Pro‐Vitamin A Biofortified Cavendish Banana: Trait Stability in the Field

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3327-3344, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Vitamin A deficiency (VAD), a major global health concern, has driven efforts to develop staple crops with enhanced pro‐vitamin A (pVA) content. Delivering meaningful nutritional benefits, however, requires technologies that maintain elevated carotenoid levels under field conditions. Previous proof‐of‐concept work demonstrated that pVA content

The Wheat CRK‐RLCK‐MAPKs Signalling Module Confers High‐Temperature All‐Stage Resistance to Stripe Rust

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 2988-3008, May 2026.
ABSTRACT As global warming continues, rising temperatures significantly alter the interactions between wheat and the stripe rust pathogen Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst). Utilising high‐temperature all‐stage (HTAS) resistance to Pst is a novel strategy for breeding climate and disease resilient wheat cultivars.

Arbovirus suppression of a lectin protein-mediated broad-spectrum resistance enhances herbivorous vector performance and viral transmission

open access: yesNature Communications
Arboviruses often employ various strategies to manipulate the behavior of herbivorous vectors and host plants, thereby enhancing their transmission and infection. In this study, we identify a plant lectin protein, OsChtBL1, which possesses chitin-binding

WRKY Transcription Factors: Integral Regulators of Defence Responses to Biotic Stress in Crops

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 2939-2955, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Crops are continually challenged by biotic stresses, including fungal, bacterial and viral pathogens and insect pests, which cause substantial yield and quality losses worldwide. WRKY transcription factors constitute a plant‐specific and functionally diverse family that is central to immune regulation.

The MdICE1/MdFAMA‐MdTYDC Transcriptional Module Confers Cold Tolerance by Regulating Dopamine Metabolism in Apple

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3012-3031, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Low temperature is a critical abiotic stress that imposes major constraints on the sustainable development of the fruit tree industry. Although exogenous dopamine has been shown to enhance cold tolerance in plants, its molecular mechanisms in apple (Malus domestica) remain poorly understood.

OsVIRK1 functions with OsbZIP39 to fine-tune rice defense against rice stripe virus

open access: yesPlant Stress
Cysteine-rich receptor-like kinases (CRKs) play pivotal regulatory roles in the interactions between pathogens and plants. However, the underlying regulatory mechanisms are still not fully understood.
