Converging GWAS and Genome Editing Decrypts MsCBF8‐MsGolS2 Regulatory Module for Drought Tolerance Without Yield Penalty in Medicago sativa

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought constitutes a major abiotic stress limiting alfalfa productivity. To elucidate the genetic basis of drought tolerance, a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) was conducted in alfalfa, which identified a CBF/DREB1 family transcription factor designated MsCBF8.

An Intronic Structural Variant in GhEBS1 Drives Cotton Fruit Size Divergence by Modulating Chromatin Accessibility and Gene Expression

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fruit size is not only a crucial fitness trait in plant evolution but also an important agronomic target in crop domestication and improvement, yet its regulatory mechanisms remain poorly characterized. Here, we identified an F‐box E3 ubiquitin ligase gene, GhEBS1 (ENLARGED BOLL SIZE 1), as a positive regulator of cotton boll size via map ...

Genome‐Wide Association Study Elucidates the Genetic Architecture of Manganese Tolerance in Brassica napus

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brassica napus (canola) is a significant contributor to the world's oil production and is cultivated across continents, yet acidic soils with aluminium (Al3+) and manganese (Mn2+) toxicities limit its production. The genetic determinants underlying natural variation for acidic soil tolerance in canola are unknown and need to be determined ...

The Wild Soybean C3HC4‐Type RING Zinc‐Finger Protein ZFP4 Enhances Resistance to Soybean Mosaic Virus

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is a globally important source of protein and edible oil, but is severely threatened by soybean mosaic virus (SMV). Wild soybean [Glycine soja Sieb. & Zucc.], the wild ancestor of cultivated soybean, exhibits high genetic diversity and strong resistance to pathogens.

Nitroalkylation Mediated by Nitro‐Fatty Acids Is Involved in Key Physiological Processes During Arabidopsis thaliana Development

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nitro‐fatty acids (NO2‐FAs) are potent electrophiles that react with nucleophilic residues in proteins (cysteines, histidines and lysines) via a process known as nitroalkylation. This reversible post‐translational modification (PTM) functions as a selective signalling mechanism by modulating the structure, transport, and catalysis of target ...

Pinus‐derived membrane vesicles disrupt pathogenic metabolism in fungi

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Needle‐derived vesicles from pine trees impair fungal metabolism and growth, offering a sustainable strategy to control pine pitch canker disease. Abstract Much of what we know about the biological impacts of vesicles (MVs) is derived from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Black mangrove growth and root architecture in recycled glass sand: testing a new substrate for coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.

Oleaginous yeasts: Time to rethink the definition?

Yeast, 2022
Oleaginous yeasts are typically defined as those able to accumulate more than 20% of their cell dry weight as lipids or triacylglycerides. Research on these yeasts has increased lately fuelled by an interest to use biotechnology to produce lipids and ...

Strategies for an improved extraction and separation of lipids and carotenoids from oleaginous yeast

Separation and Purification Technology, 2021
Currently, downstream processing of oleaginous yeast is expensive and unfeasible. To decrease processing costs and support the industrial application of this type of microorganism, this study proposes a new strategy for simultaneous recovery and further ...
