PPSR1 Protein Functions as an Important Regulator to Enhance Plant Growth Performance Under N, P, and K Deficient Stress Conditions

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2385-2404, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Phosphorus (P) is an essential macronutrient for various biological processes in plant growth. Modern agricultural science has advanced the knowledge of regulatory mechanisms underlying phosphorus starvation responses (PSRs), aiming to develop phosphate‐efficient crops with sustainable production under reduced Pi fertilizer application ...

Effect of grafting time and technique on the success rate of grafted Mango (Mangifera indica L.) in Kalu District of Amhara Region, North Eastern Ethiopia

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture, 2019
Vegetative propagation through grafting is the recommended method for most fruit crops including mango. It involves the joining of scion and rootstock where the rootstock develops into the root system while the scion develops the upper fruiting part of ...

Grapevine scion gene expression is driven by rootstock and environment interaction

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background Grafting is a horticultural practice used widely across woody perennial crop species to fuse together the root and shoot system of two distinct genotypes, the rootstock and the scion, combining beneficial traits from both.

A Bacterial Effector Hijacks NBR1 to Modulate Both Autophagy and Ubiquitination‐Mediated Degradation That Promotes Bacterial Infection

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2492-2509, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Autophagy and the ubiquitin/26S proteasome system (UPS) play critical roles in the immune defence of the host against pathogen invasion. As a countermeasure, pathogens deploy effector proteins to subvert or hijack autophagy and UPS processes.

Assessment of Apple Blotch (Diplocarpon coronariae) Symptom Progression on Malus × domestica Leaves

open access: yesPlant Breeding, Volume 145, Issue 2, Page 326-338, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Apple blotch is a fungal disease of increasing importance in European apple cultivation. Infection by Diplocarpon coronariae leads to premature leaf abscission in summer, weakening tree vigour and exacerbating harvest losses. Developing resistant cultivars represents a promising preventive strategy.

Photosynthetic activity in avocado leaf ontogeny as a result of compatibility rootstock/scion in three locations in Colombia [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Ceres
In Colombia, the evidence of rootstock/scion incompatibility in avocado cv. Hass graft union has been increasing, generating concern among farmers. The objective was to evaluate the photosynthetic response of the avocado trees due to rootstock/scion ...

The rootstock clones in rubber tree: a new varietal type toward the rejuvenated bi-clone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Cloning rubber rootstocks by microcutting will remove the genetic variability of the seedling rootstocks; Moreover, it will open the way to the breeding of rootstock clones regarding main challenges as the growth-vigor of the trees, the water stress ...

Organic Orchard Floor Management Systems for Apple Effect on Rootstock Performance in the Midwestern United States [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In organic apple production systems, orchard floor management is of prime importance because it determines weed management and soil fertility. In this experiment, we evaluated the response of the cultivar Pacific Gala on three rootstocks of different ...

A Systematic Approach to Field Testing of Biological Products for Horticulture Is Required to Improve Food Security

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Food security challenges require immediate action to increase food production. Many biological products derived from plant, animal or microbial sources claim they sustainably increase yield, but there are concerns about biosecurity to be investigated before their introduction to the field.
