Plasmodesmata‐located proteins: The molecular hubs in noncell‐autonomous immunity

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Plasmodesmata serve as critical battlefields for plant immunity, regulated by diverse proteins. This article provides a comprehensive review of the regulatory mechanisms, challenges, and future directions concerning proteins located within plasmodesmata and their roles in plant defense responses.

Multi‐omics analyses shed lights on the evolution and fruit development of Chinese raspberries (Rubus spp.)

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
High‐quality genomes of four wild raspberry species, analysis of their genetic relationships, identification of centromeres as markers for tracing their hybrid origins, exploration of fruit quality regulation, and discovery of a gene blocking anthocyanin transport and thus causing yellow fruits provides valuable resources for raspberry breeding ...

Cloning and characterization of a novel UDP-glycosyltransferase gene induced by DON from wheat

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2015
Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused primarily by Fusarium graminearum, is a destructive disease of wheat throughout the world. However, the mechanisms of host resistance to FHB are still largely unclear. Deoxynivalenol (DON) produced by F.

Heterogeneity of iridoid biosynthesis in catmints: Molecular background in a phylogenetic context

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Evolutionary gains and losses of key biosynthetic genes likely resulting from multiple independent evolutionary events explain why certain Nepeta (catnip) species produce both the active, cat‐attracting nepetalactones and sugar‐bound iridoids, while others make only the sugar‐bound forms, and some have lost iridoid production entirely.

Substrate promiscuity catalyzed by an O-glycosyltransferase MrOGT2 from Metarhizium robertsii

Mycology
Glycosides tremendously extend the wide spectrum of biological activities of flavonoids and phenolics, which are catalysed by the glycosyltransferases (GTs) in diverse plants, bacteria, and fungi.

GeARF5/GeIAA33‐GeSWEET14 module balances the secondary metabolic biosynthesis to increase the yield and quality in Gastrodia elata

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Auxin signaling regulates the formation of vegetative propagation corms in Gastrodia elata by regulating sugar‐acid interconversion, which in turn regulates polysaccharide and starch biosynthesis as well as biosynthesis of the bioactive metabolite gastrodin.

Genome-Wide Analysis and Functional Characterization of the UDP-Glycosyltransferase Family in Grapes

Horticulturae, 2021
Grape (Vitis vinifera) produces a variety of secondary metabolites, which can enhance nutrients and flavor in fruit and wine. Uridine diphosphate-glycosyltransferases (UGTs) are primarily responsible for the availability of secondary metabolites by ...

Overexpression of a Tonoplast Malate Transporter Gene Leads to Enhanced Anthocyanin Biosynthesis in Apple

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anthocyanins, a group of secondary metabolites synthesised in the phenylpropanoid pathway, largely determine the peel colour of fleshy fruits, but it is not known if their synthesis is linked to vacuolar malate accumulation that underlies fruit acidity.

Rational design of a highly active N-glycosyltransferase mutant using fragment replacement approach

Engineering Microbiology
The modularity of carbohydrate-active enzymes facilitates that enzymes with different functions have similar fragments. However, because of the complex structure of the enzyme active sites and the epistatic effects of various mutations on enzyme activity,

Rice MGD1‐Mediated Improvement of Photosynthesis and Crop Yield by Flexible Adaptation to Different Light Conditions

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flexible adaptation to different light intensities found in natural environments is crucial for efficient photosynthesis and yield production in crops. The ability to cope with suboptimal light conditions effectively and efficiently is clearly advantageous.
