A Bacterial Effector Hijacks NBR1 to Modulate Both Autophagy and Ubiquitination‐Mediated Degradation That Promotes Bacterial Infection

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autophagy and the ubiquitin/26S proteasome system (UPS) play critical roles in the immune defence of the host against pathogen invasion. As a countermeasure, pathogens deploy effector proteins to subvert or hijack autophagy and UPS processes.

LUCID: An Integrative Approach for Target Discovery and dsRNA Design in Plant Fungal Pathogens

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
LUCID: A computational pipeline for RNAi‐based biofungicide design. ABSTRACT Phytopathogenic fungi pose an escalating threat to global food security and ecosystem stability, as resistance and environmental concerns diminish the effectiveness of conventional fungicides.

H3K27me3‐Mediated Epigenetic Silencing of FgHMG1 Enables Fungal Host Immune Evasion

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) is essential for fungal pathogenicity, yet its contribution to pathogen–host interactions remains incompletely understood. Here, we profiled H3K27me3 dynamics in Fusarium graminearum during infection and identified 132 H3K27me3‐marked genes (FgHMGs).

A Novel Dual‐Target Compound Designed With Potent Herbicidal and Fungicidal Activity Inspired by Conserved Phytoene Synthase Domains

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The development of dual‐target inhibitors represents a cost‐effective strategy for integrated pest management. Here, we report the first dual‐target inhibitors designed against the evolutionarily conserved domain of phytoene synthase (PSY), a key enzyme in carotenoid biosynthesis.
