(1) Background: , a valuable medicinal fungus, has limited studies on its gene function due to the lack of a genetic transformation system. (2) Methods: This study aimed to establish an efficient -mediated transformation (ATMT) system for This study involved cloning the promoter (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, ) of , reconstructing the transformation vector, optimizing the treatment of receptor tissues, and inventing a new method for screening positive transformants. (3) Results: The established ATMT system involved replacing the CaMV35S promoter of pCAMBIA-1301 with the promoter of to construct the pCAMBIA-SH- transformation vector. The vectors were then transferred to (EHA105) for infection. This study found that the transformation efficiency was higher in the infection using pCAMBIA-SH- vectors than using pCAMBIA-1301 vectors. The mycelia of were homogenized for 20 s and collected as the genetic transformation receptor. After 20 min of co-culture and 48 h of incubation in 15 mL PDL medium at 25 °C, new colonies grew. (4) Conclusions: These colonies were transferred to PDA medium (hygromycin 4 μg/mL, cefotaxime 300 μg/mL), and the transformation efficiency was determined to be 33.7% using PCR.

Background: RNA silencing-based antiviral breeding is a promising strategy for developing virus-resistant plants.
Objectives: This study employed viral sense, anti-sense, and hairpin constructs to induce resistance against beet curly top virus (BCTV) and beet curly top Iran virus (BCTIV).
Materials And Methods: For this purpose, a 120-bp conserved sequence of Rep- and C2-BCTV and a 222-bp conserved sequence of CP-, Reg-, and MP-BCTIV were selected for construct production.

The ability to quench reactive oxygen species (ROS) overproduced in plant chloroplasts under light stress conditions is essential for securing plant photosynthetic performance and agricultural yield. Although genetic engineering can enhance plant stress resistance, its widespread application faces limitations due to challenges in successful transformation across plant species and public acceptance concerns. This study proposes a nontransgenic chemical approach using a designed chimeric peptide that scavenges ROS within plant chloroplasts for managing light stress.

Background/objective: Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is an uncommon thyroid cancer (TC), rarely found in hyperfunctioning goiter.
Case Report: We present a case of a woman treated for breast carcinoma (BCA) found to have a benign hyperfunctioning nodular goiter, its likely transformation to MTC, and its treatment. Family history revealed papillary thyroid cancer in her nephew.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder caused by mutations in the NF1 gene, affecting approximately 1 in 3 000 newborns worldwide. Plexiform neurofibroma (PNF) is one of the common clinical manifestations of NF1. PNF can lead to a range of clinical symptoms, with a high rate of disability and teratogenesis; furthermore, there is a risk for malignant transformation that poses significant threats to the life and health of patients.

Plants are an important source of food, energy, and bioproducts. Advances in genetics, genomics-assisted breeding, and biotechnology have facilitated the combining of desirable traits into elite cultivars. To ensure sustainable crop production in the face of climate challenges and population growth, it is essential to develop and implement techniques that increase crop yield and resilience in environments facing water scarcity, nutrient deficiencies, and other abiotic and biotic stressors.
