Guard cell‐specific glycine decarboxylase manipulation affects Arabidopsis photosynthesis, growth and stomatal behavior

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Photorespiration is a mandatory metabolic repair shunt of carbon fixation by the Calvin–Benson cycle in oxygenic phototrophs. Its extent depends mainly on the CO2 : O2 ratio in chloroplasts, which is regulated via stomatal movements. Despite a comprehensive understanding of the role of photorespiration in mesophyll cells, its role in guard ...

Expression of endochitinase and exochitinase in lettuce chloroplasts increases plant biomass and kills fungal pathogen Candida albicans

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Expression of exochitinase and endochitinase in lettuce highlights the potential of chloroplast genetic engineering for sustainable agriculture and biomedical applications, offering a safer alternative to chemical fertilizers and fungicides. Summary Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) is a popular leafy vegetable with global production of ~28 million Mt ...

Bivariate change point detection in movement direction and speed [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Biological movement patterns can sometimes be quasi linear with abrupt changes in direction and speed, as in plastids in root cells investigated here. For the analysis of such changes we propose a new stochastic model for movement along linear structures.

OsLC1, a transaldolase, regulates cell patterning and leaf morphology through modulation of secondary metabolism

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Leaf morphogenesis is a crucial process in plants that governs essential physiological functions such as photosynthesis and transpiration. Despite significant advances in understanding leaf development, the mechanism of intricate cellular patterning remains elusive.

Mitochondrial gene editing and allotopic expression unveil the role of orf125 in the induction of male fertility in some Solanum spp. hybrids and in the evolution of the common potato

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Genic‐cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) due to interactions between nuclear and cytoplasmic genomes is a well‐known phenomenon in some Solanum spp. hybrids, but genes involved are not known. In this study, the chondriomes of two isonuclear male‐fertile and sterile somatic hybrids (SH9A and SH9B, respectively) between the common potato (S ...

TaWUS‐like‐5D affects grain weight and filling by inhibiting the expression of sucrose and trehalose metabolism‐related genes in wheat grain endosperm

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Plant‐specific WUSCHEL‐related homeobox (Wox) transcription factors (TFs) are crucial for plant growth and development. However, the molecular mechanism of Wox‐mediated regulation of thousand kernel weight (TKW) in crops remains elusive. In this research, we identified a major TKW‐associated quantitative trait locus (QTL) on wheat chromosome ...
