Rice black‐streaked dwarf virus‐encoded P6 protein impairs OsPelota‐mediated antiviral RNA decay defense via promoting OsSCE1b ubiquitination and degradation in rice

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The P6 protein encoded by rice black‐streaked dwarf virus enhances degradation of the rice SUMO E2 conjugating enzyme OsSCE1b through the ubiquitin/26S proteasome pathway; OsSCE1b degradation results in decreased SUMOylation of OsPelota, thereby suppressing RNA decay‐dependent antiviral defenses in rice. ABSTRACT Rice black‐streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV)

The road less taken: Dihydroflavonol 4‐reductase inactivation and delphinidin anthocyanin loss underpins a natural intraspecific flower colour variation

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Visual cues are of critical importance for the attraction of animal pollinators, however, little is known about the molecular mechanisms underpinning intraspecific floral colour variation. Here, we combined comparative spectral analysis, targeted metabolite profiling, multi‐tissue transcriptomics, differential gene expression, sequence ...

Blue light‐induced stomatal opening is associated with species‐specific changes in primary metabolism but not with starch breakdown in guard cells

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Blue light (BL)‐induced stomatal opening has been associated with starch breakdown within Arabidopsis guard cells (GCs). However, whether this mechanism is conserved in angiosperms and which metabolic pathways are activated downstream of BL perception and/or starch degradation, remains unknown.

MYC2 and MYC3 orchestrate pith lignification to defend Nicotiana attenuata stems against a stem‐boring weevil

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Lignin is a key structural polymer that also serves as a potent defense against biotic stress. Herbivore‐induced, jasmonate‐dependent pith lignification in Nicotiana attenuata plays a crucial role in defense against the stem‐borer Trichobaris mucorea.

Two plasmid‐borne virulence genomic islands of Clavibacter michiganensis are genetically diverse and determine the development of wilt symptoms in host plants

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Plasmids contribute to the efficient adaptation of bacteria to specific niches in nature. The gram‐positive bacterium Clavibacter michiganensis carries two plasmid‐borne important virulence genes, celA and pat‐1, necessary for wilting in tomato. The 88 C.

The rhizobial type III effectors ErnA and Sup3 hijack the SUMOylation pathway to trigger nodule formation in Aeschynomene species

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Rhizobial type III effectors (T3Es) play a crucial role in the symbiotic relationship between rhizobia and legumes by manipulating host cellular processes to promote nodule formation. Previously, we identified two T3Es, ErnA and Sup3, that trigger nodulation in Aeschynomene spp. in the absence of Nod factors.
