Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a group of plant steroid hormones that play important roles in regulating plant development. In addition, BRs show considerable functional redundancy with other plant hormones such as gibberellins (GAs). BRASSINAZOLE RESISTANT1

Improved Longan Genome Assembly Reveals Insights Into Flowering Mechanisms
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Longan is an exotic tropical fruit crop and exhibits off‐season flowering induced by potassium chlorate (KClO3), though the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. We assembled a high‐quality, 441.5 Mb genome of variety ‘Shixia’, with a contig N50 at 28.1 Mb, 29, 325 protein‐coding genes, 26 telomeres and 15 centromeres.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cold stress adversely affects plant growth and development, significantly limiting fruit yield and quality in citrus. Ichang papeda (Citrus ichangensis), a cold‐tolerant citrus species, serves as a valuable genetic resource for studying cold adaptation, yet the key genes and their modes of action underlying the cold stress response remain ...

Natural Variation of TaSG‐D1‐TaWRKY53 Module Regulates Heading Date in Wheat
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Heading date is a critical determinant of regional adaptation and yield potential. Here, we identify an E286K substitution in TaSG‐D1, encoding an STKc_GSK3 kinase, which delays heading date in wheat. Mechanistically, this substitution strengthens the physical interaction between TaSG‐D1 and TaWRKY53 and enhances the phosphorylation of ...
