Beyond Starch: Towards a Scalable Potato Platform for Molecular Farming
Re‐engineering potato as a biosafe and host‐optimised platform for plant molecular farming by integrating intrinsic biological traits with targeted engineering strategies. ABSTRACT Thirty‐five years after the first recombinant protein was produced in potato and 30 years after clinical trials of edible vaccines from its tubers, the crop is being ...

ABSTRACT Plant viruses frequently cause severe economic losses in worldwide crop production. Developing broad‐spectrum resistance is the most efficient approach for controlling plant viral diseases. In this work, we found that the 17K protein of barley yellow dwarf viruses (BYDVs), which has multiple functions in viral pathogenesis including acting as ...

ABSTRACT Genomic selection (GS) is critical for accelerating genetic gain in modern plant breeding. Deep learning approaches offer powerful non‐linear representation capabilities for modelling non‐additive effects. However, their application in GS remains restricted, as high‐dimensional, low‐sample and noisy data hinder the identification of ...

MdRLKT1–MdRAX2–MdMKS1 Module Positively Regulating Resistance to Cytospora mali in Apple
ABSTRACT Valsa canker (caused by Cytospora mali = Valsa mali. C. mali) is one of the most destructive diseases affecting apple cultivation. The scarcity of natural germplasm resources with high resistance and immunity underscores the importance of exploring plant immune regulation factors of disease‐resistant breeding.

ABSTRACT Sugar content is a key determinant of fruit quality, and sugars also act as signalling molecules that regulate ripening processes, including anthocyanin accumulation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying sugar accumulation and sugar signal‐mediated ripening remain incompletely understood.

Mechanical Strength: An Unrecognised Target in the Genetic Improvement of Crops
ABSTRACT Leaf angle (LA) is a crucial agronomic trait influencing planting density and crop yield. Previous research highlighted the importance of cellular variations in the ligular region for determining LA, but the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain unclear.

ABSTRACT Gibberella stalk rot (GSR), caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum, severely threatens maize production. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying maize resistance to GSR remain poorly understood. Here, we have identified ZmWRKY29 as a transcriptional repressor induced by F.

The Transcription Factor OsWRKY64 Interacts With OsART1 to Positively Regulate Al Resistance in Rice
A proposed working model illustrating the cooperative regulation of Al tolerance by OsWRKY64 and OsART1 in rice. Under Al stress conditions in acidic soil, the transcription factor OsART1 directly binds to the promoter of OsWRKY64 to activate its transcription. The synthesized OsWRKY64 protein then physically interacts with OsART1 in the nucleus.

The ZmCOP1s–ZmCOL3 Module Enhances Late Flowering, Grain Yield and Grain Quality in Maize
ABSTRACT Flowering time is a key determinant of yield and regional adaptation in crops and is largely controlled by light signalling. In this study, we identified two maize orthologs of Arabidopsis CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC 1 (COP1), designated ZmCOP1a and ZmCOP1b, which activate light signalling and reduce plant height. Loss‐of‐function mutants of
