Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction of dwarfism to cereals has set a new paradigm in crop improvement programmes. To date, very little progress has been made in the development of high‐yielding dwarf/semi‐dwarf genotypes in oilseed Brassica. Previous attempts using induced mutagenesis employed in the induction of dwarfism in Brassica crops yielded limited success ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT After an initial evolution in a reducing environment, life got successively challenged by reactive oxygen species (ROS), especially during the great oxidation event (GOE) that followed the development of photosynthesis. Therefore, ROS are deeply intertwined into the physiological, morphological and transcriptional responses of most present‐day

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.

Sugars as Central Integrators of Plant Immunity and Stress Responses
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sugars are fundamental metabolites that sustain plant growth and development, but accumulating evidence demonstrates that they also function as regulatory hubs in plant defence. In this review, we synthesise current knowledge on how carbohydrate dynamics coordinate metabolism, signalling, and structural responses to shape plant resistance ...

Multiplexed Nanosensors for Real‐Time Monitoring of VOC‐Mediated Signalling Response in Plants
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT To enhance crop performance, intercropping strategies leverage volatile organic compound (VOC)‐driven interactions with companion plants that constitutively emit VOCs. Despite the agricultural importance, the mechanisms and kinetics of VOC‐mediated sensory transduction in receiver plants eavesdropping on neighbouring non‐kin emitters remain ...
