An evaluation of the effects of over-production of ABA on whole plant water use, growth and productivity [PDF]

Predicted climate change and increasing global populations suggest that water will become an increasingly scarce and valuable commodity. Breeding plants which produce equivalent yields with reduced water input is therefore vital to sustain and ...

Nondefense functions of plant specialized metabolites: ecological phenomena, molecular mechanisms, and evolutionary implications

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Nonexhaustive overview of empirically validated nondefense functions caused by or correlated with variation in four well‐studied classes of plant specialized metabolites (PSMs) – glucosinolates (green text), alkaloids (blue text), terpenoids (yellow text), and flavonoids/polyphenols (purple text) – separated into different categories of nondefense ...

Modulation of innate stomatal defense response in plants by Salmonella enterica under gravistimulation

Bais, Harsh P.Spaceflight presents plants and microorganisms with the evolutionarily novel environment of microgravity. Plant responses to gravistimulation occur at the molecular and physiological level.

Coordination of drought‐adaptive root growth plasticity through auxin homeostasis by the ZmSPL12–ZmYUC5 module in maize

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Proposed model of ZmSPL12‐mediated drought resistance through auxin regulation. Summary Climate change‐induced drought increasingly threatens global maize production. Drought‐adaptive root plasticity in maize depends on auxin signaling, yet how auxin homeostasis is dynamically tuned in response to water deficit remains unclear.

Converging GWAS and Genome Editing Decrypts MsCBF8‐MsGolS2 Regulatory Module for Drought Tolerance Without Yield Penalty in Medicago sativa

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought constitutes a major abiotic stress limiting alfalfa productivity. To elucidate the genetic basis of drought tolerance, a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) was conducted in alfalfa, which identified a CBF/DREB1 family transcription factor designated MsCBF8.

Unravelling Mechanisms of Acquired Drought Tolerance by Priming in Tomato Using Integrative Multi‐Omics Phenotypic Analysis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The escalating frequency and intensity of recent droughts threaten global crop production and food security. Although drought priming is crucial for plant drought resilience, the mechanisms imparting drought stress memory remain poorly understood, especially in crops such as tomato. This study elucidates the mechanisms of drought stress memory

Improved Autotetraploid Induction Methods in Four Diploid Wild Peanut Species: Arachis duranensis, A. stenosperma, A. magna, and A. batizocoi

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L., 2n = 4x = 40, AABB) is an important legume crop worldwide. Wild peanuts (Arachis spp.) represent a valuable secondary gene pool with diverse disease resistances. However, most wild peanut species are diploid (2n = 2x = 20) and this ploidy barrier is a major obstacle to hybridization and gene introgression.

A trait-based integration of competition and abiotic tolerance underlies plant success. [PDF]

New Phytol
Competitive effect and abiotic tolerance show positive associations with species' niche breadth and local dominance. Summary Understanding what determines species' ecological success is a central challenge in ecology. Competitive ability and abiotic tolerance are expected to be strong predictors of species success, yet theory predicts a trade‐off ...

Evolutionary Conserved and Divergent Responses to Copper Zinc Superoxide Dismutase Inhibition in Plants

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT After an initial evolution in a reducing environment, life got successively challenged by reactive oxygen species (ROS), especially during the great oxidation event (GOE) that followed the development of photosynthesis. Therefore, ROS are deeply intertwined into the physiological, morphological and transcriptional responses of most present‐day

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...
