Summary Carotenoids and apocarotenoids are widespread specialized metabolites, yet animals, including sponges, lack the ability to synthesize carotenoids de novo and must obtain them from dietary or microbial sources. The roles of carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) in marine animals remain largely unexplored. A CCD from the marine sponge Suberites

Guard cell photorespiration controls stomata behavior and development
Summary Photorespiration is traditionally viewed as a limitation to photosynthetic efficiency. However, it is mandatory for safeguarding the Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle from inhibitory byproducts through Rubisco‐mediated oxidative misfire and is tightly integrated with primary metabolism.

Summary Plant resistance influences the host range of pathogens; however, the mechanism driving this influence remains poorly understood. Brassicaceae species are not natural hosts of potexviruses, for reasons that have not yet been determined. This study investigated the molecular basis of nonhost resistance (NHR) to potexviruses in the Brassicaceae ...

Tomato plants control leaf sodium levels to limit damage by Spodoptera littoralis larvae
Summary Sodium is an essential element for animal growth and survival. Here we test the hypothesis that plants exposed to insect feeding can translocate sodium from the feeding site to other plant organs as a defense strategy against phytophagous insects, which need sodium in their diet.

Potassium Deficiency and Hormone Signalling in Plants
ABSTRACT Potassium (K or K⁺) is a vital macronutrient that influences numerous physiological processes related to plant physiology and development. Recently, there is a growing focus on enhancing K+‐use efficiency (KUE) to ensure optimal plant growth, especially in K+ deficient soils.
