Advanced Science, EarlyView.Researchers develop advanced tools to study grapevine traits like berry quality and stress resilience. A 200K SNP array and high‐throughput phenotyping enable the identification of loci linked to berry shape, sugar content, acidity, and cold tolerance. Functional validation of genes such as NAC08 reveals roles in cold tolerance.

Arabidopsis LIM proteins PLIM2a and PLIM2b regulate actin configuration during pollen tube growth
Biologia Plantarum, 2013 The pollen tube grows rapidly, exclusively at its tip, to deliver its sperm for fertilization. The polarized tip growth of pollen tubes is dependent on the highly dynamic actin cytoskeleton. Plant LIM proteins (named after initials of containing proteins

Membrane proteins in the outer mebrane of plastids and mitochondria [PDF]
, 2006 Channels of the plastid and mitochondrial outer membranes facilitate the turnover of molecules and ions via these membranes. Although channels have been studied many questions pertaining to the whole diversity of plastid and mitochondrial channels in ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.CMT2 mediates the maintenance of DNA methylation on the promoters of SAGs, thereby inhibiting EIN3A untimely activating SAGs’ expression. Aging‐impelled striking upregulation of EIN3A strongly suppresses the expression of CMT2 to reduce the methylation level, which releases the activation of EIN3A on SAGs, thus initiating and accelerating the ...

Structural insights into mechanism and specificity of the plant protein O-fucosyltransferase SPINDLY
Nature Communications, 2022 Arabidopsis SPINDLY (SPY) is a nucleocytoplasmic protein O-fucosyltransferase. Here, the authors present a crystal structure of Arabidopsis SPY/GDP complex, reveal SPY’s substrate recognition and enzyme mechanism, and provide insights into the glycan ...

Exploring plant tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses [PDF]
, 2007 Plants are exposed to many stress factors, such as drought, high salinity or pathogens, which reduce the yield of the cultivated plants or affect the quality of the harvested products. Arabidopsis thaliana was used as a model plant to study the responses

A functional study of AUXILIN-LIKE1 and 2, two putative clathrin uncoating factors in Arabidopsis [PDF]
, 2018 Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is a cellular trafficking process in which cargoes and lipids are internalized from the plasma membrane into vesicles coated with clathrin and adaptor proteins. CME is essential for many developmental and physiological

Advanced Science, EarlyView.FfRlpA2, a conserved Fusarium effector, functions as a protease inhibitor by hijacking the E3 ubiquitin ligase IbCHYR1 to degrade the resistance factor IbZnFR, thereby promoting Fusarium pathogenicity. Conversely, the high dosage Pro::IbZnFRHap2 allele was associated with resistance to root rot disease.

F1000Research, 2018 Background: Rhomboid serine proteases are present across many species and are often encoded in each species by more than one predicted gene. Based on protein sequence comparisons, rhomboids can be differentiated into groups - secretases, presenilin-like ...

The pea branching RMS2 gene encodes the PsAFB4/5 auxin receptor and is involved in an auxin-strigolactone regulation loop [PDF]
, 2017 Strigolactones (SLs) are well known for their role in repressing shoot branching. In pea, increased transcript levels of SL biosynthesis genes are observed in stems of highly branched SL deficient (ramosus1 (rms1) and rms5) and SL response (rms3 and rms4)
