A Plant‐Based Platform for the Production of Bark Beetle Pheromones
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Bark beetle species of the genera Ips and Dendroctonus represent a threat to forests in both North America and Europe. Under normal circumstances, these beetles recycle dying trees into nutrients, but under certain conditions, growing populations can overcome healthy tree defenses and cause severe economic loss in forestry.

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 ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT 7‐β‐xylosyl‐10‐deacetyltaxol (XDT) is much more abundant than the anticancer drug Taxol in Taxus species and is usually regarded as the by‐product of Taxol. It could be enzymatically transformed into 10‐deacetyltaxol (DT), and the latter could be further converted into Taxol.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Efficient purification remains a key technical challenge affecting the recovery efficiency of recombinant proteins in plant‐based systems. Complex metabolites, particularly polyphenols, often cause recombinant protein aggregation during purification.

Poplar miR1447 Is a Negative Regulator of Disease Resistance Through the SA‐Dependent Pathway
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Although microRNA1447 (miR1447) regulates poplar responses to abiotic stress and pest infestation, how miR1447 regulates poplar immunity against pathogens and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Here, we revealed that miR1447 functioned as a negative regulator of poplar disease resistance against fungal and bacterial ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sheath blight disease of rice caused by the fungal pathogen R. solani AG1‐IA remains a big threat to rice production worldwide. A limited genetic variation in rice for tolerance to this pathogen and little success in understanding how it defeats host defence are major reasons behind it.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hairy‐root transformation is widely used to generate transgenic plant roots for genetic functional characterisation studies. However, transformation efficiency can be limited, largely due to the use of binary vectors. Here, we report on the development of novel integrative vectors that significantly increase the transformation efficiency of ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Transient expression of exogenous protein in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves via agroinfiltration offers a rapid and efficient platform for functional gene discovery and heterologous production of valuable eukaryotic proteins and metabolites. Though light quality is an important factor for plant photomorphogenesis, its impact on the efficiency of
