Winning by Losing: Exploiting Modified Plant Susceptibility Genes to Counteract Necrotrophic Fungal Pathogens

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The infection of plants by pathogens is an intricate process in which genes from both the host and pathogen contribute to the infection process. Susceptibility (S) genes have been defined as plant genes that encode functions that are exploited by pathogens to invade and reproduce in host plants. Mutations in S‐genes therefore result in reduced

Light‐Signalling Regulators GmSTF3/4 Enhance Soybean Susceptibility to Cyst Nematodes via Activation of Sugar Transporters

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soybean cyst nematode (SCN; Heterodera glycines Ichinohe) is a plant‐parasitic nematode that causes substantial yield losses in soybean production. Light signalling is a critical environmental factor that influences photomorphogenesis and carbohydrate metabolism.

De Novo Design and Synthesis of Novel Benzoxazinone Derivatives Targeting Dihydroxyacid Dehydratase

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dihydroxyacid dehydratase (DHAD), a key enzyme in the branched‐chain amino acid (BCAA) synthesis pathway, is a promising herbicide target. Currently, no commercial herbicides target DHAD, and no inhibitors are in development. Structural analysis suggests that coordination with iron–sulfur clusters and hydrophobic interactions with Tyr215 and ...

The Zma‐miRNA319‐ZmMYB74 Module Regulates Maize Resistance to Stalk Rot Disease by Modulating Lignin Deposition

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stalk rot, primarily caused by Fusarium graminearum (Fg) and Pythium inflatum (Pi), is a major maize disease responsible for significant yield losses. The molecular mechanisms governing defence against these pathogens remain poorly understood. To uncover key miRNAs and their regulatory genes, small RNA, degradome, and transcriptome sequencing ...
