CsYABBY1 and CsMYB114 Enhance Acquired Drought Tolerance by Mediating Flavonoid Biosynthesis in Camellia sinensis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1285-1304, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Drought priming is a critical agronomic strategy for enhancing plant drought tolerance, yet the optimal priming intensity and transcriptional regulatory mechanisms underlying subsequent drought responses in the tea plant (Camellia sinensis) remain poorly characterised.

Elucidating the Genetic Basis of Columnar Upright Architecture in Populus Through CRISPR Disruption of TILLER ANGLE CONTROL1

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1377-1397, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Narrow or upright branch angles in shoots and leaves lead to columnar, upright‐growing tree architectures, as observed in various tree species such as Lombardy poplar (Populus nigra var. italica). However, the genetic mechanism underlying this unique growth habit in Lombardy poplar has not yet been elucidated.

Jasmonate‐Activated AaWRKY9–AabHLH93/AabHLH93–AaMYB7 Complexes Balance Artemisinin Biosynthesis in Artemisia annua

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1533-1547, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Artemisinin, an antimalarial sesquiterpene lactone, is biosynthesized in glandular trichomes of Artemisia annua. Although numerous transcription factors have been demonstrated to regulate artemisinin biosynthesis, the molecular mechanisms underlying the high expression of artemisinin‐associated biosynthetic enzyme and transcription factor ...

Improved Longan Genome Assembly Reveals Insights Into Flowering Mechanisms

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1678-1696, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Longan is an exotic tropical fruit crop and exhibits off‐season flowering induced by potassium chlorate (KClO3), though the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. We assembled a high‐quality, 441.5 Mb genome of variety ‘Shixia’, with a contig N50 at 28.1 Mb, 29, 325 protein‐coding genes, 26 telomeres and 15 centromeres.

Ethylene Response of Plum ACC Synthase 1 (ACS1) Promoter is Mediated through the Binding Site of Abscisic Acid Insensitive 5 (ABI5). [PDF]

, 2019
The enzyme 1-amino-cyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase (ACS) participates in the ethylene biosynthesis pathways and it is tightly regulated transcriptionally and post-translationally.

Single Cell Multiomics of Hooked Potato Stolons Reveals Parallels to Shoot Apical Meristems in Arabidopsis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1822-1838, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Solanum tuberosum L. (potato) is a key food crop, with its tubers serving as an important food source worldwide. Tuber development is a tightly regulated process involving the transition of a hooked stolon (a modified stem) to a tuber following the perception of mobile signals within the stolon tip. While genes like FLOWERING LOCUS T homologue

A Volatile Cue From a Specialist Herbivore Primes Gene Expression Against Biotic Stress in Tall Goldenrod (Solidago altissima L.)

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 1424-1438, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect‐derived molecular cues can prime plant defences against herbivore attack. The genes that are sensitive to priming, and how their expression changes on the scale of days, have not been fully resolved. Moreover, priming may affect interactions with insects that are not the source of the priming cue.

Transcriptome analysis and genome-wide identification of WRKY gene family in Leonurus japonicus under drought stress

BMC Plant Biology
Background Leonurus japonicus (L. japonicus) is a herbaceous flowering plant, widely distributed in Asia. Drought is one of the primary environmental stress factors affecting L. japonicus growth. Previous studies have demonstrated that WRKY transcription

A Continuum of Pre‐Activated, Early, Coordinated and Multilayered Transcriptional Defence Responses Underpins Enhanced Resistance to Fusarium oxysporum in Vanilla planifolia

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 2, March–April 2026.
In Vanilla planifolia, CR0020 resistance to Fusarium wilt is linked to early (4–8 hpi) ERF/MYB/WRKY reprogramming and a preactivated transcriptional state, activating ROS, lignification and phytoalexins. ABSTRACT Vanilla planifolia, the main species cultivated for vanilla production, is severely threatened by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis‐vanillae (

A note on the nomenclatural representation of plant transcription factors, and deviations thereof

The EuroBiotech Journal
Plant transcription factors (TFs) are integral proteins associated with gene transcription. That ability arises after TFs bind to specific DNA sequences, such as promoters, responding positively or negatively to a multitude of endogenous and exogenous ...
