Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biotic stresses, particularly Verticillium wilt (VW), lead to a global decline in cotton yields. Here, we demonstrate that ectopic expression of ScALDH21, a gene from the desiccation‐tolerant moss Syntrichia caninervis Mitt. and absent in angiosperms, enhances cotton's resistance to VW.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rice is the staple crop for more than half of the global population, and improving grain yield, grain quality, and stress resistance remain central goals of modern rice breeding. Among current precision breeding strategies, genome editing has created new opportunities for crop improvement, but its success depends heavily on the selection of ...

Soil-Borne Pathogens: Diagnosis and Control Strategies
Soil-borne diseases are one of the most persistent and harmful limitations to sustainable crop production across the world. These microorganisms, which include fungus, bacteria, nematodes, and oomycetes, live in the rhizosphere and infect plants via roots or lower stems, producing illnesses that result in significant yield and quality losses.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Mitochondria serve as cellular powerhouses that generate ATP via electron transport chain complexes and orchestrate metabolism‐apoptosis cross‐talk, yet genes maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis remain underexplored as antifungal targets. In this study, a previously uncharacterised protein VdAtuA3 was identified as a novel interactor with ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Roots emerging from seeds encounter substantial mechanical resistance during soil entry. A transient root cap cuticle (RCC) forms early in development, yet its contribution to root tip function during this mechanically challenging transition remains unclear.

Plant Biology, EarlyView.Benzamides boost crop resilience by inhibiting poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP) to enhance stress tolerance and, through their antimicrobial, herbicidal, and insecticidal derivatives, they offer broad protection for sustainable crop improvement. Abstract Benzamides have emerged as potent stress inhibitors and growth promoters in plant biotechnology ...

Plant Biology, EarlyView.Meloidogyne incognita impairs eggplant growth through gall formation with changes in root cell wall components and vascular tissue disruption, while the biocontrol agent Purpureocillium lilacinum mitigates these effects by reducing nematode infection. Abstract Meloidogyne spp. induce structural changes during the development of root‐knot galls, leading
