Functional Divergence of the Arg/N‐Degron Pathway Between the Crop Brassica rapa and the Model Plant Arabidopsis thaliana

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The ubiquitin‐dependent Arg/N‐degron pathway relates the stability of a substrate protein to the nature of its N‐terminal amino acid residue or its biochemical modifications, with some N‐terminal residues being recognized by specific E3 ubiquitin ligases, resulting in the ubiquitylation and degradation of the substrate protein.

Unique species interactions determine the decomposition activity of fungal communities

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 570-584, March 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fungal diversity plays a critical role in decomposition, a key process in carbon (C) cycling and ecosystem functioning. However, diversity–function relationships in microbial systems remain context‐dependent and challenging to predict.

Sspdhx Related to the Development and Virulence of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum Represents a Potential RNAi Target for Controlling Sclerotinia Disease

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
SsPDHX affects acetyl‐CoA and ATP metabolism and is required for normal growth, development, and pathogenicity of S. sclerotiorum. SIGS or HIGS targeting Sspdhx enhances host resistance to Sclerotinia disease. ABSTRACT Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a destructive pathogen with a broad host range, long‐term soil survival, and is difficult to control ...

Allelic Variation in Maize Malate Dehydrogenase 7 Shapes Promoter Methylation and Banded Leaf and Sheath Blight Resistance

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, 3 February 2026.
In this study maize chloroplastic malate dehydrogenase7 (ZmMDH7), is identified as a Rhizoctonia solani resistance gene in maize. ZmMDH7 is regulated by transcription factor ZmWRKY44 via pathogens challenge to elevate mitochondrial ROS and SA signaling pathway.

De novo analysis of Wolfiporia cocos transcriptome to reveal the differentially expressed carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) genes during the early stage of sclerotial growth

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The sclerotium of Wolfiporia cocos has been used as an edible mushroom and/or a traditional herbal medicine for centuries. W. cocos sclerotial formation is dependent on parasitism of the wood of Pinus species.
