A MaERF110‐MaMYB308 Transcriptional Module Negatively Regulates Lignin‐Mediated Defence Against Fusarium Wilt in Banana

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fusarium wilt of banana (FWB), caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), threatens global banana production. Lignin reinforces cell walls against pathogens and lodging, yet its regulatory mechanisms in banana remain elusive. Through genome‐wide association study (GWAS) of lignin content across 184 banana accessions, we identified ...

Rewiring Steroidal Metabolic Pathways for Diosgenin Production in Solanum nigrum

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diosgenin is a key starting material for the synthesis of steroidal drugs, such as corticosteroids and sex hormones. While the primary commercial source of diosgenin is the tubers of Dioscorea spp., identifying alternative plant hosts capable of diosgenin biosynthesis could enhance its production.

The Structure of Carboxyl Methyltransferase Provides Insights Into the Substrate Specificity and Divergent Evolution of Iridoid

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iridoids constitute a prominent class of plant‐specialised metabolites, with carbocyclic iridoids (e.g., geniposide) and secoiridoids (e.g., loganin) diverging early in their biosynthetic pathways. This divergence is marked by substrate‐specific carboxyl methyltransferases—GjGAMT and CrLAMT—that catalyse the decisive methylation step in ...

The miR171a‐TaSCL6‐1 Module Acts Downstream of miR164‐Targeted TaNAC21/22 to Regulate Leaf Rust Resistance in Wheat

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wheat leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina, poses a significant threat to global wheat production. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of plant growth, development and stress responses; however, their role in wheat resistance to leaf rust remains poorly understood.

Metabolic Enzyme MeHNL11 Regulates MeCAS1b Transcription for Cyanide Reutilization in Response to Nitrate Deficiency in Cassava

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) exhibits exceptional tolerance to infertile soils and contains abundant cyanogenic glucosides (CGs). Previous research has indicated that CGs can serve as a significant reservoir of organic nitrogen in plants.
