The maize mitogen‐activated protein kinase kinase kinase gene ZmMAPKKK45 is associated with multiple disease resistance

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Southern leaf blight (SLB), caused by the necrotrophic fungus Cochliobolus heterostrophus, is a major foliar disease of maize (Zea mays) world‐wide. A genome‐wide association study was performed to dissect the genetic basis of SLB resistance in maize. Functional validation was performed using mutant and transgenic analyses.

Discrete and cell‐specific hypoxic responses in Arabidopsis roots resolved by single‐nuclei transcriptomics

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary With the intensification of unpredictable flooding events because of global warming, there is a need to understand how root cells perceive and respond to oxygen deprivation. The use of high‐throughput single‐nuclei RNA‐sequencing (snRNA‐Seq) allows the examination of gene expression profiles in discrete cell types.

Early signals of water limitations begin at the root–soil interface: linking rhizosphere drying to water uptake decline

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Understanding when and where drought stress originates in the soil–plant continuum is essential for predicting plant responses to climate change. While stomatal closure is a well‐known reaction to declining soil moisture, the precise hydraulic trigger remains unresolved.

Fruit respiration: putting alternative pathways into perspective

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Over the past century, research has significantly advanced our understanding of fruit respiration, from (eco)physiological processes to molecular mechanisms. This review focuses on the functional relevance and regulatory roles of mitochondrial alternative respiratory pathways (ARPs) during fruit growth and ripening.

Root tip excision‐induced exodermis lignification impacts lateral root emergence in Brachypodium distachyon

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary The mechanisms controlling lateral root emergence in monocots, particularly the role of the exodermis, are poorly understood. We investigated how natural variation in the Brachypodium distachyon stress response shapes root system architecture by modulating cell wall dynamics.
