Rewiring Steroidal Metabolic Pathways for Diosgenin Production in Solanum nigrum

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diosgenin is a key starting material for the synthesis of steroidal drugs, such as corticosteroids and sex hormones. While the primary commercial source of diosgenin is the tubers of Dioscorea spp., identifying alternative plant hosts capable of diosgenin biosynthesis could enhance its production.

The C2H2‐GGAT Regulatory Module Fine‐Tunes Glutamate Homeostasis to Improve Fruit Flavour and Enhance Disease Resistance in Peach

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Free amino acids (FAAs) play a fundamental role in determining fruit quality and stress adaptation, yet their genetic regulation remains poorly understood. Through an integrated approach combining metabolomic and sensory analyses of 120 peach (Prunus persica) hybrids, we identified glutamate as a key metabolite linking FAA content to umami ...

CRISPR/Cas‐Mediated Gene Editing in Plant Immunity and Its Potential for the Future Development of Fungal, Oomycete, and Bacterial Pathogen‐Resistant Pulse Crops

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pulses provide myriad health benefits and are advantageous in an environmental context as a result of their leguminous nature. However, phytopathogenic fungi, oomycetes and bacteria pose a substantial threat to pulse production, at times leading to crop failure.

New Integrative Vectors Increase Agrobacterium rhizogenes Transformation and Help Characterise Roles for Soybean GmTML Gene Family Members

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hairy‐root transformation is widely used to generate transgenic plant roots for genetic functional characterisation studies. However, transformation efficiency can be limited, largely due to the use of binary vectors. Here, we report on the development of novel integrative vectors that significantly increase the transformation efficiency of ...

Soybean Inositol Polyphosphate 5‐Phosphatase 8 Confers Salt Tolerance by Reducing Sodium Influx Through Inositol 1,4,5‐Trisphosphate Signalling

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Evidence suggests that the metabolism of inositol and its derivatives may be involved in various biological processes including salt tolerance, but there has been limited understanding. Ectopic expression of Gs5PTase8, an inositol polyphosphate 5‐phosphatase cloned from wild soybean (Glycine soja), significantly enhanced salt tolerance in ...

‘Who is the Gael who Would Not Weep?’: The Book of the O’Conor Don, Fearghal Óg Mac an Bhaird, and Late Bardic Poetry of Exile

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how late bardic poetry transforms the condition of exile into a literary mode that reimagines community and tradition. I argue that poetry of lament, blessing and devotion articulates a broader literary consciousness that anticipates modern notions of a national consciousness. The compilation of bardic verse in manuscript
