Production of a subunit vaccine candidate against porcine post-weaning diarrhea in high-biomass transplastomic tobacco [PDF]

, 2012
Post-weaning diarrhea (PWD) in piglets is a major problem in piggeries worldwide and results in severe economic losses. Infection with Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is the key culprit for the PWD disease.

Serine Palmitoyltransferase, the First Step Enzyme in Sphingolipid Biosynthesis, Is Involved in Nonhost Resistance

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2009
An overexpression screen of Nicotiana benthamiana cDNAs identified a gene for the LCB2 subunit of serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) as a potent inducer of hypersensitive response-like cell death.

BLADE‐ON‐PETIOLE Genes Enable Genetic Bottleneck Mitigation Through Cross‐Species Repurposing of Floral Persistence Traits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that BLADE‐ON‐PETIOLE (BOP) proteins regulate floral abscission and senescence in tomato by interacting with TFAM1 to form transcriptional condensates controlling the ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA HOMEOBOX GENE 1 (ATH1)‐mediated abscission pathway.

Molecular studies of Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) in transgenic N. benthamiana and S. tuberosum

Plant Protection Science, 2002
Resistance to Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) was studied in Nicotiana benthamiana and potato (Solanum tuberosum cv.Saturna) transformed with the coat protein (CP) gene of PMTV. In N.

A seed-specific regulator of triterpene saponin biosynthesis in Medicago truncatula [PDF]

, 2020
Plants produce a vast array of defense compounds to protect themselves from pathogen attack or herbivore predation. Saponins are a specific class of defense compounds comprising bioactive glycosides with a steroidal or triterpenoid aglycone backbone. The

Hijacking the Host Clock: A Nematode Effector Antagonizes Soybean Circadian Defense and Translation Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Soybean employs its circadian clock, governed by GmCCA1, to rhythmically defend against soybean cyst nematodes. The pathogen retaliates by secreting the effector Hg4E02, which hijacks the clock to suppress defense and co‐opt the host's translation machinery for nutrient acquisition.

A homology-guided, genome-based proteome for improved proteomics in the alloploid Nicotiana benthamiana

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background Nicotiana benthamiana is an important model organism of the Solanaceae (Nightshade) family. Several draft assemblies of the N. benthamiana genome have been generated, but many of the gene-models in these draft assemblies appear incorrect ...

Eggplant and related species are promising genetic resources to dissect the plant immune response to Pseudomonas syringae and Xanthomonas euvesicatoria and to identify new resistance determinants [PDF]

, 2014
The apparent lack of durability of many resistance (R) genes highlights the need for the constant identification of new genetic sources of resistance for the breeding of new disease-resistant crop cultivars.

Drought survival strategies of Nicotiana benthamiana

, 2023
This study uncovered dramatically different survival strategies to water deprivation within the same species of an Australian native plant, Nicotiana benthamiana. One strain, from central Australia, has evolved the drought escape strategy of early vigour and short life cycle, with little responsiveness to water scarcity.

Engineering terpenoid production through transient expression in Nicotiana benthamiana [PDF]

Plant Cell Reports, 2018
Terpenoids are the most structurally diverse class of plant natural products with a huge range of commercial and medical applications. Exploiting this enormous potential has historically been hindered due to low levels of these compounds in their natural sources, making isolation difficult, while their structural complexity frequently makes synthetic ...
