Zhichao Gong et al.
Newly differentiated leaves of albino ornamental kale turn white as exposed to low temperatures, producing a distinctive and commercially desirable unique color pattern. Here, we show that this low-temperature-induced albinism is caused by ...
Enhancing CRISPR-Cas12a base editing in plants with LbCas12a variants and introns [0.03%]
利用LbCas12a变异体和内含子在植物中增强CRISPR-Cas12a碱基编辑
Yanhao Cheng,Gen Li,Man Zhou et al.
Yanhao Cheng et al.
Cytosine base editors (CBEs) and adenine base editors (ABEs) are powerful tools for precise genome editing in plants. Conventionally, such base editors are built upon the CRISPR-Cas9 systems where Cas9 nickases are used. To expand the base ...

This Commentary summarizes the original work by Liao et al. on the role of NITROGEN LIMITATION ADAPTATION (NLA) in cold tolerance, places it within the broader context of climate change and nutrient constraints, and discusses the engineered...
Fungal effector FolCP1b promotes infection by sequestering host subtilase SlSBT1 to protect apoplastic effectors from degradation [0.03%]
效应物 FolCP1b 通过结合宿主蛋白酶 SlSBT1 来促进病原真菌的侵染及胞外效应物的稳定
Zhengang Miao,Baoshan Wang,Limin Song et al.
Zhengang Miao et al.
Plant pathogens use a diverse arsenal of effectors to suppress host immunity, though the precise mechanisms of their action are often not fully understood. In this study, we characterize FolCP1b, a cerato-platanin (CP) effector secreted by ...
TADs, CGVs, and compartmentalization in genomes: Providing a new way for crop domestication and improvement [0.03%]
基因组中的TADs、CGVs和区室化：作物驯化和改良的新途径
Qamar U Zaman,Robert J Henry,Zhihua Mu et al.
Qamar U Zaman et al.
Genetic variation underlying phenotypic diversity between wild and domesticated species has been extensively studied, the contribution of higher-order chromatin architecture to these processes remains less explored. Advances in Hi-C and rel...
A conserved fungal Egh16-like effector suppresses host defense by disrupting ATP binding of wheat MPK3 [0.03%]
一个保守的真菌Egh16样效应子通过干扰小麦MPK3的ATP结合来抑制宿主防御反应
Jiangang Kang,Gang Niu,Yihui Liao et al.
Jiangang Kang et al.
ATP binding is an essential event in diverse biological processes including plant immunity. The ATP-binding domains in plant kinases share similar structural properties, providing a potential common target for pathogens. However, effectors ...
12-hydroxylauric acid, a novel growth regulator, promotes plant organ development [0.03%]
新型生长调节物质12-羟基月桂酸促进植物器官发育
Yan Peng,Mengling Zhang,Zengdong Tan et al.
