The Cytosolic Iron–Sulfur Cluster Assembly Targeting Complex Is Hijacked by Magnaporthe Effector AvrPi9 to Suppress Rice Resistance

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The cytosolic iron–sulfur (Fe‐S) cluster assembly (CIA) targeting complex mediates the maturation of cytosolic and nuclear Fe‐S proteins and governs core eukaryotic cellular processes. However, whether this complex contributes to plant disease resistance remains unclear.

Hierarchical Regulatory Module AcERF1–AcHAT5–AcERF10 Modulates Ethylene‐Dependent Starch Degradation in Postharvest Kiwifruit

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transcriptional regulatory network underlying ethylene‐governed starch‐to‐sugar conversion remains poorly understood. We elucidated the hierarchical regulatory cascade linking ethylene signalling to starch degradation in postharvest kiwifruit.

Mechanisms underlying epigenetic gene silencing in maize [PDF]

Higher organisms can regulate gene expression through changes in epigenetic marks present on the genome. However, how this regulation takes place in organisms with highly repetitive/complex genomes is not well understood.

Leaf Structure and Hormonal Balance Modulate Host‐Specificity and Pathogenicity of Botrytis cinerea

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Botrytis cinerea, a highly successful necrotrophic fungal plant pathogen, demonstrates a remarkably broad host range, yet the precise factors governing its host specificity and its ability to coexist non‐pathogenically with plants remain unclear. This study systematically assessed host preference in a series of B. cinerea agricultural isolates,

Screening Various Bacterial-Produced Double-Stranded RNAs for Managing Asian Soybean Rust Disease Caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi

Plants
Asian soybean rust (ASR), caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi (Syd.), poses a serious threat to global soybean production. The main approach to managing this disease has been through repeated fungicide applications which have reduced efficacy due to ...

Nitroalkylation Mediated by Nitro‐Fatty Acids Is Involved in Key Physiological Processes During Arabidopsis thaliana Development

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nitro‐fatty acids (NO2‐FAs) are potent electrophiles that react with nucleophilic residues in proteins (cysteines, histidines and lysines) via a process known as nitroalkylation. This reversible post‐translational modification (PTM) functions as a selective signalling mechanism by modulating the structure, transport, and catalysis of target ...

BvCaM7 Participates in Sugar Beet (Beta vulgaris L.) Resistance to CLS (Cercospora Leaf Spot) by Activating BvPAL via BvMYB108 and Is Accompanied by Calcium Dynamics

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT CLS (Cercospora leaf spot) is a major constraint in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) cultivation, yet the functions of CaM/CML family members in CLS resistance are unclear. This study identified the CaM/CML family in sugar beet and focused on BvCaM7, which was significantly upregulated under CLS. Calcium measurements revealed differential calcium

Understanding exosomes in diabetic wound healing

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Diabetic wounds signify a major complication of diabetes mellitus, characterized by chronic inflammation, compromised angiogenesis, and high risk of infection, amputation, and mortality. Contemporary therapies remain limited in efficacy and durability.

Gene silencing and applications for functional gene validation: the case of geminiviruses [PDF]

, 2011
Plants are able to recognize and degrade double-strand RNA molecules employing the mechanism of post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS). PTGS is both a vegetal defense strategy against viral infections and a conserved eukaryotic mechanism for regulate

Ambition without alignment: Pollinators in the EU Nature Restoration Law

Review of European, Comparative &International Environmental Law, EarlyView.
Abstract Pollinators are essential for life on Earth. They enable the reproduction of most flowering plants and support biodiversity as well as food systems. However, their numbers are in great decline. Research finds a continuing decrease in pollinating insects each year. This article reviews whether EU Law is fit to address this challenge.
