PME10 Is a Pectin Methylesterase Driving PME Activity and Immunity Against Botrytis cinerea in Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.)

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Botrytis cinerea (Bc) is a major pathogen of cultivated grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.), with cell wall (CW) remodelling playing a critical role in fungal colonisation. CW‐modifying enzymes, particularly pectin methylesterases (PMEs), produced by both host and pathogen, influence CW integrity and the outcome of infection.

Hybridization Drives Trait Integration in Telomere‐To‐Telomere Apocynum Genomes

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hybridization drives plant adaptation, yet its genomic mechanisms in non‐model perennials remain elusive. Apocynum species thrive in extreme saline‐alkaline environments. This study establishes A. pictum (APZ) as a homoploid hybrid of A. venetum (AVX) and A. hendersonii (AHG), exemplifying hybrid‐driven resilience.

Greater Resistance to Drought‐Induced Embolism Is Linked to Higher Yield Maintenance in Soybean

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With increasing drought events worldwide, crop breeding must focus on drought resistance to maintain crop yields. To ensure a high level of gas exchange and growth, plants need to maintain the integrity of their vascular system under drought conditions. While the impact of drought‐induced vascular damage on tree species is well‐documented, its

Argonaute1‐Dependent LtmilR2 Negatively Regulated Infection of Lasiodiplodia theobromae by Targeting a Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factor in RAS Signalling

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lasiodiplodia theobromae (L. theobromae) is the causative agent of grapevine canker disease, which is a serious threat to global grape production. Currently, no effective fungicides are available to manage this disease. In this study, LtmilR2 was identified as an Argonaute1 (AGO1)‐dependent small RNA produced by L. theobromae.
