An Ustilaginoidea virens Nuclear Effector SCRE7 Inhibits Rice Immunity via Suppressing OsLBD11/12‐Promoted Transcription of OsCPS2

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Phytopathogenic fungi secrete a great number of effector proteins into various organelles of host plants and suppress plant immunity through different mechanisms. In this study, we identify SCRE7 as a unique nuclear effector that is essential for U. virens infection.

Poplar miR1447 Is a Negative Regulator of Disease Resistance Through the SA‐Dependent Pathway

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although microRNA1447 (miR1447) regulates poplar responses to abiotic stress and pest infestation, how miR1447 regulates poplar immunity against pathogens and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Here, we revealed that miR1447 functioned as a negative regulator of poplar disease resistance against fungal and bacterial ...

Protoplast‐Based Functional Genomics and Genome Editing: Progress, Challenges and Applications

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Protoplast‐based systems provide a powerful and versatile platform for exploring how plants sense and respond to their environment. By enabling the direct delivery of proteins, DNA, and RNA into plant cells after cell wall removal, this approach facilitates precise molecular dissection of signaling, stress adaptation, and gene regulation ...

Pinus‐derived membrane vesicles disrupt pathogenic metabolism in fungi

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Needle‐derived vesicles from pine trees impair fungal metabolism and growth, offering a sustainable strategy to control pine pitch canker disease. Abstract Much of what we know about the biological impacts of vesicles (MVs) is derived from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Dry Bean Cocoa Production in Papua New Guinea: Do IPDM Inputs Pay Off?

Asia &the Pacific Policy Studies, Volume 13, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Cocoa is Papua New Guineaʼs (PNG) third‐largest agricultural export, supporting about two million smallholder farmers. Despite integrated pest and disease management (IPDM) systems to improve yields, adoption remains low. We surveyed two cocoa‐growing households—one near Balima (Madang Province) and the other near Manetai (Bougainville)—and ...

Antagonistic effect of rhizospheric bacteria against white rot (Sclerotium cepivorum) of garlic (Allium sativum L.) under in vitro and in vivo conditions

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Garlic (Allium sativum), a vegetable crop used for food, medicine, and condiments, is affected by white rot (Sclerotium cepivorum). Garlic yield reduction is influenced by several factors, with biotic stresses, particularly fungal pathogens, being among the most significant.
