The F‐box protein RCN127 enhances rice tillering and grain yield by mediating the degradation of OsTB1 and OsTCP19

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Tillering ability is a crucial agronomic trait that determines rice yield potential. OsTB1 (the rice ortholog of TEOSINTE BRANCHED 1) and OsTCP19 of the TCP protein family are two key repressors of rice tillering. Until now, their post‐translational regulatory mechanisms have remained elusive.

OsDUF2488 acts synergistically with OsPrx1.1, regulates ROS metabolism and promotes dehydration tolerance in rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Stress‐mediated regulation of energy metabolism and its relation to plant adaptation remain largely unknown. Mitochondrial redox potential is greatly influenced by stress‐induced reactive oxygen species (ROS); therefore, we mapped the dehydration‐induced alterations in the mitochondrial proteome of a resilient rice cultivar, Rasi, generating a ...

The SCARECROW‐LIKE transcription factor from Populus davidiana × P. bolleana simultaneously improved drought tolerance and plant growth through acetylation‐dependent mechanisms

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary The GAI‐RGA‐and‐SCR (GRAS) family of plant‐specific transcription factors (TFs) is essential for development and stress tolerance, but their role in drought resistance and growth remains unclear. Here, we characterized the SCARECROW‐LIKE (SCL) TF PdbSCL1 from Populus davidiana × P.

ScWRKY2: a key regulator for smut resistance in sugarcane

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Sugarcane smut is a worldwide fungal disease caused by Sporisorium scitamineum, which seriously jeopardizes the healthy and sustainable development of the sugarcane industry. WRKY transcription factors are actively involved in plant responses to pathogen infection; however, the mechanisms by which WRKY mediates resistance to sugarcane smut ...

Field selection of elite events of East African highland bananas expressing elevated levels of pro‐vitamin A

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Biofortification of staple crops is a sustainable strategy to deliver essential micronutrients to impoverished populations in developing countries. Banana is a highly valued crop consumed by over 75% of Ugandans. However, the starchy green cooking bananas have very low levels of pro‐vitamin A (PVA) and heavy dietary reliance on them has been ...

A novel function for the transcription factor sensitive to proton rhizotoxicity1 in promoting anthocyanin accumulation in strawberry

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Sensitive to proton rhizotoxicity1 (STOP1), a C2H2‐type zinc finger transcription factor, has been widely studied as a core transcription factor in adapting plants to diverse environmental stresses. However, whether STOP1 regulates anthocyanin accumulation in plants is still unknown.

A natural variation in the promoter of TaGDSL‐7D contributes to grain weight and yield in wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Grain weight (GW) is a critical agronomic trait that greatly impacts wheat yield, yet the underlying genetic factors remain largely unknown. Here, we identify and characterize a candidate gene TaGDSL‐7D controlling GW in wheat through map‐based cloning, which encodes an ER‐located GDSL‐family protein.

Identification of a Susceptibility Gene for Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae in Vietnamese Elite Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Cultivar Bacthom 7

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is the causal agent of bacterial leaf blight (BLB) disease in rice, exerting a detrimental impact on the yield of various rice cultivars in Vietnam, notably the Bacthom 7 (BT7) variety. Xoo possesses transcription activator‐like effectors (TALEs) which modulate the expression of host genes by specifically ...
