Precision RNAi in Tomato Using Synthetic Trans‐Acting Small Interfering RNAs Derived From Minimal Precursors

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT RNA interference (RNAi) is a highly conserved gene silencing mechanism regulating gene expression at transcriptional and post‐transcriptional levels in plants. Synthetic trans‐acting small interfering RNAs (syn‐tasiRNAs) have emerged as powerful tools for highly specific and efficient gene silencing.

Heterologous Production of Forskolin in Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) via Glandular Trichome Specific Engineering and Metabolic Flux Redirection

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants are promising bioreactor for the sustainable and scalable production of high‐value natural bioactive compounds, because they can synthesise phytochemicals from CO2, light, water and minerals through their innate photosynthetic carbon assimilation machinery.

Reducing the Sinapine Levels of Camelina sativa Seeds Through Targeted Genome Editing of REF1

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sinapine (O‐sinapoyl choline) is the major phenolic metabolite typically found in the oil‐rich seeds of Brassicaceae such as Camelina sativa and Brassica napus. It imparts a bitter taste to the seeds as a defence mechanism against herbivores, but it also renders them less palatable to livestock.

Join the Green and Sustainable Team: Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles Boost Broad‐Spectrum Viral Resistance in Solanaceae Plants

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant viruses are so harmful to crops. It is an urgent need to develop modern, environment‐friendly, and sustainable plant viral epidemic‐management strategies that are safe for both human health and the environment. The field of nanotechnology is gaining increased interest in plant science.

Tobamoviruses CP Proteins Hijack Light‐Induced Protein (NbLIP1) to Promote Viral Replication by Facilitating VRO Formation

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tobamoviruses establish viral replication organelles (VROs) on the host endoplasmic reticulum (ER) for their replication, a process demanding substantial different types of lipids. However, how viruses efficiently transfer these lipids from other compartments like chloroplasts remains incompletely understood.

A Bacterial Effector Hijacks NBR1 to Modulate Both Autophagy and Ubiquitination‐Mediated Degradation That Promotes Bacterial Infection

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autophagy and the ubiquitin/26S proteasome system (UPS) play critical roles in the immune defence of the host against pathogen invasion. As a countermeasure, pathogens deploy effector proteins to subvert or hijack autophagy and UPS processes.
