ABSTRACT Seed defence priming is emerging as a novel, cost‐efficient and environmentally safe tool for pest management. It has been proposed as a means to uncouple the defence‐growth trade‐off in plants by enhancing defence responses with minimal fitness costs, but the mechanisms underlying this role remain elusive.

SUMMARY To investigate whether root‐sourced ethylene‐precursor 1‐aminocyclopropane‐1‐carboxylic acid (ACC) modulates long‐term salinity responses in tomato, a commercial variety (Solanum lycopersicum L. Mill) was grafted onto three rootstocks differing in ACC/ethylene production: an ethylene‐overproducing mutant (epinastic, epi), a root‐specific ACC ...

Plasticity of metabolism in plants
SUMMARY The ability of plants to reprogram their metabolism in response to fluctuating environments, referred to as metabolic plasticity, is a key feature that enables sessile organisms to maintain growth, survival, and reproduction under changing conditions.

SUMMARY Plant hypocotyls are central to seedling establishment in variable light environments. Although core photoreceptor pathways regulating hypocotyl elongation are well defined, the molecular basis of natural variation in this trait—particularly through posttranscriptional regulation—remains poorly understood.

SUMMARY Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum) is renowned for its adaptability to complex growing conditions and stress tolerance. However, soil‐borne necrotrophic pathogens such as Rhizoctonia solani frequently cause devastating diseases that severely compromise its yield and quality. In this study, through a genome‐wide association study (GWAS), we
