Article Synopsis

* Overexpression of MaFLA27 led to increased expression of genes involved in cell wall components and modification, contributing to thicker cell walls and higher levels of cellulose, lignin, and certain pectins in plants.
* In contrast to wild-type plants, MaFLA27-overexpressing plants showed lower levels of pectin methyl-esterification and reduced reactive oxygen species after cold exposure, indicating a potential mechanism for improved cold tolerance linked to cell wall modifications.

The effect of light and water on aromatic rice remain largely unclear. A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the influences of light-water treatments (CK: natural light and well-watered conditions, WS: natural light and water-stressed conditions, LL: low light and well-watered conditions, LL-WS: low light and water-stressed treatment) on yield and 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2AP) formation in aromatic rice. Compared with CK, the light-water treatments decreased grain yield (10.
