A Century of Understanding and Harnessing Heterosis
ABSTRACT Heterosis has shaped modern plant breeding since Darwin's 19th century observations that outcrossing restores vigour lost through selfing. While 100 years old, its mechanistic basis and deployability remain actively debated. Classical models of dominance, overdominance and epistasis provided the foundation for hybrid breeding and converted ...

ABSTRACT Light is a primary environmental signal that induces plant anthocyanin accumulation. The plant growth regulator 5‐aminolevulinic acid (ALA) has also been proven to effectively promote anthocyanin accumulation in apple. However, the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain unknown.

ABSTRACT Plants frequently encounter multiple pathogens concurrently, yet the molecular bases of pathogen–pathogen interactions during mixed infections remain largely unresolved. Here we show that co‐infection of rice by Rice orange leaf phytoplasma (ROLP) and Rice stripe mosaic virus (RSMV) markedly suppresses RSMV proliferation in both host plants ...

ABSTRACT Plants maintain energy balance under salinity stress through increased respiration and energy use, processes also associated with reactive oxygen species generation. Although respiration imposes a high energy cost, mitochondrial respiration and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle activity are vital for ATP production and for providing electron ...

ABSTRACT Iron (Fe) homeostasis is regulated to prevent iron imbalance, with the help of redundant basic helix‐loop‐helix (bHLH) IVc transcription factors that can be controlled by Fe‐binding E3 ligases such as BRUTUS (BTS) in Arabidopsis thaliana.
