Tripartite Interaction Between Penicillium pinophilum‐Host Plants and CMV‐Y: A Model for Endophyte‐Mediated Viral Biocontrol

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant‐fungus‐virus tripartite interactions represent complex ecological systems in which mutualistic endophytes can influence host physiology, yet the molecular basis of endophyte‐mediated defence remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that the endophytic fungus Penicillium pinophilum EU0013 suppresses the yellow strain of cucumber ...

Harnessing Natural Diversity and Rational Design for Enhanced Plant Immunity

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant pathogens cause crop loss. Genetic resistance, through natural genetic diversity or engineered resistance, can be highly effective in protecting plants from infection. Genetic resistance from wild relatives of crops has been successfully introduced into crops to control pathogen infection.

Occurrence of viruses on pepper plantations in the Czech Republic - Short communication

Horticultural Science, 2012
A survey of viruses on capsicum plants in the Czech Republic was carried out in the years 2006-2010. Altogether, 375 leaf samples with symptoms suggesting viral infection were collected both from open fields and greenhouses.

Effects of Atmospheric CO2 Levels on the Susceptibility of Maize to Diverse Pathogens

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rising atmospheric CO2 has significant implications for crop productivity and food security. Based on studies in C3 plants, elevated CO2 (eCO2) can shape plant‐pathogen interactions, although the outcomes are often variable. The question of how eCO2 influences immunity and disease development in C4 plants, such as the globally important cereal

MtGRF8 interacts with MtSymCRK and prevents early bacteroid death during Medicago – Sinorhizobium symbiosis

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2867-2887, September 2026.
MtSymCRK–MtGRF8‐14‐3‐3a, e, h and i functional model in R‐108 nodules. Summary In Medicago littoralis R‐108, Symbiotic CYSTEINE‐RICH RECEPTOR‐LIKE KINASE (MtSymCRK) is required to prevent defense reactions in symbiotic nodules during chronic infection.

NbRD21 protease controls receptor kinase homeostasis in Nicotiana benthamiana

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2741-2752, September 2026.
Proteomic analysis revealed that receptor kinases (red) accumulate higher in rd21 knockout Nicotiana benthamiana plants. Summary RD21‐like proteases are papain‐like cysteine proteases with a C‐terminal granulin domain that are abundant and ubiquitous in angiosperms and have often been implicated in immunity.

Writing Big in Plant Genomes: Advances, Challenges and Strategies for Targeted Large‐Fragment DNA Insertion

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6506-6520, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Precise genome editing has transformed plant biology and crop improvement by enabling targeted modification of endogenous loci. Beyond gene knockout and base editing, the site‐specific insertion of exogenous DNA, particularly large DNA fragments, has become a central goal for engineering complex traits, reconstructing metabolic pathways and ...

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.

Deep Mutational Scanning for the Study and Engineering of Protein Assemblies

Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.
This review explores how deep mutational scanning (DMS) can be used to improve understanding and accelerate engineering of protein assemblies, from natural fibers to engineered nanocages. We discuss various types of protein assemblies and their characterization, provide an introduction to the DMS technique, and then highlight examples in which DMS has ...

Expression of an extracellular ribonuclease gene increases resistance to Cucumber mosaic virus in tobacco

BMC Plant Biology, 2016
Background The apoplast plays an important role in plant defense against pathogens. Some extracellular PR-4 proteins possess ribonuclease activity and may directly inhibit the growth of pathogenic fungi.
