Geminivirus C2 protein represses genes involved in sulphur assimilation and this effect can be counteracted by jasmonate treatment [PDF]
, 2012 Geminiviruses are plant viruses that infect a broad range of crops and cause extensive losses worldwide, having an important economic impact. C2, a multifunctional pathogenicity factor encoded by geminiviruses, has been recently shown to suppress the ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Anthocyanins are plant pigments that contribute to fruit coloration and nutritional quality, yet the coordinated regulation of their accumulation in both peel and flesh remains elusive. Here, we present a haplotype‐resolved genome of Malus cv. ‘Royalty’, a model cultivar with consistently red peel and flesh. A zinc‐finger transcription factor,

Plant Physiology, 2012 Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) forms dense cytoplasmic bodies containing replication-associated proteins (virus replication complexes [VRCs]) upon infection. To identify host proteins that interact with individual viral components of VRCs or VRCs in toto, we

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oomycete pathogens secrete hundreds of RXLR effectors into plant cells to modulate host immunity by targeting diverse plant proteins. Here, we report that the Peronophythora litchii RXLR effector PlAvh133 acts as a virulence factor and targets the litchi glycolate oxidase (GLO) LcGLO1, a key enzyme in photorespiration, thereby suppressing ...

Production of Platinum Atom Nanoclusters at One End of Helical Plant Viruses
Advances in Virology, 2013 Platinum atom clusters (Pt nanoparticles, Pt-NPs) were produced selectively at one end of helical plant viruses, tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and potato virus X (PVX), when platinum coordinate compounds were reduced chemically by borohydrides.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant viruses are so harmful to crops. It is an urgent need to develop modern, environment‐friendly, and sustainable plant viral epidemic‐management strategies that are safe for both human health and the environment. The field of nanotechnology is gaining increased interest in plant science.

An α/β‐Hydrolase GmABHD6 Controls Seed Oil Content and Yield in Soybean
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Seed oil content is a key trait in soybean, yet its genetic basis remains largely unresolved. Here, we identify GmABHD6, an α/β‐hydrolase domain‐containing gene, as the causal gene underlying a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) for seed oil content on chromosome 16.
