Domestication‐Selected Promoter Insertion in WRKY17 Increases Cadmium Sensitivity in Apple

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With increasing industrialisation and human activities, heavy metal pollution has become a serious environmental concern, particularly cadmium (Cd) contamination. This study reveals significant differences in Cd tolerance between wild apple (Malus spp.) and cultivated apple (Malus domestica).

High‐Efficiency and Eco‐Friendly Management of Multiple Fungal Diseases by a Novel Carbon Dots sCDP Delivered RNA Nano‐Pesticides

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT RNA‐based pesticides represent a transformative approach in agricultural disease management, offering an environmentally sustainable alternative to conventional chemical fungicides. However, key challenges such as rapid RNA degradation in the environment and inefficient uptake hinder widespread adoption.

ZmTH1 Is Vital for Healthy Plant Growth and Promotes Cold/Drought Tolerance by Regulating Thiamin Diphosphate‐Dependent Metabolisms in Maize

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vitamin B1 (VB1) plays a crucial role in sustaining plant health and enabling adaptive responses to environmental stress. The complex maize genome implies a sophisticated VB1 synthesis pathway, with the mechanisms by which VB1 benefits plants remaining elusive.

MicroRNA‐Induced Gene Silencing (MIGS): A Tool for Multi‐Gene Silencing and Targeting Viruses in Plants

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since its discovery, RNA interference (RNAi, also known as gene silencing) has been a key tool to downregulate gene expression in plants for a range of applications, including protection against viruses. Many of these applications require the silencing of multiple genes concomitantly.

The ZmFKF1b‐ZmDi19‐5 Regulatory Module Coordinates Drought Tolerance and Flowering Time in Maize

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought is a major environmental stress that inhibits plant growth and reduces crop yields. The Di19 gene family is known to play a pivotal role in mediating plant responses to drought. However, the mechanisms by which Di19 proteins integrate drought response with developmental processes, particularly flowering time, remain largely unknown in ...
