Chloroplast Fibrillin‐Mediated α‐Tocopherol Biosynthesis Impaired by a Virus to Enhance Infection and to Improve Drought Tolerance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ToCV‐encoded p22 targets chloroplast plastoglobules (PGs) via directly binding PG structural protein FBN1.1, reducing the size of PG and inhibiting α‐tocopherol biosynthesis via competing with tocopherol cyclase (VTE1). Consequently, the elevated chloroplast ROS not only creates a suitable cellular environment for efficient ToCV infection but also ...

Ratoon Season Rice Reduces Methane Emissions by Limiting Acetic Acid Transport to the Rhizosphere and Inhibiting Methanogens

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study finds that the interaction between ABA‐OsCIPK2‐OsSWEET1A reduces the allocation of methane producing bacteria carbon source (acetic acid) content to the rhizosphere soil of ratoon season rice, thereby reducing methane emissions. Abstract Rice paddies are a major, persistent source of atmospheric methane (CH4), emission rates depend on the ...
