Cytokinins as key regulators in plant-microbe-insect interactions: connecting plant growth and defence [PDF]
Plant hormones play important roles in regulating plant growth and defence by mediating developmental processes and signalling networks involved in plant responses to a wide range of parasitic and mutualistic biotic interactions.

Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

Genetic basis for auxin induced pre-secretory starch accumulation in Platycodon grandiflorus
Nectar serves as the primary carbohydrate source for pollinators and defensive mutualists. Despite advancements in research, the mechanisms regulating pre-nectar carbohydrate transport from the phloem remain poorly understood.

Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

The ACC synthase (ACS): a key regulator of flower sex and inferior ovary formation in cucurbits
Ethylene is a crucial phytohormone that modulates flower sex determination and fruit development in cucurbit crops. In cucumbers, ACC synthase 2 (ACS2) controls the key step in the synthesis of ethylene, which regulates these two traits, demonstrating ...

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

A StbZIP53-like2–StERF091 module regulates the browning of fresh-cut potatoes
With the acceleration of modern life, fresh-cut potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) are very popular in our daily lives. However, surface browning is the major issue reducing the quality of fresh-cut potatoes during storage.

Plant Hormones: Key Players in Gut Microbiota and Human Diseases?
It is well established that plant hormones such as auxins, cytokinins (CKs), and abscisic acid (ABA) not only govern important plant physiological traits but are key players in plant–microbe interactions.
