Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.Summary Antifungal proteins (AFPs) derived from filamentous fungi show great potential against economically significant fungi that cause plant diseases and consequently threat food safety and security. This study focuses on the Penicillium expansum PeAfpA and Penicillium digitatum PdAfpB proteins and their activity against several phytopathogens.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.Summary Constitutive expression of hypersensitive cell‐death‐inducing effectors secreted by pathogens has proved to be difficult in plants. Herein, xylem‐specific promoters (PVND7 or PVND2) were utilized to express three cell‐death‐inducing proteins (FocSIX1A, FocSIX6 or TvSm1) of fungal origin in banana plants.

Non‐coding RNAs in plant stress responses: molecular insights and agricultural applications
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.Summary Non‐coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have emerged as crucial regulators in plant responses to environmental stress, orchestrating complex networks that finetune gene expression under both abiotic and biotic challenges. To elucidate this intricate ncRNA crosstalk, this review comprehensively summarizes recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of key ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.Summary Plants diseases cause substantial crop yield loss and threaten food security. Enhancing plant genetic resistance is a major strategy to mitigate the impact of plant diseases on agricultural production. The leucine‐rich repeat receptor‐like protein RXEG1 recognizes the glycoside hydrolase 12 (GH12) protein XEG1 secreted by Phytophthora sojae to ...
