Deciphering the role of monoacylglycerol lipases (MAGL) under abiotic stress and lipid metabolism in soybean (Glycine max L.)

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) is involved in the last step of triacylglycerol breakdown by hydrolysing the monoacylglycerol (MAG) to free fatty acid and glycerol. In the present study, 21 and 38 MAGL genes were identified in Glycine max (cultivated soybean) and Glycine soja (wild) genomes, respectively.

High‐level production of health‐beneficial glucoraphanin by multiplex editing of AOP2 gene family in mustard

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Intake of glucosinolates through the consumption of cruciferous vegetables has been associated with numerous health benefits. In recent decades, glucosinolate glucoraphanin has gained a lot of attention, as its hydrolysis product (sulforaphane) is known to possess numerous health‐promoting benefits, including anti‐cancer and chemopreventive ...

IbPIF1 confers stem nematode resistance by regulating secondary metabolites in sweet potato

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary The stem nematode (Ditylenchus destructor Thorne) is a pervasive and destructive plant‐parasitic nematode worldwide, inflicting severe agricultural and economic losses in a wide range of crops. Despite its global impact, the molecular mechanisms underlying plant resistance to this pathogen remain poorly understood. Our previous studies in sweet

Pathogenic Deep Intronic PCSK1 Variant Causes Proprotein Convertase 1/3 Deficiency in a Family. [PDF]

Clin Genet
Biallelic PCSK1 loss‐of‐function mutations cause proprotein convertase 1/3 (PC1/3) deficiency, a polyendocrinopathy; a total of 36 patients were reported. The first deep intronic PCSK1 variant, (NM_000439.5):c.1196+2681T>A, was found to segregate with the disease in a consanguineous family, and is shown together with 32 reported mutations.

Largest genome assembly in Brassicaceae: retrotransposon‐driven genome expansion and karyotype evolution in Matthiola incana

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Matthiola incana, commonly known as stock and gillyflower, is a widely grown ornamental plant whose genome is significantly larger than that of other species in the mustard family. However, the evolutionary history behind such a large genome (~2 Gb) is still unknown.

Identification of a hydroxycinnamoyl‐CoA double bond reductase (HDR) affirms multiple pathways for dihydrochalcone formation in apple

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Dihydrochalcones are secondary metabolites with manifold dietary and pharmaceutical properties, but with a yet unclear function in plants. The abundance of dihydrochalcones, particularly phloridzin, makes Malus ssp. unique in the plant kingdom. The gene(s)/enzyme(s) for the key reaction in phloridzin biosynthesis, the reduction in the C3‐bridge

Overexpression of miR399d impairs arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis in tomato

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis (AMS) is a pervasive mutualistic interaction that is prevalent among fungi and the majority of terrestrial plant species. AMS host plants possess an alternative phosphate (Pi) acquisition pathway via arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in addition to direct Pi uptake by the root epidermis.

A semi‐dominant NLR allele regulates growth and disease resistance in wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Wheat powdery mildew is a significant threat to wheat production, necessitating the development of disease‐resistant varieties as an economically viable and environmentally sustainable strategy. In this study, we investigated a semi‐dominant mutant, necrosis leaf (necl), which exhibits spontaneous necrotic lesions and enhanced resistance to ...

A Role for the Plastidial GPT2 Translocator in the Modulation of Lignin Biosynthesis

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Engineering plants with reduced lignin content can result in pleiotropic growth defects. In stems of Arabidopsis plants with reduced expression of hydroxycinnamoyl CoA: shikimate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT), the plastidial glucose 6‐phosphate: phosphate co‐transporter GPT2 is highly overexpressed, and this coincides with reduced lignin ...
