Efficient production of transgenic tomatoes via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation

Biologia Plantarum, 2010
Cotyledonary leaves of 9-d-old tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) were co-cultivated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens GV 3101 harboring binary vector pBI101 containing kanamycin resistance gene (npt II) as selection marker.

Microneedle‐Based Biofertilizer Delivery Improves Plant Growth Through Microbiome Engineering

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 13, 12 February 2026.
This figure shows how microneedles are used to deliver biofertilizers to enhance plant growth through microbial migration, metabolic reprogramming, and changes in plant endogenous microbiome. Abstract This study presents a microneedle‐based system for the delivery of rhizospheric biofertilizers into plant tissues to enhance growth.

Glucuronoyl Esterase of Pathogenic Phanerochaete carnosa Induces Immune Responses in Aspen Independently of Its Enzymatic Activity

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 602-619, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbial enzymes expressed in plants add new functionalities but occasionally trigger undesirable immune responses. Phanerochaete carnosa glucuronoyl esterase (PcGCE) hydrolyses the bond between lignin and 4‐O‐methyl‐α‐D‐glucuronic acid substituent of glucuronoxylan.

Hormonal response and root architecture in Arabidopsis thaliana subjected to heavy metals

International Journal of Plant Biology, 2014
In this work, specific concentrations of cadmium, copper and zinc in double combination, were supplied for 12 days to growing seedlings of the model species Arabidopsis thaliana. Metal accumulation was measured in roots and shoots.

Chemically Induced Resistance to Pathogen Infection in Arabidopsis by Cytokinin (Trans‐Zeatin) and an Aromatic Cytokinin Arabinoside

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
Trans‐zeatin (tZ) and the cytokinin conjugate BAPA induce plant resistance to Pseudomonas syringae. Both require the AHK3 and NPR1 receptors, but BAPA lacks unfavourable cytokinin activities, indicating its potential for application. ABSTRACT This study compares the ability of the cytokinin (CK) trans‐zeatin (tZ) and the CK sugar conjugate 6‐(3 ...
