Genetic Basis of UV Bullseye Size Variations in Turnip Rape (Brassica rapa subsp. oleifera)

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Floral ultraviolet (UV) patterns are visible to bee pollinators and can affect crop yields by impacting pollinator visitation. However, the mechanisms underlying the intraspecific variations of UV bullseye size remain largely unknown. We analyse the ecological consequences and genetic basis of floral UV bullseye size variation in an important ...

Synthetic Raphanobrassica Genome Reveals Functional and Evolutionary Insights Into Clubroot Resistance Genes on Chromosome R5

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Clubroot, a severe soil‐borne disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, poses a severe threat to global production of Brassicaceae oilseed crops and vegetables. To date, there has been a serious lack of clubroot‐resistant germplasms in Brassica napus (AACC), necessitating the urgent development of novel disease‐resistant germplasm.

Poplar miR1447 Is a Negative Regulator of Disease Resistance Through the SA‐Dependent Pathway

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although microRNA1447 (miR1447) regulates poplar responses to abiotic stress and pest infestation, how miR1447 regulates poplar immunity against pathogens and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Here, we revealed that miR1447 functioned as a negative regulator of poplar disease resistance against fungal and bacterial ...

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (

Effects of Elevated CO2 on Bean Pod Mottle Virus Infection in Both Incompatible and Compatible Interactions With Phaseolus vulgaris L

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant viruses cause significant crop losses, a situation that could worsen due to anthropogenic activities driving global climate change, one factor of which is the increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration. This study assessed the impact of elevated CO2 concentration (eCO2, 1000 vs. 400 ppm) on two genotypes of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris

Plant–Plant Competition Limits Arabidopsis Shoot Branching and Silique Production Independently of Soil Mineral Nutrients, Strigolactones and BRANCHED1

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In natural environments, plants compete with neighbouring plants for resources such as light, water and nutrients. To detect neighbours, plants have evolved mechanisms that are poorly understood at the molecular‐genetic level. This study examined the impact of competition on the growth and reproductive success of Arabidopsis thaliana grown in ...
