Natural variation in the promoter of OsPDX1.2 enhances vitamin B6 accumulation and cold tolerance in rice

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Allelic variation in the promoter of the pyridoxal phosphate synthase OsPDX1.2 caused variation in the ACE‐box cis‐elements, resulting in differing OsPDX1.2 expression due to differences in binding affinity between the OsbZIP18 transcriptipn factor and the ACE‐box, contributing to variation in vitamin B6 levels and cold tolerance among rice varieties ...

Engineered Yarrowia lipolytica inducing gene silencing confers control ability against gray mold in plants

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Engineered the plant‐colonizing yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to produce and deliver double‐stranded RNAs targeting key genes of the gray mold fungus Botrytis cinerea produced a ‘living factory’ that continuously synthesizes and releases gene‐silencing molecules on plant surfaces, effectively suppressing the pathogen.

A NAC–MYB–cysteine regulatory module enhances drought and salt tolerance in soybean

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In the GmNAC3—GmMYB60—GmCYS20 module, GmNAC3 represses the transcription factor gene GmMYB60 and GmMYB60 suppresses the cysteine biosynthetic gene GmCYS20. GmCYS20‐mediated cysteine metabolism feeds back to limit GmMYB60 activity. This transcription—metabolism circuit enhances stress tolerance and offers breeding targets for resilient soybean ...

Genetic, phenotypic, and ecological differentiation indicate a new cryptic and threatened species in the orchid genus Epidendrum from Alcatrazes Island, southeastern Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Epidendrum insularis occurs on the remote Alcatrazes Island in the southeastern Brazilian coast. The description of this new cryptic species was only possible by the joint use of molecular markers, reproductive experiments, flower morphometry, functional traits, and community analysis.

Ecological and genomic variation in ectomycorrhizal fungal exploration types

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) produce mycelia with variable extension and complexity, which can be classified according to soil ‘exploration types’ (ETs). ETs have received attention as one of the few mycorrhizal trait frameworks, but without an empirical classification of ET functional diversity and environmental preferences, understanding and ...

Efficiency of RNAi‐based gene silencing in fungi: a meta‐analysis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Mechanistic interpretation of RNAi efficiency across fungal lifestyles and delivery strategies based on the present meta‐analysis. Summary RNA interference (RNAi) shows great potential to protect crops against fungal diseases, yet reported protection efficiencies vary greatly, and our understanding of the factors responsible for this variance remains ...

Experimental and genomic evidence clarifies the mycorrhizal helper role of a widespread bacterium in Bishop pine forests

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Hypothetical model of Paraburkholderia–EcMF–Bishop pine interactions. Summary Whether a widespread bacterial strain of Paraburkholderia can enhance the physiological responses of ectomycorrhizal fungi (EcMF) and host Bishop pine seedling growth remains unclear. We developed a ‘top‐down meets bottom‐up’ approach that harmonized data from molecular field

Intraspecific variation in an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus affects a plant and an AMF community

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Mesocosm placement within the growing facility. Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) show substantial genetic, trait, and functional variation within species. Whether this intraspecific variability has community‐level consequences for plant and AMF communities is unclear.

MicroRNA 160 controls the auxin response factor–class III peroxidase module and couples salicylic acid and redox signaling networks in the potato hypersensitive response to potato virus Y

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
miR160 links salicylic acid, auxin, and redox signaling with the growth–defense trade‐off in the potato hypersensitive response to potato virus Y. Summary Hypersensitive response (HR) is an effector‐triggered immune response leading to pathogen restriction and local cell death.
