Unexpected Suppression of Tomato Fruit Cuticle Formation by Overexpression of a Key Cutin Biosynthetic Enzyme

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 5760-5773, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Fruit cuticles regulate the diffusion of water, gases and solutes, functioning as essential protective interfaces against environmental and biotic stresses. Engineering cuticle structure and mechanics therefore represents a promising strategy for improving fruit quality and resilience.

Metabolic Rewiring of the Shikimate Pathway Enables Rose‐Scented Rice

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 5741-5759, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Rice fragrance is a key determinant of grain quality, yet the aroma profile of cultivated rice is highly uniform and largely dominated by the popcorn‐like compound 2‐acetyl‐1‐pyrroline. Here we expanded the aromatic repertoire of rice by engineering a rose‐like fragrance through reconstruction of the phenylalanine‐derived 2‐phenylethanol (2‐PE)

CRISPR/Cas9‐Mediated Knockout of LbSP1 and LbSP5G1 Reveals Efficient Customization of Shoot Architecture in Black Goji Berry

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 5868-5890, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Goji is recognized as a nutritionally rich superfruit with medicinal and industrial importance. However, its inherently indeterminate growth habit causes asynchronous flowering and uneven fruit ripening, resulting in harvesting inefficiency with high labour costs and low fruit yield.

HvPHO1 Controls a Glucose 1‐Phosphate–SnRK1 Signalling Module That Coordinates Starch Accumulation in Barley Endosperm

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 5891-5910, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Developing barley grains must balance the use of imported sucrose between soluble sugars and storage starch, but how this balance is controlled remains unclear. Here we show that loss of the plastidial α‐glucan phosphorylase HvPHO1 causes starch and soluble sugars to accumulate concurrently in barley grains.

The evolution of the angiosperm plastid genome

open access: yes
Plastids originated from the endosymbiosis of a cyanobacterium by a eukaryotic cell approximately 1.5 billion years ago. Since then, their genome has undergone substantial reduction, with present day plastids retaining less than 5% of genes found in their cyanobacterial ancestor. Many of these remaining genes are essential for photosynthesis, including
