ZmWRKY29 Transcriptionally Represses ZmRBOHC to Attenuate ROS Production and Facilitates Gibberella Stalk Rot Susceptibility in Maize

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gibberella stalk rot (GSR), caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum, severely threatens maize production. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying maize resistance to GSR remain poorly understood. Here, we have identified ZmWRKY29 as a transcriptional repressor induced by F.

LsMAPK6 Phosphorylates the LsCO Protein to Enhance Its Stability and Transcriptional Activity, Promoting Floral Transition Upon High Temperatures in Lettuce

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High temperatures significantly accelerate the timing of floral transition, namely, bolting and flowering, in lettuce, which results in severe loss of marketable yield. Thus, understanding the genetic regulation of floral transition is of great interest to plant biologists and lettuce breeders.

A Natural LTR Retrotransposon Insertion in the Promoter of GhNAC140‐Dt Boosts Cotton Lint Yield

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transposable elements (TEs) are fundamental drivers of crop evolution and domestication. Whereas the underlying mechanisms of TE‐mediated gene activation remain poorly understood. Lint percentage is an important yield component in cotton. Here, we report a retrotransposon insertion in the promoter of GhNAC140‐Dt, a secondary wall NAC encoding ...

The ZmCOP1s–ZmCOL3 Module Enhances Late Flowering, Grain Yield and Grain Quality in Maize

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flowering time is a key determinant of yield and regional adaptation in crops and is largely controlled by light signalling. In this study, we identified two maize orthologs of Arabidopsis CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC 1 (COP1), designated ZmCOP1a and ZmCOP1b, which activate light signalling and reduce plant height. Loss‐of‐function mutants of

Genomic and Transcriptomic Analyses Provide Insights Into Erysiphe necator Pathogenicity and Grapevine Response

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grapevine powdery mildew, caused by the fungus Erysiphe necator, is one of the most prevalent obligate biotrophic pathogens in vineyards, posing a significant threat to grape production. Despite its impact, research on E. necator pathogenicity and grapevine responses remains limited.

CitPH4 Confers Resistance to Citrus Canker by Activating Papain‐Like Cysteine Protease

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Citrus canker, a devastating disease caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc), poses a significant threat to global citrus production due to the high susceptibility of nearly all commercial citrus cultivars to it. Although transcription factor Citrus PH4 (CitPH4) is well known for regulating fruit acidity, its potential role in plant ...

Field Trials and Baking Studies of Ultra‐Low Asparagine, Genome Edited (CRISPR/Cas9) and Mutant (TILLING) Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Field trials were conducted of wheat (Triticum aestivum) cv. Cadenza in which asparagine synthetase gene, TaASN2, had been knocked out, either on its own or together with a partial knockout of the related gene, TaASN1, using CRISPR/Cas9. Chemical mutagenesis (TILLING) TaASN2 nulls in the Claire background were also included.

First Tetraploa Genome and Multi‐Omics Analysis Reveal Key Plant‐Microbe‐Soil Interactions for Salt Tolerance and Yield Improvement of Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salinity is a major threat to global agricultural productivity of staple crops such as wheat. Although microbial‐based solutions hold promise for alleviating salinity stress, practical implementation is hindered by insufficient mechanistic characterization of bioinoculants and their interactions with plants.

OsMYB306‐OsRAV11 Regulates Resistance of Rice to Striped Stem Borer by Modulating Serotonin Biosynthesis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Striped stem borer (SSB; Chilo suppressalis Walker) is one of the most destructive pests in rice production. Previous studies have demonstrated that SSB infestation induces transcription of OsT5H (tryptamine‐5‐hydroxylase) and biosynthesis of serotonin, a newly recognised phytohormone, and that disruption of serotonin biosynthesis ...
