Natural variation in the GNH1 promoter enhances plant height and grain yield in rice

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Natural variation in the GRAIN NUMBER AND PLANT HEIGHT 1 (GNH1) promoter alleviates repression by the C2H2‐type transcription factor ZFP36, upregulating GNH1 expression and promoting auxin accumulation, thereby increasing rice plant height and grain yield. This elite allele serves as a valuable genetic resource for molecular breeding of high‐yield rice.

Natural variation in GmSOP5 regulates seed oil and protein content during soybean domestication

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The domestication‐related gene Seed Oil and Protein 5 regulates seed oil and protein content without a yield penalty, providing insight into early soybean domestication and identifying a genetic pathway that balances the trade‐off between seed quality and yield in soybean.

Rapid Translation of the Early Coding Region Promotes Premature Transcription Termination, Reducing Protein Expression in Escherichia coli

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
A run of consecutive fast‐translated codons (right) within the first 30 codons of lacZ (top) causes loss of the downstream transcript at positions coinciding with previously mapped intragenic Rho‐dependent termination sites (middle), and a corresponding loss of β‐galactosidase activity (bottom).

Natural and CRISPR/Cas9 Editing Variations of Dual‐uORFs Synergistically Increase the Nutritional Value of Silage Maize Feed

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The precise enhancement of nutritional quality in silage maize is a core strategy for increasing livestock production efficiency. Through evolutionary analysis of multiple plant species, we identified two functionally synergistic upstream open reading frames (uORF1 and uORF2) within the 5′ untranslated region of the gene encoding GDP‐L ...

Converging GWAS and Genome Editing Decrypts MsCBF8‐MsGolS2 Regulatory Module for Drought Tolerance Without Yield Penalty in Medicago sativa

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought constitutes a major abiotic stress limiting alfalfa productivity. To elucidate the genetic basis of drought tolerance, a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) was conducted in alfalfa, which identified a CBF/DREB1 family transcription factor designated MsCBF8.

A Lambda Red Recombinase‐Assisted CRISPR/Cas9 System for Efficient and Precise Genome Editing in Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a powerful delivery tool for plant genetic transformation and a pivotal platform for agricultural biotechnology. However, laboratory strains of Agrobacterium have remained genetically unoptimized for decades, with genome engineering hindered by inefficient, endogenous homologous recombination systems.

Hepatitis B virus infection with high HBsAg and undetectable DNA levels in untreated blood donors: Viral mechanisms and transfusion safety implications

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Blood donor screening occasionally identifies individuals with high HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) levels despite undetectable or extremely low HBV DNA. Molecular basis and transfusion risk of this discordant profile remain unclear. Study Design and Methods Seventy‐five blood donors with HBsAg >100 IU/mL and undetectable or very low ...
