Uncovering the role of the PPR protein PHOTOSYSTEM ONE BIOGENESIS FACTOR6 in splicing chloroplast group II introns

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The P‐class pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) protein PHOTOSYSTEM ONE BIOGENESIS FACTOR (PBF6) forms splicing complexes with other known splicing factors to facilitate chloroplast intron splicing. PBF6 cooperates with other PPR splicing factors to promote the splicing of the same intron through forming respective splicing complexes.

A cytochrome P450 gene, GmSUR2a, confers submergence tolerance and improves yield in soybean by modulating auxin homeostasis

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The key cytochrome P450 gene GmSUR2a enables soybeans to withstand destructive submergence stress. By lowering the level of the plant hormone indole‐3‐acetic acid, this gene improves soybean survival and increases field yield. It offers an important tool for breeding stress‑resilient soybeans, securing food production against extreme weather conditions.

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

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 ...

Dodder seedlings benefit from apoplastic nutrition by inducing SWEET15‐mediated unloading of sucrose from the host's phloem

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Cuscuta reflexa infection sites. Summary Cuscuta species are holoparasitic plants that penetrate host stems with haustoria, connect to the vasculature and exhaust water, nutrients and carbohydrates. Parasite seedlings possess only limited maternal reserves and the development of a vascular connection takes several days.

Cost-effectiveness of dietary supplement ingredients versus generic statins for LDL reduction

open access: yesExploratory Research in Clinical and Social Pharmacy
Background: While statin therapy is the preferred treatment for hyperlipidemia, literature supports the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) lowering effects associated with red yeast rice, berberine, and Silybum marianum.
