Remote Sensing of Endogenous Pigmentation by Inducible Synthetic Circuits in Grasses

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant synthetic biology holds great promise for engineering plants to meet future demands. Genetic circuits are being designed, built and tested in plants to demonstrate the proof of concept. However, developing these components in monocots, which the world relies on for grain, lags behind dicot models, such as Arabidopsis thaliana and ...

MT@SiO2 Enhances MEK5‐MAPK6‐NAC32 Mediated Salicylic Acid Synthesis Which Increases Resistance to Glomerella Leaf Spot in Apple

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glomerella leaf spot (GLS), a fungal disease caused by Colletotrichum fructicola, is a major destructive disease of apples but research on control measures is limited. Melatonin (MT) is a phytohormone‐like compound that affects plant growth and stress response but is prone to light‐induced degradation, resulting in low stability and efficacy ...

Structural Variations Contribute to Subspeciation and Yield Heterosis in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Yield heterosis has been extensively exploited in hybrid breeding, with intersubspecific hybrids often exhibiting the most pronounced effects. However, developing elite hybrids remains a laborious and time‐consuming process. The genetic basis of heterosis has been debated for over a century, hindered largely by the lack of high‐quality genomes.

‘Candidatus Liberibacter Asiaticus’ Effector SECP8 Subverts Salicylic Acid‐Mediated Citrus Immunity via a Two‐Pronged Impairment of CsTCP15 Dimerization

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), a devastating disease caused by the unculturable bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas), poses a severe threat to global citrus production. CLas secretes effectors to suppress host immune responses and facilitate its colonisation. Previously, the CLas effector SECP8 (CLIBASIA_05330) has been identified

Rare Natural SNP Activates SHOOT APICAL MERISTEM ENLARGER1 to Increase Branch Number and Silique Number on the Main Inflorescence in Brassica napus

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brassica napus is the second most important oil crop worldwide. Number of primary branches (Branch number, BN) and silique number on the main inflorescence (SMI) are key yield‐related quantitative traits. Here, we cloned a major QTL, qDB.A09, which simultaneously influences BN and SMI.

OsMYB99 Modulates Grain Wax Biosynthesis and Redox Homeostasis to Control Head Rice Yield and Chalkiness

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Head rice yield (HRY) is a crucial quality trait that determines the final commodity yield and commercial value of rice. Conversely, chalkiness represents an undesirable appearance characteristic, significantly impairing rice marketability. Thus, developing rice germplasms with superior HRY and appearance traits is highly desirable for rice ...

OsFeSOD3 Functions as an Enzymatic Component of the PEP Complex, Bifunctionally Regulating Chloroplastic ROS Metabolism and Chloroplast Biogenesis in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chloroplasts are essential organelles responsible for photosynthesis, providing energy and metabolic intermediates required for plant growth and productivity. Chloroplast development is highly sensitive to environmental stresses such as drought, and this sensitivity is closely associated with growth inhibition and yield reduction under stress ...

Genetic Mapping and Functional Characterisation of GhCUP Regulating Leaf Curling in Cotton

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Leaf size and shape are crucial traits affecting photosynthesis. Moderate leaf curling is believed to be beneficial to photosynthesis because upright leaves are ideal for building a canopy structure with reduced shaded areas to improve light penetration and ventilation.

A MaERF110‐MaMYB308 Transcriptional Module Negatively Regulates Lignin‐Mediated Defence Against Fusarium Wilt in Banana

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fusarium wilt of banana (FWB), caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), threatens global banana production. Lignin reinforces cell walls against pathogens and lodging, yet its regulatory mechanisms in banana remain elusive. Through genome‐wide association study (GWAS) of lignin content across 184 banana accessions, we identified ...
