Pectin Metabolism Influences Phloem Architecture and Flowering Time in Arabidopsis Thaliana
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Cell wall remodeling mediated by changes in pectic homogalacturonan, including its methyl‐esterification status and degradation, shapes wall architecture. This study finds that pectin metabolism dynamically modulates wall properties and triggers auxin responses, which influence phloem morphogenesis and function, mediating the long‐distance transport of

A novel role for the root cap in phosphate uptake and homeostasis
eLife, 2016 The root cap has a fundamental role in sensing environmental cues as well as regulating root growth via altered meristem activity. Despite this well-established role in the control of developmental processes in roots, the root cap’s function in nutrition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.TaPPR13, a PPR protein family gene in wheat is activated by TaBZR2 to enhance drought stress tolerance and photosynthetic capacity. It achieves this by interacting with TaAOR1 and TaSIG5 to improve antioxidant defense and regulate chloroplast gene expression. Abstract The wheat (Triticum aestivum) brassinazole‐resistant 2 (TaBZR2) gene is identified as

To respond or not to respond? Natural variation of root architectural responses to nutrient signals [PDF]
, 2017 The amino acid glutamate (Glu) acts as a fast excitatory neurotransmitter in mammals. Its importance in plant signalling was recognized with the discovery of channel proteins similar to mammalian Glu receptors, as well as distinct changes in root-system ...

An Arabidopsis flavonoid transporter is required for anther dehiscence and pollen development [PDF]
, 2010 FLOWER FLAVONOID TRANSPORTER (FFT) encodes a multidrug and toxin efflux family transporter in Arabidopsis thaliana. FFT (AtDTX35) is highly transcribed in floral tissues, the transcript being localized to epidermal guard cells, including those of the ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Phytophthora capsici effector PcRD18 targets tomato GSNOR to disrupt NO homeostasis, promoting S‐nitrosylation of immune proteins like RBOHD. This suppresses ROS bursts and promotes pathogen infection. Mutation of the PcRD18‐binding sites of GSNOR avoids pathogen manipulation and offers a strategy to enhance crop resistance. Abstract Nitric oxide (NO),

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Background Plant responses to deficiencies of the micronutrient boron are diverse and go beyond the well‐characterized function of boron in cell wall crosslinking. To explain these phenotypic discrepancies, hypotheses about interactions of boron with various phytohormones have been proposed, particularly auxin.

A Gene Expression Screen Identifies \u3cem\u3eEARLI1\u3c/em\u3e as a Novel Vernalization-Responsive Gene in \u3cem\u3eArabidopsis Thaliana\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
, 2000 Vernalization promotes early flowering in late ecotypes of Arabidopsis thaliana. The mechanisms of vernalization are poorly understood. A subtractive hybridization approach was used to isolate vernalization-responsive genes from a late-flowering ecotype of
