Gene Editing of Nicotiana benthamiana Architecture for Space‐Efficient Production of Recombinant Proteins in Closed Environments

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 5600-5615, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Indoor vertical farming (VF) offers practical advantages for the cultivation of plant protein bio‐factories including plant uniformity, product consistency, water/nutrient recycling and production cycles on a year‐round basis. Much progress has been achieved toward the development of innovative systems for artificial lighting, automated ...

Comparative Genome‐Wide Association Studies of Metabolites and Grain‐Related Traits in Common Wheat

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 5911-5926, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The metabolome is highly diverse and the closest layer to phenotype; therefore, it is commonly regarded as a bridge between the genome and phenome in plants. Here, we performed large‐scale metabolome analysis using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) and 33 grain‐related traits in a diverse panel of natural accessions and

A Gain‐of‐Function Mutation in DELLA Selectively Alters Protein Interactions to Regulate Wheat Tiller Angle and Plant Height

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 6045-6064, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant architecture, especially plant height and tiller angle, plays a pivotal role in determining wheat yield. In this study, we characterize a wheat mutant termed prostrate and semidwarf 1 (prose1), exhibiting both a prostrate growth habit and semidwarfism.

Trichomes in Plant Defence, Development and Metabolic Integration Under Environmental Stress

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 8437-8453, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Among various plant defence strategies, trichomes are tiny hair‐like structures on the epidermis that aid in defence, environmental adaptation and the production of valuable secondary metabolites. This review features trichomes as frontline guards for plant survival, integrating their structural, physiological and metabolic roles in ...

Airborne Immunity: A Bacterial Volatile Primes Plant Defenses by Unlocking a Phytoalexin Biosynthetic Checkpoint

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 9070-9084, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbial volatile organic compounds (mVOCs) enable plants to perceive microbial activity prior to physical contact, yet the contribution of individual bacterial volatiles to immune signalling and disease resistance remains incompletely understood.

Northern Light Reviews – Photosynthesis‐Driven Redox Regulation Modulating ROS Levels and Physiological Responses

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
ABSTRACT Photosynthesis is the process through which photosynthetic organisms transform sunlight into organic carbon compounds. Beyond its role as a central metabolic pathway, photosynthetic electron transport can act as a sensitive environmental sensor.

DWARF14, A Receptor Covalently Linked with the Active Form of Strigolactones, Undergoes Strigolactone-Dependent Degradation in Rice

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Strigolactones (SLs) are the latest confirmed phytohormones that regulate shoot branching by inhibiting bud outgrowth in higher plants. Perception of SLs depends on a novel mechanism employing an enzyme-receptor DWARF14 (D14) that hydrolyzes SLs and ...

Adjustment of Root System Architecture and Root Function in Response to Multifactorial Abiotic Stress

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
ABSTRACT The root of land plants is a remarkably adaptive organ. Unlike the shoot with its main functions in light harvesting and photosynthesis, sexual reproduction and diaspore distribution, the root explores the soil for nutrient resources and water, while preferably avoiding zones of unfavorable conditions. Roots realize an extraordinarily flexible

ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZA – PARTNER IN COMMUNICATION

open access: yesActa Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2017
Arbuscular mycorrhiza is one of the most common type of mycorrhiza in plant kingdom. Process of plant root colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi is consisted of four phases: presymbiotic phase, phase of contact and hyphae penetration to the roots,
