The bromodomain-containing proteins (BRD-proteins) belongs to family of 'epigenetic mark readers', integral to epigenetic regulation. The BRD-members contain a conserved 'bromodomain' (BRD/BRD-fold: interacts with acetylated-lysine in histones), and several additional domains, making them structurally/functionally diverse. Like animals, plants also contain multiple Brd-homologs, however the extent of their diversity and impact of molecular events (genomic duplications, alternative splicing, AS) therein, is relatively less explored.

Article Synopsis
  • * Three bacteria—Pantoea agglomerans, Pseudomonas plecoglossida, and Lactococcus lactis—were identified for their efficient siderophore production, enhancing iron uptake and plant growth in hydroponic tests with tomato and wheat.
  • * The study found that cell-free siderophore preparations were more effective than whole bacteria in improving plant health, with Pantoea agglomerans showing the highest iron uptake, suggesting that integrating siderophore solutions in nutrient management can boost iron levels for better plant nutrition.
