A previous study generated lettuce (Lactuca sativa) mutant lines tagged by retrotransposon Tnt1 from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) and identified a homozygous mutant, Tnt6a, that exhibited severe dwarf phenotype. Here we show that Tnt1 is inserted into the intron of gibberellin biosynthetic gene LsGA3ox1 in Tnt6a mutants. Expression analysis suggests that LsGA3ox1 is nearly knocked out in the Tnt6a mutants.

, the valuable traditional Chinese medicinal plant, has been used in clinics for thousands of years. The water-soluble salvianolic acid compounds are bioactive substances used in treating many diseases. Gibberellins (GAs) are growth-promoting phytohormones that regulate plant growth and development.

is a medicinal plant and an important source for the commercial production of tropane alkaloids (TAs), such as scopolamine and hyoscyamine, which are used clinically for their anticholinergic properties. In this study, we identified 16 metallocarboxypeptidase inhibitor (MCPI) genes from (), which are grouped into three subgroups based on phylogenetic relationships and are distributed across 10 chromosomes. Promoter analysis showed that most elements were related to defense and stress responses, such as drought, low-temperature, ABA (abscisic acid), GA (gibberellin), auxin, light and MeJA responsiveness.

In the present work, we examined the effects of exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) under ultraviolet B (UV-B) exposure on gibberellin (GA) production, signaling, and antioxidant-related genes in Pall (). Using transcriptomics, acetylated proteomics, and widely targeted metabolomics, the effects of UV-B stress on and the regulatory effects of exogenous ABA on it were revealed from multiple perspectives. The findings revealed that 's antioxidant enzyme genes were differentially expressed by UV-B radiation and were substantially enriched in the glutathione metabolic pathway.

The bHLH (basic Helix-Loop-Helix) transcription factor serves as pivotal controller in plant growth and development. In a previous study, the overexpression of in L. Ailsa Craig (AC) altered the JA (Jasmonic acid) response and endogenous GA (Gibberellic acid) content.

Adventitious root (AR) formation in plants originates from non-root organs such as leaves and hypocotyls. Auxin signaling is essential for AR formation, but the roles of other phytohormones are less clear. In , at least two distinct mechanisms can produce ARs, either from hypocotyls as part of the general root architecture or from wounded organs during de novo root regeneration (DNRR).
