A SlMYB78‐regulated bifunctional gene cluster for phenolamide and salicylic acid biosynthesis during tomato domestication, reducing disease resistance

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The tomato transcription factor SlMYB78 controls a key metabolic gene cluster including ENHANCED PSEUDOMONAS SUSCEPTIBILTY 1, encoding a key enzyme that produces disease‐fighting compounds (phenolamides) and immune signals (salicylic acid). During domestication, tomatoes lost a superior variant (SlEPS1HapB), weakening disease resistance; restoring this

Global identification of key genes for pollen germination in rice through high‐throughput screening and gene editing

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
A systematic examination of 107 T‐DNA insertional lines targeting 105 genes preferentially expressed in late pollen development identified 42 lines exhibiting significant deviations from expected Mendelian segregation ratios, suggesting a potential involvement in pollen viability and germination.

High‐quality genome of allotetraploid Avena barbata provides insights into the origin and evolution of B subgenome in Avena

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
A high‐quality genome sequence of the tetraploid wild oat Avena barbata provides crucial genetic information for the Avena B‐genome, allowing clarification of the evolutionary trajectories of the four subgenomes within Avena and identification of numerous key genes related to environmental adaptability, thus offering valuable resources for oat breeding

The silicon efflux transporter BEC1 is essential for bloom formation and stress tolerance in cucumber

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Mutation of the silicon efflux transporter gene BEC1 in cucumber impaired silicon uptake, resulting in fruits lacking bloom, the white powdery layer on fruits, and compromising stress resistance. Grafting bec1 scions onto bloom‐competent rootstocks restored the silicon accumulation and stress resistance, while maintaining the bloomless phenotype ...

Late blight pathogen targets host Rab‐G3 GTPases with an atypical GTPase‐activating protein

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The Phytophthora infestans RXLR effector Pi17063 functions as an atypical GTPase‐activating protein of host positive immune regulators, specifically the small GTPase NbRab‐G3. Pi17063 promotes the relocalization of NbRab‐G3 proteins to the cytoplasm, where they are inactive, disrupting the balance of the NbRab‐G3 switch and thus leading to enhanced ...

Cryo‐SEM and large volume FIB‐SEM of Arabidopsis cotyledons: Degradation of lipid bodies, biogenesis of glyoxysomes and reorganisation of organelles during germination

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Until recently, the lack of three‐dimensional visualisation of whole cells at the electron microscopic (EM) level has led to a significant gap in our understanding of the interaction of cellular organelles and their interconnection. This is particularly true with regard to the role of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).
