Published: September 2009

Jasmonic acid (JA) and its derivates, collectively known as jasmonates (JAs), are essential signalling molecules that coordinate the plant response to biotic and abiotic challenges, in addition to several developmental processes. The COI1 F-box and additional SCF modulators have long been known to have a crucial role in the JA-signalling pathway. Downstream JA-dependent transcriptional re-programming is regulated by a cascade of transcription factors and MYC2 plays a major role. Recently, JAZ family proteins have been identified as COI1 targets and repressors of MYC2, defining the 'missing link' in JA signalling. JA-Ile has been proposed to be the active form of the hormone, and COI1 is an essential component of the receptor complex. These recent discoveries have defined the core JA-signalling pathway as the module COI1/JAZs/MYC2.

Introduction: Inducing natural resistance against pathogen infection in postharvest tomatoes is a sustainable strategy for reducing postharvest losses. The action model underlying the resistance enhancement of tomatoes induced by bacterial volatile organic compounds (VOCs) against , however, have not been explored.

Methods: In this study, RNA-seq, metabolomics and physiological analysis were used to evaluate global change of defense response induced by VOCs in tomatoes.

Post-embryonic primary root growth is effectively an interplay of several hormone signalling pathways. Here, we show that the ABA-responsive transcription factor ABI3 controls primary root growth through the regulation of JA signalling molecule JAZ1 along with ABA-responsive factor ABI1. In the absence of ABI3, the primary root elongation zone is shortened with significantly reduced cell length.

Article Synopsis
  • Soil salinity poses a significant threat to crop growth, with cotton known for its salt tolerance and importance in saline-alkali land utilization, especially the two main species, Gossypium hirsutum and G. barbadense.
  • A study compared the responses of G. hirsutum (TM-1) and G. barbadense (Hai7124) to salt stress, finding that Hai7124 showed better growth and had stronger antioxidant capabilities while TM-1 had higher potassium content.
  • Transcriptome analysis revealed substantial molecular differences, with Hai7124 focusing on defense mechanisms and TM-1 on growth, indicating that different genes and pathways are activated in response to salt stress, demonstrating why Hai7124 is

Loss-of-function of LIGULELESS1 activates the jasmonate pathway and promotes maize resistance to corn leaf aphids.

Plant Biotechnol J

December 2024

The National Key Engineering Lab of Crop Stress Resistance Breeding, The School of Life Sciences, Anhui Agricultural University, Hefei, China.

Corn leaf aphids (Rhopalosiphum maidis) are highly destructive pests of maize (Zea mays) that threaten growth and seed yield, but resources for aphid resistance are scarce. Here, we identified an aphid-resistant maize mutant, resistance to aphids 1 (rta1), which is allelic to LIGULELESS1 (LG1). We confirmed LG1's role in aphid resistance using the independent allele lg1-2, allelism tests and LG1 overexpression lines.
