The effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and Rhizophagus irregularis on soil microorganisms assessed by metatranscriptomics and metaproteomics

, 2019
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form symbioses with approximately 80% of plant species and potentially benefit their hosts (e.g. nutrient acquisition) and the soil environment (e.g. soil aggregation).

Foliar Application of Nano‐Selenium Enhances Tea Quality and Selenium Biofortification by Promoting Theanine Synthesis and Nitrogen Metabolism

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Selenium (Se) biofortification improves crops' nutritional value, while nano‐selenium (nano‐Se) offers enhanced bioavailability over traditional Se fertilisers. The quality of tea (Camellia sinensis) depends critically on nitrogen (N) metabolism and amino acid balance, particularly of theanine.

Reprogramming of Gene Transcripts and Metabolites by the Wild Soybean Endophyte Pseudomonas sp. 77S3 Improves Soybean Salt Tolerance

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soybean is a critical source of protein and vegetable oil worldwide. Expanding its cultivation into salinity lands represents a promising strategy for increasing production; however, soil salinity severely limits soybean growth by disrupting physiological and metabolic homeostasis.

Rooting Conifer Genetic Research: An Accessible and Efficient Transformation System

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conifers serve as the cornerstone of global forest ecosystems, yet their genetic transformation faces notorious challenges. To overcome the intrinsic resistance of conifer adventitious roots to Agrobacterium/Rhizobium‐mediated transformation, we systematically and iteratively engineered the binary vector by introducing chimeric Ri plasmid ...

OsbHLH064, an IVb bHLH Transcription Factor, Regulates Iron Homeostasis and Enhances Grain Fe Accumulation in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. The maintenance of Fe homeostasis relies on sophisticated regulatory networks where bHLH transcription factors play a key role. However, how these factors coordinate to regulate this vital process is not fully understood.
