Gaining extensive resistance against clubroot disease through the disruption of a susceptibility gene

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 559-561, March 2026.
This Commentary examines research by Wu et al. showing that β‐1,3‐glucan synthase‐like 5 (GSL5) functions as a key gene for susceptibility to clubroot in Brassica family members by suppressing immunity regulated by jasmonic acid. Inaction of GSL5 through genome editing provides broad‐spectrum resistance to clubroot.

Soil Metabarcoding Helps Identify Recalcitrant Taxa From Chaparral Seed Banks

open access: yesJournal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Soil seed banks preserve plant diversity, but traditional germination methods often miss dormant or hard‐to‐germinate species. Our study tested metabarcoding as an alternative, finding that DNA‐based sequencing was more reliable than RNA and that water treatments influenced sequencing results.

Understanding the dynamic nature of plant lipid anabolic and catabolic metabolism is key to sustainable oilseed engineering

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 2196-2214, March 2026.
Summary Plant‐derived oils are essential sources of reduced carbon and various fatty acid (FA) structures for food, biofuels, and the oleochemical industry. Despite extensive efforts, engineering mainstream oilseed crops to produce high levels of industrially valuable unusual FAs (UFAs) remains challenging.

Risk Evaluation and Molecular Characterisation of AtNPR1 Transgenic Citrus Lines Tolerant to Citrus Greening Disease

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1223-1233, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Citrus greening disease, or Huanglongbing (HLB), has caused devastating losses to citrus production in Florida, with yields declining by over 90% since 2005. Despite extensive efforts, no sustainable solution has been widely effective. Here, transgenic ‘Hamlin’ sweet orange lines engineered to constitutively express the Arabidopsis NPR1 ...

MicroRNA‐Induced Gene Silencing (MIGS): A Tool for Multi‐Gene Silencing and Targeting Viruses in Plants

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 973-987, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Since its discovery, RNA interference (RNAi, also known as gene silencing) has been a key tool to downregulate gene expression in plants for a range of applications, including protection against viruses. Many of these applications require the silencing of multiple genes concomitantly.
