Subcellular Localization of Iron in Rhizophora mangle Leaves Revealed by Integrated Perls Reaction, TEM, STEM‐HAADF, and EDS Analyses

open access: yesMicroscopy Research and Technique, EarlyView.
Perls–TEM–STEM‐HAADF–EDS enables high‐resolution localization and elemental characterization of Fe‐containing deposits in Rhizophora mangle leaf cells. ABSTRACT Mangrove ecosystems are frequently exposed to high concentrations of iron (Fe) in sediments, resulting in Fe accumulation in plant tissues. Although Fe is an essential micronutrient involved in

Progress on studies for seedless breeding of citrus in Japan

open access: yesAdvances in Horticultural Science, 2014
Seedlessness is a desirable characteristic for both fresh and processed citrus markets and one of the most important breeding objectives. In this paper, progress on studies for seedless breeding of citrus in Japan is reviewed.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

A Rapid Lithium Ion‐Based Transformation Method for Kluyveromyces lactis

open access: yesYeast, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Kluyveromyces lactis is a budding yeast host useful for recombinant protein production; however, its transformation often relies on electroporation due to the perceived low efficiency of chemical methods, thereby limiting throughput. In this study, we developed a robust, small‐scale chemical transformation protocol (using 15 μL of competent ...

Construction of whole genome radiation hybrid panels and map of chromosome 5A of wheat using asymmetric somatic hybridization. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
To explore the feasibility of constructing a whole genome radiation hybrid (WGRH) map in plant species with large genomes, asymmetric somatic hybridization between wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and Bupleurum scorzonerifolium Willd. was performed.

ZmMS1 coordinates ROS homeostasis, lipid allocation, and male fertility for maize breeding applications

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The redox‐sensitive transcriptional repressor ZmMS1 coordinates reactive oxygen species homeostasis and lipid allocation for pollen exine and anther cuticle formation. Loss or precocious expression of ZmMS1 causes male sterility. Constitutive overexpression induces dwarfism and semi‐sterility. These findings enable flexible maize male‐sterility systems

Early selection of carrot somatic hybrids: a promising tool for species with high regenerative ability

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2023
Background Since its discovery, somatic hybridization has been used to overcome the sexual barriers between cultivated and wild species. A combination of two somatic cells might provide a novel set of features, often of agronomical importance.

Natural variation in the promoter of OsPDX1.2 enhances vitamin B6 accumulation and cold tolerance in rice

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Allelic variation in the promoter of the pyridoxal phosphate synthase OsPDX1.2 caused variation in the ACE‐box cis‐elements, resulting in differing OsPDX1.2 expression due to differences in binding affinity between the OsbZIP18 transcriptipn factor and the ACE‐box, contributing to variation in vitamin B6 levels and cold tolerance among rice varieties ...

CP32, a novel anti‐oomycete cyclic peptide, interferes with cell‐wall deposition in Phytophthora infestans

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The small cyclic peptide CP32 effectively inhibits Phytophthora infestans, the causal agent of potato and tomato late blight. Combined biochemical and phenotypic analyses demonstrate that CP32 disrupts cell wall biosynthesis, a key process in pathogen infection, resulting in a marked reduction of disease symptoms in plants.
