In order to withstand high light (HL) stress, plants have evolved both short-term defense and repair mechanisms and long-term acclimation responses. At present, however, the underlying signaling events and molecular mechanisms are still poorly understood. Analysis of the mutants coe1, coe1 gun1 double mutant and oeGUN1coe1 revealed increased sensitivity to HL stress as compared to wild type (WT), with oeGUN1 coe1 plants displaying the highest sensitivity. Accumulation of FTSH2 protein and degradation of D1 protein during the HL stress were shown to depend on both COE1 and GUN1. Overexpression of COE1 enhanced the induction of FTSH2 and the tolerance to HL stress. These results indicate that the COE1-GUN1 signaling pathway plays an important role in regulating the adaptation of plants to HL.

Soybean, the fourth most important crop in the world, uniquely serves as a source of both plant oil and plant protein for the world's food and animal feed. Although soybean production has increased approximately 13-fold over the past 60 years, the continually growing global population necessitates further increases in soybean production. In the past, especially in the last decade, significant progress has been made in both functional genomics and molecular breeding.

Since the ban of neonicotinoid insecticides in the European Union, sugar beet production is threatened by outbreaks of virus yellows (VY) disease, caused by several aphid-transmitted viruses, including the polerovirus beet mild yellowing virus (BMYV). As the symptoms induced may vary depending on multiple infections and other stresses, there is an urgent need for fast screening tests to evaluate resistance/tolerance traits in sugar beet accessions. To address this issue, we exploited the virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) system, by introducing a fragment of a gene involved in chlorophyll synthesis in the BMYV genome.

Automated systems, regulated by algorithmic protocols and predefined set-points for feedback control, require the oversight and fine tuning of skilled technicians. This necessity is particularly pronounced in automated greenhouses, where optimal environmental conditions depend on the specialized knowledge of dedicated technicians, emphasizing the need for expert involvement during installation and maintenance. To address these challenges, this study proposes the integration of data acquisition technologies using Internet of Things (IoT) protocols and optimization services via reinforcement learning (RL) methodologies.

The global advancement of genome-edited plants toward commercialization has been significantly shaped by the functionality and flexibility of some regulatory frameworks governing plant genome editing. These frameworks vary widely across countries, reflecting diverse approaches to assessing and managing the risks and benefits of genome-editing technologies. While some nations have adopted product-based frameworks that focus on the characteristics of the final plant rather than the technique used, others rely on more restrictive process-based regulations.
