ABSTRACT Colletotrichum spp., hemibiotrophic fungal pathogens, threaten global strawberry production. Jasmonate (JA) regulates plant‐Colletotrichum interactions, but its mechanisms remain unclear. Here we demonstrate that both exogenous methyl jasmonate (MeJA) treatment and elevated endogenous MeJA levels increase strawberry susceptibility to ...

TaPHL7 Transcription Factor Regulates Utilisation of Nitrogen and Phosphorus in Wheat
ABSTRACT Macronutrients nitrogen and phosphorus are essential for plant growth and development, thus being crucial for the productivity of crops. However, the molecular mechanism regulating the utilisation of nitrogen and phosphorus remains elusive. Here, we show that the wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) transcription factor PHOSPHATE STARVATION RESPONSE ...

ABSTRACT Brassica napus is the second most important oil crop worldwide. Number of primary branches (Branch number, BN) and silique number on the main inflorescence (SMI) are key yield‐related quantitative traits. Here, we cloned a major QTL, qDB.A09, which simultaneously influences BN and SMI.

Plastid Engineering for Photosynthesis‐Driven Synthesis of Hyaluronic Acid in Tobacco
ABSTRACT Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a glycosaminoglycan composed of alternating units of N‐acetylglucosamine and glucuronic acid. High moisture retention, viscoelasticity and biocompatibility are unique features that make HA polymers attractive compounds for medical applications and aesthetic purposes.

Genetic Mapping and Functional Characterisation of GhCUP Regulating Leaf Curling in Cotton
ABSTRACT Leaf size and shape are crucial traits affecting photosynthesis. Moderate leaf curling is believed to be beneficial to photosynthesis because upright leaves are ideal for building a canopy structure with reduced shaded areas to improve light penetration and ventilation.
