Molecular studies of Arabidopsis and Brassica with focus on resistance to Leptosphaeria maculans [PDF]
, 2001 Blackleg caused by Leptosphaeria maculans is a widespread fungal disease on B~assica napus (oilseed rape). In contrast, Arabidopsis thaliana and B. nigra are in general highly resistant. This study presents results from genomic interaction between the A.

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.The crystal structures of Arabidopsis thaliana γ‐glutamyl peptidase 1 (GGP1), including the covalent intermediate state, were determined. GGP1 is involved in both glutathione degradation in the primary metabolism and glutathione conjugate processing in the secondary metabolism of glucosinolate and camalexin biosynthesis.

Functional characterization of NRT1/PTR FAMILY transporters: looking for a needle in a haystack
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary NRT1/PTR FAMILY (NPF) transporters play crucial roles in plant physiology and development due to their involvement in nitrogen nutrition and their ability to transport multiple signaling molecules and metabolites. Whereas most eukaryotic and prokaryotic NPF orthologs are peptide transporters, most flowering plant NPF transport other substrates ...

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Agrobacterium‐mediated transformation by floral inoculation (AMT‐FI) enables genetic engineering without tissue culture. It is widely used in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, yet its efficiency and broader applicability remain limited. Here, we used a dual‐reporter system (RUBY and hygromycin resistance) to identify key floral stages and ...
