The IKU2/RLK7–MAPK–MINI3 signaling module controls endosperm cellularization timing to determine seed size in Arabidopsis

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 9, Page 3374-3390, September 2026.
The phosphorylation status of the WRKY transcription factor WRKY10/MINI3, controls the timing of endosperm cellularization in Arabidopsis, thus regulating final seed size, offering a molecular understanding that could inform future agricultural breeding strategies. ABSTRACT Seed size is a critical factor in determining crop yield.

Systemic acquired resistance: an emerging role for jasmonates in local signal biogenesis, translocation and distal signal decoding

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 6, Page 3142-3158, September 2026.
Jasmonate signalling underpins establishment of plant systemic acquired resistance (SAR). Activation of the hypersensitive response (HR) not only contains the pathogen but establishes broad spectrum resistance in unchallenged leaves. The strong burst of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species initiating the HR results in lipid peroxidation (illustrated by ...

A Novel AP2/ERF Transcription Factor Controls Trichome Initiation and Fruit Development in Cucumber

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 9, Page 5077-5093, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Trichomes, the hair‐like outgrowths of the plant epidermis, are critical for defence, reproduction and development. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms governing their initiation remain elusive. Here, we identified CsGL2, an AP2/ERF transcription factor, as a key integrator controlling trichome initiation and fruit development in ...

GmDOF3.1‐GmCPX Module Regulates Nodulation and Nitrogen Fixation Abilities in Soybean

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 9, Page 5041-5058, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Soybean nodule nitrogen fixation is very important, which can provide a large amount of nitrogen supply for its own growth and that of other crops, but the mechanism is largely unclear. In the present study, a coproporphyrinogen oxidase gene, GmCPX, was identified to facilitate soybean nodulation and nitrogen‐fixation under the regulation of ...

Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 9, Page 5013-5040, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

Systemic and Local Regulation of Root Growth by Vascular Trehalose 6‐Phosphate is Correlated With Re‐allocation of Primary Metabolites Between Shoots and Roots

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6361-6379, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Trehalose 6‐phoshpate (Tre6P) is a key signalling molecule that reflects carbon status and integrates it with developmental decision making. Tre6P has been demonstrated to regulate various developmental processes, including vegetative growth, shoot branching, flowering, and root branching.

Nitric Oxide and Phytohormone Crosstalk Mediates Soybean Growth and Defence Against Aphis glycines

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aphid infestation, particularly by Aphis glycines, poses a major threat to soybean (Glycine max) production, necessitating sustainable defence strategies. This study evaluated the role of nitric oxide (NO) donor S‐nitrosocysteine (CySNO) in enhancing soybean resistance to aphids through hormonal crosstalk.

Natural Etiolation in Spearmint (Mentha spicata L. var. crispa) Shoots Emerging From Rhizomes—Plastids, Glandular Hairs, and Phytochemical Profile

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Spearmint (Mentha spicata L. var. crispa) is a widely cultivated aromatic herb valued both as a culinary ingredient and as a source of bioactive compounds, such as essential oils and phenolics, which contribute to its traditional uses and potential medicinal applications.
