ZmWRKY29 Transcriptionally Represses ZmRBOHC to Attenuate ROS Production and Facilitates Gibberella Stalk Rot Susceptibility in Maize

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gibberella stalk rot (GSR), caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum, severely threatens maize production. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying maize resistance to GSR remain poorly understood. Here, we have identified ZmWRKY29 as a transcriptional repressor induced by F.

A Bioluminescent Reporter System for Real‐Time Monitoring of the Unfolded Protein Response in Plants

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The unfolded protein response (UPR) is a critical mechanism for maintaining endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis under stress. Here, we developed a bioluminescent reporter system, AtbZIP60‐LUC, in Arabidopsis to dynamically monitor ER stress by coupling IRE1‐mediated splicing of bZIP60 mRNA to firefly luciferase (LUC) expression.

Disruption of Asparagine Synthetase Is Associated to Increased Biomass in Lotus japonicus

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Asparagine (Asn) constitutes the major form of nitrogen translocated within Lotus japonicus plants. In this work we use knock‐out (KO) LORE1 mutants‐deficient in the asparagine synthetase gene (LjASN1), which is the most highly expressed ASN gene in plants grown under non‐symbiotic (NS) conditions, but much less expressed under symbiotic (S ...

Three Decades of China's Bt Cotton: Achievements and Insights

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cotton is a vital natural fibre crop with significant economic value worldwide. In response to the threat of cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera), the China government initiated a research project in 1992 to develop transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton.

Genomic and Transcriptomic Analyses Provide Insights Into Erysiphe necator Pathogenicity and Grapevine Response

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grapevine powdery mildew, caused by the fungus Erysiphe necator, is one of the most prevalent obligate biotrophic pathogens in vineyards, posing a significant threat to grape production. Despite its impact, research on E. necator pathogenicity and grapevine responses remains limited.

CitPH4 Confers Resistance to Citrus Canker by Activating Papain‐Like Cysteine Protease

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Citrus canker, a devastating disease caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc), poses a significant threat to global citrus production due to the high susceptibility of nearly all commercial citrus cultivars to it. Although transcription factor Citrus PH4 (CitPH4) is well known for regulating fruit acidity, its potential role in plant ...
