Polar-localized EXO70G1 regulates root development in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
The putative exocyst subunit EXO70G1 exhibits apical‐basal polarity in Arabidopsis root cells; this polarity stabilizes membrane domains to facilitate targeting of the auxin transporter PIN‐FORMED2 during root development. ABSTRACT Cellular asymmetry, which represents a fundamental characteristic of cell polarity, is prominently illustrated by the ...

The mutual influence of microtubules and the cortical ER on their coordinated organisation. [PDF]
Abstract The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the largest organelle in terms of membrane content, occupying the entire cytoplasmic volume. It is tethered to the cell cortex through ER‐plasma membrane contact sites (EPCS). Previous studies have shown that EPCSs labelled by VAP27 align with cortical microtubules, and that ER tubules elongate along ...

RNAi reveals a unique set of kinesins mediating chloroplast motility in the giant cytoplasm of Bryopsis (Ulvophyceae), a coenocytic green alga. [PDF]
Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool for protein knockdown and is widely used in model animals and plants. Here, we implemented RNAi in Bryopsis, a green feather alga that develops a coenocytic thallus >10 cm in length without cytokinesis.

Shifting Routes: Plant-Specific Insert Trafficking and Function in Arabidopsis Seedlings Under Abiotic Stress. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Cardosins A and B are aspartic proteinases found in cardoon that share high sequence similarity, accumulate in the vacuole, and are responsive to stress conditions. These proteins have a 100 amino acid domain termed Plant Specific Insert (PSI), responsible for their vacuolar targeting.

SPY Interacts With Tubulin and Regulates Abscisic Acid-Induced Stomatal Closure in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Sugars are important both as an energy source and a signaling cue. In Arabidopsis thaliana, SPINDLY (SPY) is the bona fide O‐fucosylation transferase that links sugar with various plant growth and development processes. Previously, spy was shown to display a strong salt and drought tolerance phenotype.

Adventitious shoot growth in Grammatophylum scriptum var. Leopard Blume under colchicine and oryzalin applications [PDF]
Grammatophylum scriptum var. Leopard Blume is of great demand due to its uniqueness flowers showing tiger-like patterns in color. This can still be developed further to make it the main element of a cut flower arrangement.

MDP25-VDAC3 Complex Orchestrates Actin Remodeling and Mitochondrial Dynamics to Modulate Innate Immunity in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
This study reveals that actin remodeling regulates mitochondrial elongation as a defense strategy in plants. Flagellin perception induces fusion‐dependent elongation, supported by cortical actin bundles, to repair damage and boost ATP and ROS production.
