The Advantaged Salt Inducible Suaeda salsa SsNRT2.5 and Its Promoter Significantly Enhance Nitrate Transport Efficiency and Salt Tolerance in Transgenic Arabidopsis and Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient nitrogen (N) uptake is critical for crop yield, but soil salinization inhibits plant nitrogen acquisition. In this study, the nitrate (NO3−) transporter gene SsNRT2.5 and its promoter from the halophyte Suaeda salsa was investigated to elucidate the functional role in NO3− transport under salinity and low NO3−–N conditions.

Heat-inducible SlWRKY3 confers thermotolerance by activating the SlGRXS1 gene cluster in tomato

Horticultural Plant Journal
High temperature stress is one of the major environmental factors that affect the growth and development of plants. Although WRKY transcription factors play a critical role in stress responses, there are few studies on the regulation of heat stress by ...

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (

MdRLKT1–MdRAX2–MdMKS1 Module Positively Regulating Resistance to Cytospora mali in Apple

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Valsa canker (caused by Cytospora mali = Valsa mali. C. mali) is one of the most destructive diseases affecting apple cultivation. The scarcity of natural germplasm resources with high resistance and immunity underscores the importance of exploring plant immune regulation factors of disease‐resistant breeding.

Analysis of BpbHLH Gene Family Responsive to MeJA Signalling in Betula platyphylla Suk. and Functional Mechanisms of BpbHLH42/44 in Genetic Improvement and Triterpenoid Biosynthesis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The basic helix–loop–helix (bHLH) transcription factor family regulates plant secondary metabolism, development and stress responses. Although triterpenoids such as betulinic acid (BA), betulin (BT) and oleanolic acid (OA) from Betula platyphylla Suk.

ZmWRKY29 Transcriptionally Represses ZmRBOHC to Attenuate ROS Production and Facilitates Gibberella Stalk Rot Susceptibility in Maize

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gibberella stalk rot (GSR), caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum, severely threatens maize production. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying maize resistance to GSR remain poorly understood. Here, we have identified ZmWRKY29 as a transcriptional repressor induced by F.

The role of WRKY transcription factors in plants

BioTechnologia, 2015
The WRKY proteins are one of the largest families of transcriptional regulators in plants. Their biosynthesis is<br /> induced during certain stages of plant development and upon pathogen infection. A single WRKY transcription<br /> factor may be involved in the regulation of several apparently disparate processes.

SlMYB17 Antagonises the SlCBF Pathway to Negatively Regulate Tomato Chilling Tolerance

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Low temperature is a significant environmental constraint, impeding the extensive cultivation of tropical plants. Here, we identify the transcription factor SlMYB17 as an important negative regulator of tomato chilling tolerance. Overexpression of SlMYB17 significantly reduced chilling tolerance, whereas slmyb17 mutants exhibited enhanced ...
