Starch synthesis in Brachypodium distachyon endosperm occurs in dynamic, connected amyloplast compartments

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary The morphology of starch granules is a major determinant of the functional and nutritional properties of starch and is highly variable among cereal species. Much of this morphological variation stems from differences in the spatial and temporal patterns of starch granule initiation in amyloplasts during grain development.

Pathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis exploits the lateral root regulators to induce pluripotency in maize shoots

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Biotrophic plant–pathogens secrete effector molecules to redirect and exploit endogenous signaling and developmental pathways in their favor. The biotrophic fungus Ustilago maydis causes galls on all aerial parts of maize. However, the responsible gall‐inducing effectors and corresponding plant signaling pathway(s) remain largely unknown.

Strain, procedures, and tools for reproducible genetic transformation and genome editing of the emerging plant model Spirodela polyrhiza

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Duckweeds (Lemnaceae) have excellent potential for fundamental and applied research due to ease of cultivation, small size, and continuous fast clonal growth. However, their usage as model organisms and platforms for biotechnological applications is often limited by the lack of universal genetic manipulation methods necessary for transgene ...

A PLETHORA3/7 transcription factor shapes cucumber shoot architecture

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary PLETHORA transcription factors (PLTs) are master regulators of plant development. Loss of shoot meristematic PLTs leads to reduced phyllotactic regularity and robustness in Arabidopsis and increased inflorescence branching in tomato. Whether these factors have similar functions in other species is not known.

Circular RNA Vv‐circCOR27 modulates thermotolerance through attenuating VvHSP90.2b‐VvHsfA7a interaction in grapevine

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are single‐stranded, covalently closed RNA molecules that arise from exon back‐splicing. The identification and function investigation of circRNAs have been comprehensively explored in plants, however, the regulatory mechanisms are largely unknown.
