Dwarfing and yellowing are characteristic symptoms caused by viral infections and are considered significant contributors for reduced crop yield. In this study, we identified that infection by barley yellow dwarf virus-GAV (BYDV-GAV) leads to a delay in the flowering process, potentially diminishing grain yield in wheat. The BYDV-GAV movement protein (MP) interacts with vascular plant one-zinc finger proteins (VOZs), which play a crucial role in promoting wheat flowering. Expression of MP inhibits floral transition in . Furthermore, BYDV-GAV MP facilitates the degradation of VOZ transcription factors via the 26S proteasome pathway, independently of phytochrome B (PhyB). Domain B in VOZ is essential for the interaction between VOZ and MP. Our results provide novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying virus-induced symptoms.

is one of the main vectors of barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV), which affects the grain yield of oats. Several biological control strategies have been studied to control this pest, one of which is Bee Vectoring Technology (BVT) using bumblebees. We tested the efficacy of , as vectored by bumblebees, and a direct spray application of neem (a natural bio-insecticide derived from the tree) on aphids.

Chloroplast protein transport depends on the SEC1 translocase. Barley xan-m mutants, deficient in SECA1, lack chlorophyll and die as seedlings. Their yellow phenotype indicates that carotenoid chemistry is less SEC1-dependent.

A spontaneous barley mutant, young leaf chlorina (ylc), was identified in this study. Young leaves of ylc exhibited a yellow base and green tip, with reduced chlorophyll content, and altered chlorophyll fluorescence pattern, and underdeveloped grana in chloroplasts. The color of mutant leaves gradually transitioned to pale green and then became green in mature leaves.

A hybrid molecularly imprinted ratiometric fluorescence probe was constructed based on the characteristic that dicamba (DIC) can brighten the blue fluorescence of Eu-MOFs. According to the change of the fluorescence color of the probe solution from yellow to blue, a smartphone-assisted detection platform was established to realize the visual detection of DIC. The detection limits of fluorescence and smartphone analysis are 0.
