Hemipteran vectors of stylet‐borne plant viruses: Aphids lead the charge
Among all sap‐feeding hemipterans, aphids stand out by far as the most important vectors of noncirculative plant viruses. Compared to whiteflies and mealybugs, aphids’ highly specialized stylet anatomy and distinct feeding behaviors contribute, together with other features of their biology, to their remarkable efficiency in transmitting stylet‐borne ...

ABSTRACT Transient expression of exogenous protein in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves via agroinfiltration offers a rapid and efficient platform for functional gene discovery and heterologous production of valuable eukaryotic proteins and metabolites. Though light quality is an important factor for plant photomorphogenesis, its impact on the efficiency of

ABSTRACT Plant‐fungus‐virus tripartite interactions represent complex ecological systems in which mutualistic endophytes can influence host physiology, yet the molecular basis of endophyte‐mediated defence remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that the endophytic fungus Penicillium pinophilum EU0013 suppresses the yellow strain of cucumber ...

Cucumber mosaic virus and turnip mosaic virus occurrence in garlic mustard in Ukraine
Garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata) is an herbaceous biennial plant native to Europe. In Ukraine, in addition to becoming a serious invader, garlic mustard can serve as a host to several viruses, which may affect agricultural crops. In view of this, the purpose of the study was to identify the virome of garlic mustard growing in Ukraine.

Harnessing Natural Diversity and Rational Design for Enhanced Plant Immunity
ABSTRACT Plant pathogens cause crop loss. Genetic resistance, through natural genetic diversity or engineered resistance, can be highly effective in protecting plants from infection. Genetic resistance from wild relatives of crops has been successfully introduced into crops to control pathogen infection.

Viral diseases are a major constraint to cucurbit production worldwide. In 2014 rainy and dry cropping seasons, cross-sectional surveys were conducted in farmers’ cucurbits fields in six agro-ecological zones (AEZs) of Côte d’Ivoire to assess prevalence ...

Seed Transmission of Cucumber Mosaic Virus in Spinach [PDF]
Spinach (Spinacia oleracea) seed from a commercial breeding line suspected of harboring cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) was analyzed for seed transmission of the virus. Initial seed grow-out tests and enzymelinked immunosorbent assay studies indicated that CMV was present in this seed lot at a level of nearly 15%.

This review summarizes the discovery, biosynthesis, and transport of strigolactone, and the D14‐D3/MAX2‐D53/SMXLs signaling module. It highlights diverse roles of strigolactone in plant architecture, stress responses, and crop breeding, including species‐specific functions, hormonal crosstalk, and agricultural applications.
