Chemical Priming with Brassinosteroids to Mitigate Responses of Avocado (Persea americana) Trees to Flooding Stress

Horticulturae, 2022
Priming involves the exposure of plants to a mild stress to increase tolerance to a more intense stress in the future. Chemical priming with brassinosteroids reduces the negative effects of flooding on the physiology and survival of some plant species ...

Occurrence and integrated control of major rice diseases in China

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Rice is constantly under threat from a variety of pathogens. This review highlights the major diseases affecting rice in China, including three fungal diseases, two bacterial diseases, two viral diseases, and one nematode. The review also proposes future directions for an integrated approach to control these significant rice diseases.

5-Aminolevulinic Acid and 24-Epibrassinolide Improve the Drought Stress Resilience and Productivity of Banana Plants

Plants, 2022
Plant growth, development, and productivity are adversely affected under drought conditions. Previous findings indicated that 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and 24-epibrassinolide (EBL) play an important role in the plant response to adverse environmental ...

Recent advances in improving yield and immunity through transcription factor engineering

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Recent advances have demonstrated that modulating transcription factors can help balance growth and immunity, which is critical to achieving high yield and disease resistance in crops. This review provides a perspective on how specific transcription factors can be engineered to enhance growth and immunity simultaneously. ABSTRACT Transcription factors (

Key Proteins and Metabolic Pathways Involved in 24-Epibrasionlide Improving Drought Tolerance of Rhododendron delavayi Franch

Horticulturae, 2021
Rhododendron delavayi Franch. is a famous ornamental plant. However, seasonal drought caused by a monsoon climate seriously limits its growth and flowering performance in urban gardens. Our previous study has found that brassinosteroids (BRs) can improve

BAF60/SWP73 subunits define subclasses of SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complexes in Arabidopsis

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Evolutionarily conserved switch‐defective/sucrose nonfermentable (SWI/SNF) ATP‐dependent chromatin remodelling complexes (CRCs) alter nucleosome positioning and chromatin states, affecting gene expression to regulate important processes such as proper development and hormonal signalling pathways.

OsBSK3 Positively Regulates Grain Length and Weight by Inhibiting the Phosphatase Activity of OsPPKL1

Plants, 2022
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a crucial class of plant hormones that regulate many important agronomic traits in rice (Oryza sativa L.); thus, the BR signaling pathway is a very important tool for breeders to improve the grain yield and quantity of rice ...
