gene expression. While many R. rhizogenes strains have been known for inducing hairy
