Neophytadiene, a Plant Specialized Metabolite, Mediates the Virus‐Vector‐Plant Tripartite Interactions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV) infection induces production of neophytadiene, a volatile resulting from chlorophyll degradation that is highly attractive to whiteflies. OBP2, an odorant‐binding protein from insect vector B. tabaci, exhibits a strong binding affinity for neophytadiene.

Improved Core Genes Prediction for Constructing well-supported Phylogenetic Trees in large sets of Plant Species [PDF]

Springer LNBI 9043, 2015, 379--390, 2015
The way to infer well-supported phylogenetic trees that precisely reflect the evolutionary process is a challenging task that completely depends on the way the related core genes have been found. In previous computational biology studies, many similarity based algorithms, mainly dependent on calculating sequence alignment matrices, have been proposed ...

Chloroplast genomes of photosynthetic eukaryotes [PDF]

The Plant Journal, 2011
SummaryChloroplast genomes have retained a core set of genes from their cyanobacterial ancestor, most of them required for the light reactions of photosynthesis or functions connected with transcription and translation. Other genes have been transferred to the nucleus or were lost in a lineage‐specific manner.

Manipulating the Light Systemic Signal HY5 Greatly Improve Fruit Quality in Tomato

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study establishes that HY5, activated by low‐dose light, acts as a systemic signal to enhance tomato fruit quality by directly promoting carotenoid synthesis and sugar metabolism. These findings demonstrate HY5's mobility from leaves to fruits and its application potential through nighttime LED lighting, offering a practical strategy for crop ...

Comparative analysis of chloroplast genomes in three Araceae species: genomic difference, genetic distance and species morphology association

Frontiers in Genetics
Many species in the Araceae have extremely high medicinal value, while the chloroplast genome is relatively conserved, and the encoded and expressed bioactive substances are also abundant.

Epistasis not needed to explain low dN/dS [PDF]

McCandlish, D. M., Rajon, E., Shah, P., Ding, Y., & Plotkin, J. B. (2013). The role of epistasis in protein evolution. Nature, 497(7451), E1-E2, 2012
An important question in molecular evolution is whether an amino acid that occurs at a given position makes an independent contribution to fitness, or whether its effect depends on the state of other loci in the organism's genome, a phenomenon known as epistasis. In a recent letter to Nature, Breen et al. (2012) argued that epistasis must be "pervasive

Electronic Nanomaterials for Plants: A Review on Current Advances and Future Prospects

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Global food security faces mounting challenges from climate change and rapid population growth. This review highlights the pivotal role of electronic nanomaterials–including metals, metal oxides, and carbon‐based structures–in enhancing plant photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, and stress resilience. Furthermore, it explores how emerging platforms such as
