OsCYP22 Interacts With OsCSN5 to Affect Rice Root Growth and Auxin Signalling.

Beyond structural support, plant root systems play crucial roles in the absorption of water and nutrients, fertiliser efficiency and crop yield. However, the molecular mechanism regulating root architecture in rice remains largely unknown. In this study, a short-root rice mutant was identified and named Oscyp22.

Turnip mosaic virus NIb weakens the function of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 6 facilitating viral infection in Nicotiana benthamiana.

Viruses rely completely on host translational machinery to produce the proteins encoded by their genes. Controlling translation initiation is important for gaining translational advantage in conflicts between the host and virus. The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) has been reported to be hijacked by potyviruses for virus multiplication.

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Profile of Gene Family Members in L.

Hyperosmolality and various other stimuli can trigger an increase in cytoplasmic-free calcium concentration ([Ca]). Members of the (L.) () gene family are reported to be involved in sensing extracellular changes to trigger hyperosmolality-induced [Ca] increases and controlling stomatal closure during immune signaling.

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Profiling of the BZR Transcription Factor Gene Family in .

Brassinazole-resistant (BZR) family genes encode plant-specific transcription factors (TFs), play essential roles in the regulation of plant growth and development, and have multiple stress-resistance functions. is a model plant widely used in basic research. However, members of the BZR family in have not been identified, and little is known about their function in abiotic stress.

Turnip mosaic virus impairs perinuclear chloroplast clustering to facilitate viral infection.

Chloroplasts play crucial roles in plant defence against viral infection. We now report that chloroplast NADH dehydrogenase-like (NDH) complex M subunit gene (NdhM) was first up-regulated and then down-regulated in turnip mosaic virus (TuMV)-infected N. benthamiana.

Downregulation of Light-Harvesting Complex II Induces ROS-Mediated Defense Against Turnip Mosaic Virus Infection in .

The light-harvesting chlorophyll / complex protein 3 (LHCB3) of photosystem II plays important roles distributing the excitation energy and modulating the rate of state transition and stomatal response to abscisic acid. However, the functions of LHCB3 in plant immunity have not been well investigated. Here, we show that the expression of in () was down-regulated by turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) infection.

Identification of Two New Isolates of From Different Regions in China: Molecular Diversity, Phylogenetic and Recombination Analysis.

(ChiVMV) is an important plant pathogen with a wide host range, causing serious yield losses in pepper production all over the world. Recombination is a major evolutionary event for single-stranded RNA viruses, which helps isolates adapt to new environmental conditions and hosts. Recombination events have been identified in multiple potyviruses, but so far, there have been no reports of recombination events among the ChiVMV population.
