Defender or accomplice? Dual roles of plant vesicle trafficking in restricting and enabling geminiviral systemic infection

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 2986-3002, March 2026.
Summary The vesicle trafficking system enables multidirectional cargo fluxes between endomembrane compartments. However, vesicle trafficking plays dual roles during pathogen infections. In plants, it mediates autophagic immune responses but can also be hijacked by pathogens to facilitate successful infections.

Revisiting the relationship between stomatal size and speed across species – a meta‐analysis

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 2338-2354, March 2026.
Summary The rate of stomatal opening and closure in response to changes in light affects leaf photosynthesis and water use. However, it is unclear how strongly stomatal size (SS) and density (SD) influence stomatal conductance (gs) kinetics, and whether variation arises from methodological differences, guard cell type or degree of amphistomaty.

Early signals of water limitations begin at the root–soil interface: linking rhizosphere drying to water uptake decline

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 2909-2918, March 2026.
Summary Understanding when and where drought stress originates in the soil–plant continuum is essential for predicting plant responses to climate change. While stomatal closure is a well‐known reaction to declining soil moisture, the precise hydraulic trigger remains unresolved.

Stronger expression of crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) requires effective cuticular transpiration barriers but not necessarily strong succulence

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 2760-2775, March 2026.
Summary Discovering functional and evolutionary interdependencies of hydraulic traits and crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is crucial to understand CAM phenotype diversity and convergence. In complex traits such as CAM, the co‐option of associated traits strongly impacts the evolutionary outcome.

Optimization of carbon and nitrogen utilization for enhanced photosynthesis, biomass and yield by coexpression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, aspartate aminotransferase and glutamine synthetase in Brassica juncea

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1110-1132, March 2026.
Summary Coexpression of genes involved in carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) metabolism offers a promising avenue for improving crop yield. This study investigated the impact of coexpressing phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase [ZmPEPC (P)], aspartate aminotransferase [GmAspAT (A)] and glutamine synthetase [NtGS (G)] in Brassica juncea to enhance plant yield ...

Metabolomic and Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Analyses Shed Light on Secondary Metabolite Profiling and Potential Developmental Dynamics of Glandular Trichomes in Artemisia argyi

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1064-1081, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant glandular trichomes (GTs) are characterised by their ability to synthesise and store abundant secondary metabolites of significant biological importance. The medicinal plant Artemisia argyi exhibits a dense covering of GTs, yet the precise metabolic compositions and the developmental molecular dynamics of A.
