Two Aquaporins Mitigate Growth‐Defence Trade‐Offs by Facilitating CO2 and H2O2 Transport in Wheat

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growth‐defence trade‐offs pose a major challenge to breeding high‐yield and disease‐resistant crops. Aquaporins are membrane channels that facilitate the transport of water and other small compounds, therefore regulating the growth‐defence trade‐offs.

Tuning Xylan Polymerisation Enhanced Fibre Digestibility Without Biomass Loss in Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis)

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Leymus chinensis (sheepgrass), a dominant perennial grass of the Eurasian Steppe, is a crucial source of carbohydrates and energy for ruminants. However, the lignocellulose recalcitrance severely limits its digestibility. Here, we targeted xylan, a major hemicellulose interacting with cellulose and lignin in cell wall. To improve digestibility,

CitPH4 Confers Resistance to Citrus Canker by Activating Papain‐Like Cysteine Protease

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Citrus canker, a devastating disease caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc), poses a significant threat to global citrus production due to the high susceptibility of nearly all commercial citrus cultivars to it. Although transcription factor Citrus PH4 (CitPH4) is well known for regulating fruit acidity, its potential role in plant ...

Spatial Regulation of Silicon Accumulation in Peduncle Confers Sheathed Spike in Barley

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peduncle, the uppermost internode in cereals, connects the stem to the inflorescence and is critical for the transport of water, nutrients and photosynthetic assimilates. While peduncle length associates with plant height and its elongation is primarily regulated by phytohormones, we report a previously unrecognized mechanism involving the ...
