lincRNA6679 promotes FnPR1B expression via phosphorylation‐activated FnWRKY14 to enhance strawberry resistance to Botrytis cinerea

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 1898-1918, June 2026.
In strawberry, Botrytis cinerea induces the expression of the long, intergenic non‐coding RNA lincRNA667,which upregulates the transcription factor gene FnWRKY14. FnWRKY14 then binds to the promoter of the pathogenesis‐related gene FnPR1B, enhancing strawberry resistance to B. cinerea.

The Transcription Factors HbWRKY29 and HbPTI5 cooperatively enhance rubber tree resistance to powdery mildew

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Upon Erysiphe quercicola infection, rubber HbWRKY29 is rapidly induced and physically interacts with HbPTI5 to trigger HR. HbWRKY29 binds the HbPTI5 promoter (W‐box), enhancing HbPTI5 expression, which activates HbTLP1 expression, leading to reinforced defence.
