ABSTRACT Anthocyanin biosynthesis in non‐climacteric grape berries is regulated through coordinated phytohormonal signalling networks. However, the precise mechanisms by which abscisic acid (ABA), brassinosteroids (BRs) and ethylene (ET) synergistically modulate this process remain unclear.

ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes can form a hydrophobic barrier on aerial plant surfaces, which is essential for mediating plant‐environment interactions by providing protection against both biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study, a cuticular wax mutant (gl) was identified and characterised in Welsh onion (Allium fistulosum L.), exhibiting a functional ...

ABSTRACT Lignin, a major cell‐wall component of woody biomass, exhibits photoluminescent (PL) properties. Controlling the intensity and colour of the PL is essential for producing lignin‐based value‐added materials. Herein, we modify the PL properties of lignin via genetic engineering of novel luminophore structures. Feruloyl‐CoA 6′‐hydroxylase (F6′H1)

ABSTRACT After an initial evolution in a reducing environment, life got successively challenged by reactive oxygen species (ROS), especially during the great oxidation event (GOE) that followed the development of photosynthesis. Therefore, ROS are deeply intertwined into the physiological, morphological and transcriptional responses of most present‐day

ABSTRACT Bacteriophages impact soil bacteria through lysis, altering the availability of organic carbon and plant nutrients. However, the magnitude of nutrient uptake by plants from lysed bacteria remains unknown, partly because this process is challenging to investigate in the field.

ABSTRACT Seed defence priming is emerging as a novel, cost‐efficient and environmentally safe tool for pest management. It has been proposed as a means to uncouple the defence‐growth trade‐off in plants by enhancing defence responses with minimal fitness costs, but the mechanisms underlying this role remain elusive.

Tomato Roots Exhibit Development‐Specific Responses to Bacterial‐Derived Peptides
ABSTRACT To combat soilborne pathogens, roots activate pattern‐triggered immunity (PTI) through pattern‐recognition receptors (PRRs) that recognise microbe‐associated molecular patterns (MAMPs). Root PTI pathways can differ from their above‐ground counterparts and have been well‐characterised in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana but are not well ...

ABSTRACT Boron toxicity (BT) is a significant environmental stressor that negatively affects plant development, yet its molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Interestingly, certain toxic concentrations of boron trigger hypocotyl elongation, suggesting a complex hormonal response. In this study, we focus on the role of brassinosteroids (BRs) in

Overexpression of Tempranillo‐Like Proteins Promotes Dormancy Release in Poplar
ABSTRACT Trees in temperate and boreal latitudes synchronize their growth‐dormancy cycles with seasonal environmental variations to ensure their survival over the years. Dormancy control is crucial during winter when plants cease growth and establish buds to protect their apical meristems from cold temperatures.

ABSTRACT Glucosinolates (GSLs) are secondary metabolites central to plant defence in the Brassicaceae family. While the role of histone modifications in developmental gene regulation is well studied, their function in stress‐induced secondary metabolism remains unclear.
