Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.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 ...

Leaf Structure and Hormonal Balance Modulate Host‐Specificity and Pathogenicity of Botrytis cinerea
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Botrytis cinerea, a highly successful necrotrophic fungal plant pathogen, demonstrates a remarkably broad host range, yet the precise factors governing its host specificity and its ability to coexist non‐pathogenically with plants remain unclear. This study systematically assessed host preference in a series of B. cinerea agricultural isolates,

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.

Soil inoculation enhances early‐phase reintroduction success in two rare plant species
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Reintroduction for conservation is an important measure to restore populations of vulnerable plant species. However, reintroduction success rates are relatively low. Inoculating reintroduced plants with facilitative microorganisms from native populations may enhance their performance.

Nitrogen‐Starved Wheat: A Multi‐Omics Perspective From Epigenome Regulation to Grain Quality
Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.This review establishes epigenetic regulation, specifically H3K27ac and H3K27me3 dynamics at nitrogen transporter, assimilation, and storage protein loci, as a principal determinant of cultivar‐specific nitrogen use efficiency in hexaploid wheat, independent of DNA sequence variation, and identifies the rhizosphere microbiome as an integral but ...

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.Abstract Camptothecin (CPT), a plant‐derived monoterpene indole alkaloid first identified in Camptotheca acuminata, is a drug precursor widely used for cancer chemotherapeutics. However, the full set of genes responsible for CPT biosynthesis remains unclear, hindering efforts to elucidate the complete pathway or establish biosynthetic production of CPT

Effect of Endophytic Fungi on Thrips tabaci Development and Population Dynamics
Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 8, Page 1102-1114, September 2026.ABSTRACT Endophytic fungi are promising biocontrol agents because they colonise healthy plant tissues asymptomatically while inducing systemic resistance that negatively affects herbivorous insects. We investigated whether treatments with the endophytes Trichoderma harzianum and Beauveria bassiana in two onion cultivars (Allium cepa L.; Sturon and Red ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6748-6764, September 2026.ABSTRACT Global warming and increasing water scarcity pose major challenges to agriculture, emphasising the need to translate stress‐biology insights into the development of drought‐resilient cultivars. In this study, we evaluated a panel of six diverse sorghum (Sorghum bicolour) accessions grown under field‐imposed drought conditions in central ...
