Mechanisms driving functional divergence of transcription factor paralogs

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Transcription factors (TFs) are core components of the regulatory toolkits that control gene expression. The sophistication of these regulatory toolkits dramatically increased during Eukaryotic evolution, accomplished in part by the duplication of existing TFs and the subsequent repurposing of these new paralogs. This process, termed functional

Plant‐derived vesicle‐like nanoparticles in food crops: emerging insights into nutritional biofortification and biomedical applications

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Food crops, as the cornerstone of human nutrition, not only provide essential macronutrients but also encompass a rich spectrum of bioactive compounds that promote health. Of particular significance are underutilized minor crops, which contain unique beneficial components with proven nutraceutical properties. These valuable bioactive components

Cell death‐inducing DNA fragmentation factor alpha (DFFA)‐like effectors (CIDEs) improve lipid droplet (LD) formation and oil accumulation in plant tissues

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary The cell death‐inducing DNA fragmentation factor alpha (DFFA)‐like effectors (CIDEs), including CIDEA, CIDEB and CIDEC, regulate the number and size of lipid droplets (LDs) in vertebrates. However, no homologue of CIDE has been reported in plants.

RD21 enhances resistance to the strawberry vein banding virus by promoting autophagy‐mediated degradation of the viral silencing suppressor P6 protein

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Responsive to desiccation 21 (RD21) is a papain‐like cysteine protease (PLCP). PLCPs are involved in plant growth and development, as well as stress and plant immune responses. Currently, few studies have reported on the involvement of PLCPs in defence against viral infections.
