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

ABSTRACT Field trials were conducted of wheat (Triticum aestivum) cv. Cadenza in which asparagine synthetase gene, TaASN2, had been knocked out, either on its own or together with a partial knockout of the related gene, TaASN1, using CRISPR/Cas9. Chemical mutagenesis (TILLING) TaASN2 nulls in the Claire background were also included.

A Novel AP2/ERF Transcription Factor Controls Trichome Initiation and Fruit Development in Cucumber
ABSTRACT Trichomes, the hair‐like outgrowths of the plant epidermis, are critical for defence, reproduction and development. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms governing their initiation remain elusive. Here, we identified CsGL2, an AP2/ERF transcription factor, as a key integrator controlling trichome initiation and fruit development in ...

Designed Alleles of ZmRap2.7 Decouple the Trade‐Off Between Early Flowering and Yield Penalty
ABSTRACT Flowering time genes often exhibit pleiotropic effects. In particular, early flowering is frequently associated with reduced grain yield due to a shorter growth period. This trade‐off poses a major challenge for developing early‐maturing and high‐yielding varieties, a key breeding objective in modern maize production. Here, we demonstrate that

Cell‐Specific Expression and Cellular Compartmental Regulation in Camptothecin Biosynthesis
ABSTRACT Plant secondary metabolites such as monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) show tightly regulated biosynthesis and accumulation in specific organelles of distinct cell types. However, the cell‐specific expression patterns of anticancer MIA camptothecin biosynthetic genes in Ophiorrhiza pumila and the regulatory mechanisms of camptothecin ...
