Design, Synthesis, and Action Mechanism of 1,3-Benzodioxole Derivatives as Potent Auxin Receptor Agonists and Root Growth Promoters [PDF]
Deeper and longer roots allow crops to survive and flourish, but our understanding of the plant growth regulators promoting root system establishment is limited. Here, we report that, a novel auxin receptor agonist, named K-10, had a remarkable promotive

Emergence of an Auxin Sensing Domain in Plant-Associated Bacteria [PDF]
Bacteria have evolved a sophisticated array of signal transduction systems that allow them to adapt their physiology and metabolism to changing environmental conditions. Typically, these systems recognize signals through dedicated ligand binding domains (

The optimization of crop response to climatic stress through modulation of plant stress response mechanisms. Opportunities for biostimulants and plant hormones to meet climate challenges. [PDF]
Summary This review discusses the use of agronomic management practices to enhance crop stress resilience to climate stress through the modulation of natural plant growth regulatory pathways. The use of biostimulants or plant hormones to improve crop resilience is subject to strict regulatory oversight if changes in the regulation of plant growth are ...

In vitro dynamic and quantitative monitoring of strigolactone-signaling complex formation by time-resolved FRET. [PDF]
We developed a new in vitro method using time‐resolved FRET to evaluate the dynamic activation of the strigolactone (SL) receptors. This system was used to gain deeper insights into the molecular mechanism of SL‐signaling complex formation and to detect naturally occurring SLs.

A Reactive Antagonist Strategy: Cysteine-Directed Covalent Molecular Glue in Plant Hormone Receptor Regulation. [PDF]
The plant hormone jasmonate is perceived by COI1‐JAZ co‐receptors comprising a single F‐box protein COI1 and multiple JAZ repressors with overlapping functions, complicating genetic analysis. We present a reactive antagonist (RA) strategy that selectively promotes COI1 binding to a cysteine‐engineered JAZ variant while blocking wild‐type JAZs, enabling

Parasitic Plant-Host Interactions: Molecular Mechanisms and Agricultural Resistance Strategies. [PDF]
Parasitic plants devastate global agriculture through sophisticated molecular interactions with host crops. This review synthesizes current understanding of parasitic plant‐host interactions, from strigolactone‐mediated germination and haustorium formation to host defense mechanisms.

Ectopic sodium channel expression decreases excitability of Drosophila Kenyon cells. [PDF]
Abstract figure legend: We tested the effects of expressing the bacterial voltage‐gated sodium channel NaChBac in the Kenyon cells of the Drosophila memory centre, the mushroom body. NaChBac expression decreases expression of endogenous voltage‐gated sodium channels (left), reduces action potential firing (upper) and prevents learning (lower). However,

Advances and opportunities for computational interrogation of plant proteins. [PDF]
SUMMARY Plants exhibit remarkable biochemical and physiological diversity, and are capable of adapting to a wide range of environmental conditions and stresses. This complexity makes them essential systems for understanding how life responds to a changing climate.
