Coupling of both a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain boosts Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine editing in plants

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Fusions of a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain produced effective Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine base editors, with improved C‐to‐T and A‐to‐G base editing efficiency and expanded editing window. Generated herbicide‐resistant rice germplasm by using these base editors demonstrates their potential for precise ...

Enhancing species discovery and description in algal turfs: A case study in the green alga Pseudoderbesia (Bryopsidales)

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Algal turfs are assemblages consisting of small marine green, brown, and red algae on the scale of millimeters to a few centimeters. Due to their small size, they have been less intensively studied by macroalgal taxonomists, and they also fall outside the scope of microalgal taxonomists, who tend to focus on smaller, often unicellular, taxa ...

Filter feeders living on suspension feeders: New insights into the lifestyle and distribution of Arcturidae Dana, 1849 (Crustacea: Isopoda) around Iceland

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract The focus of the present study was on arcturid isopods occurring in the subarctic region around Iceland. Data from two decades of sampling with an epibenthic sledge (EBS) during numerous expeditions of the BIOICE (Benthic Invertebrates of Icelandic Waters; 1992–2004) and IceAGE (Icelandic marine Animals: Genetics and Ecology; 2011—ongoing ...

Expanded Functional Characterization and Optimization of Protein Expression in Treponema denticola Shuttle Plasmids

open access: yesMolecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
We report optimization of the Treponema denticola shuttle plasmid system by minimizing its size and by characterizing an array of promoter‐gene constructs for genetic complementation, including the first use in Treponema of a Tet‐inducible system for controlled expression of potentially toxic genes.

MsWRKY49 Modulates Pollen Tube Elongation in Response to Boron Deficiency by Regulating Reactive Oxygen Species Homeostasis in Alfalfa

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Boron, an essential micronutrient, plays a crucial role in plant reproductive processes. Boron deficiency is widespread in many regions and significantly reduces alfalfa (Medicago sativa) seed yield, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying its impact on reproductive organ development remain elusive.

Rosmarinic Acid Synthase 1 Phosphorylation by SmMAPK3 Is Required for Salicylic Acid‐Induced Salvianolic Acid Accumulation in Salvia miltiorrhiza Hairy Roots

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salvianolic acid is the main active component of Salvia miltiorrhiza and holds significant value in the clinical treatment of myocardial ischemia and hypoxia. Previous studies have shown that salicylic acid (SA) can significantly promote the accumulation of salvianolic acid, but its molecular mechanism remains incompletely understood.

TaSPX3 Enhances Wheat Resistance to Leaf Rust by Antagonising TaDi19‐Mediated Repression of Pathogenesis‐Related Genes

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wheat leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina (Pt), threatens global wheat production, with yield losses further exacerbated by the pathogen's evolving virulence. Although Syg1/Pho81/Xpr1 (SPX) domain‐containing proteins are known regulators of phosphate homeostasis, their involvement in plant–pathogen interactions remains largely unexplored ...

Artificial Mutations in the Nuclear Gene Encoding Mitochondrial RNA Polymerase Restore Pollen Fertility in Cytoplasmic Male Sterile Tomato

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) and restorer of fertility (Rf) are important traits in F1 hybrid breeding. However, the CMS/Rf system has not been used in tomatoes because of the limited resources of Rf lines. In this study, we performed mutagenesis in tomato CMS seeds and successfully obtained 13 suppressor mutants with pollen fertility ...

Moderate Regulation of SBEIIb Gene Expression by Editing Cis‐Regulatory Elements Enhances the Resistant Starch Content in Rice

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As the staple food of over half the world's population, rice with a high resistant starch (RS) content may be beneficial in the dietary prevention of diabetes and hyperlipidemia. Mutating key enzymes in starch metabolism to increase the RS content has been successful in other crops.
