In this study, variation and genetic basis of ionome among Tartary buckwheat population are investigated, illuminating their significance in the domestication and diversification of Tartary buckwheat. And three genes (FtACA13 for Na content, FtYPQ1 for Zn content, FtNHX2 for As content) are identified with the dominant haplotypes and functional ...

The target of rapamycin (TOR) complex is a central plant growth regulator. Here, the protein–protein interactions underlying its various functions are mapped by pupylation‐based proximity‐labeling in Arabidopsis, using TOR complex subunits LST8‐1 and RAPTOR1, alongside TOR inhibitor FK506‐binding protein, as baits.

Bean rust resistance in the Guatemalan climbing bean germplasm collection
Abstract Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the main source of protein, fiber, and iron for Guatemala's poorest households. Bean rust (caused by Uromyces appendiculatus (Pers) Unger) can reduce seed yield up to 100%. There is limited information about U. appendiculatus virulence diversity in Guatemala, especially in the mid‐altitude highlands.

Secondary Structure of Chloroplast mRNAs In Vivo and In Vitro
mRNA secondary structure can influence gene expression, e.g., by influencing translation initiation. The probing of in vivo mRNA secondary structures is therefore necessary to understand what determines the efficiency and regulation of gene expression ...

Direct Quantification of Protein–Protein Interactions in Living Bacterial Cells
Quantitative measurement of protein–protein interactions in living cells is vital for biotechnology applications. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) signals in bacterial cells are often weak, leading to false‐positive. Quantitative FRET measurements are implemented to overcome the weak FRET signal.

An Arabidopsis flavonoid transporter is required for anther dehiscence and pollen development [PDF]
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 ...

Efficient uptake of nutrients in both animal and plant cells requires tissue-spanning diffusion barriers separating inner tissues from the outer lumen/soil. However, we poorly understand how such contiguous three-dimensional superstructures are formed in

DNA–Protein Binding is Dominated by Short Anchoring Elements
This study delineate the binding mechanism of transcription factors (TFs) in the genome with the knowledge obtained at thermodynamic equilibrium conditions. Through KaScape experiments, combined with the AEEscape algorithm development, they identified the minimal dominant interacting elements, termed as Anchoring Elements (AEs).

A novel Arabidopsis pathosystem reveals cooperation of multiple hormonal response-pathways in host resistance against the global crop destroyer Macrophomina phaseolina. [PDF]
Dubbed as a "global destroyer of crops", the soil-borne fungus Macrophomina phaseolina (Mp) infects more than 500 plant species including many economically important cash crops. Host defenses against infection by this pathogen are poorly understood.

Interaction specificity of Arabidopsis 14-3-3 proteins with phototropin receptor kinases [PDF]
Phototropin receptor kinases play an important roles in optimising plant growth in response to blue light. Much is known regarding their photochemical reactivity, yet little progress has been made to identify downstream signalling components.
