WRKY27‐RAP2.7 Regulatory Module Promotes Cold Tolerance via Modulation of Lignin Biosynthesis and Redox Homeostasis by Regulating Cinnamyl Alcohol Dehydrogenase 7 and Glutathione S‐Transferase F6

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cold stress adversely affects plant growth and development, significantly limiting fruit yield and quality in citrus. Ichang papeda (Citrus ichangensis), a cold‐tolerant citrus species, serves as a valuable genetic resource for studying cold adaptation, yet the key genes and their modes of action underlying the cold stress response remain ...

TaRIP2 Positively Regulates Wheat Pollen Wall Formation Through MYB80‐Controlled Lipid Metabolism

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Male‐sterile genes and mutants are critical for hybrid seed production in monocotyledonous crops. Lipids are essential structural components of male reproductive organs, such as the anther and pollen. Here, we show that the pollen‐preferential gene TaRIP2 is essential for wheat anther development and pollen formation. RT‐qPCR analysis revealed

Heat–moisture treatment of rice grains affects starch digestibility and quality of low-gluten cookies made from blended wheat flour and treated rice flours

Applied Food Research
Heat–moisture treatment (HMT) of both rice starch and flour significantly improved resistant starch content, depending on their amylose contents and treatment conditions.

SBP‐Box Transcription Factor JcSPL9 Regulates Both Seed Yield and Oil Content in the Biofuel Plant Jatropha curcas

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Jatropha curcas is a promising feedstock for biodiesel and bio‐jet fuels production; however, its seed yield is constrained by limited inflorescences. SPL9 is a member of the SBP‐box gene family that promotes the juvenile‐to‐adult phase transition.

A Fusarium sacchari Glycoside Hydrolase 12 Protein FsEG1 Is a Major Virulence Factor During Sugarcane Infection and Confers Resistance to Pokkah Boeng Disease via the HIGS Strategy

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pokkah Boeng disease (PBD), caused by Fusarium sacchari, has severely impacted the yield and quality of sugarcane, resulting in significant economic losses. However, the molecular interaction mechanisms between F. sacchari and sugarcane remain poorly understood.

The BAHD Acyltransferase Gene Family: Evolutionary Dynamics, Biochemical Mechanisms, and Roles in Plant Stress Adaptation

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
BAHD acyltransferases drive metabolic diversification in plants by coupling conserved catalytic scaffolds with regulatory flexibility, enabling stress adaptation and ecological specialisation. ABSTRACT BAHD acyltransferases constitute one of the most versatile enzyme superfamilies in plants, catalysing the acylation of alcohols, amines, polyamines, and

Cross‐Species Reprogramming of Developmental Plasticity and Metabolic Rewiring via Banana‐Derived WUS2 Developmental Regulator

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant regeneration is governed by intrinsic gene regulation and phytohormonal cues. WUSCHEL (WUS) gene promotes regeneration, but its broader functional role remains unexplored. Here, we demonstrate that the constitutive and inducible expression of banana‐derived WUS2 (GN‐WUS2) enhances regeneration in Nicotiana tabacum (tobacco) and Musa ...

Mechanical Strength: An Unrecognised Target in the Genetic Improvement of Crops

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
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.

Three Decades of China's Bt Cotton: Achievements and Insights

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cotton is a vital natural fibre crop with significant economic value worldwide. In response to the threat of cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera), the China government initiated a research project in 1992 to develop transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton.
