NUT1-Exo70A1 Regulates Xylem Vessel Development and Influences Water Use Efficiency in Maize

Nature Communications
Efficient water uptake and transport through xylem vessels are essential for plant growth and development. The patterned secondary cell wall (SCW) structure of xylem vessels provides robust mechanical support to withstand the strong negative pressure ...

Recent plant photosynthate as a driver of ecological and evolutionary processes

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Timeline of key eco‐evolutionary outcomes arising from belowground allocation of recent plant photosynthate from shoots. Summary Plants rapidly allocate carbon from photosynthesis belowground via root exudates and root‐associated microorganisms. Here we synthesise recent evidence of our understanding of the consequences of this ‘fast’ pathway of recent

Simultaneous Overexpression of FERULOYL‐CoA 6′‐HYDROXYLASE 1 and COUMARIN SYNTHASE Leads to Coumarin‐Enriched Lignin and Improved Saccharification in Greenhouse‐ and Field‐Grown Poplar

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The urgent need for renewable resources has increased the interest in woody biomass to manufacture bio‐based products. However, lignin recalcitrance limits the enzymatic conversion of wood into fermentable sugars, posing a major challenge for biomass deconstruction.

MaMPK3‐2 Phosphorylating and Stabilizing Transcriptional Repressor MaAS1 by Counteracting MaRNF4‐Mediated Ubiquitination During Banana Fruit Ripening

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ripening of fleshy fruits is strongly regulated by a complex interplay between transcriptional regulation and post‐translational modifications (PTMs). However, the specific PTM regulatory networks involved in fruit ripening remain poorly understood.

PbSnRK1‐Mediated Phosphorylation of PbTCP13 Regulates Glucose‐Responsive Lignin Biosynthesis via PbMYB11 During Pear Stone Cell Formation

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stone cell lignification is a key determinant of pear fruit texture and commercial quality, and this process has been reported to be tightly coupled to cellular glucose availability. However, how glucose dose‐dependently targets transcription factor phosphorylation during lignin biosynthesis remains largely unknown.

QTL Mapping of Several Seed Quality Traits in the DH Population NPZ06 × NPZ09 (Brassica napus L.) for Marker‐Assisted Selection

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Enhancing nutritional quality of oilseed rape requires deeper insight into the genetic control of seed quality traits. This study analysed the effect of varying soil phosphorus (P) levels on seed quality traits in the hybrid cultivar Architect. NIRS and laboratory methods were used to quantify total seed P and phytic acid (IP6) content.

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...
