Stage-resolved multi-omics links flavonoid accumulation to antioxidant capacity in Isatis indigotica fruit

Rong Chen, Xiaoshan Geng, Lili Wang, Xuexue Wang et autres

Isatis indigotica fruit is an underutilized source of natural antioxidant ingredients. However, the developmental basis of its bioactive metabolites remains unclear. We integrated widely targeted metabolomics, transcriptomics, and antioxidant phenotyping across five fruit developmental stages (S1-S5) to characterize metabolic remodeling, identify flavonoid-related …

Effects of Biochar on Soil Nutrients and Microorganisms in Litchi Seedling Cultivation

Rong Chen, Jie Yang, W. Liu, Chao Fan

Biochar, a highly effective amendment, is widely used for soil improvement and environmental remediation. However, research on its application in litchi (Litchi chinensis) cultivation is relatively scarce, particularly regarding its potential to enhance the rhizospheric soil ecological environment. In this study, a …

Genome-wide identification, phylogenetic investigation and abiotic stress responses analysis of the PP2C gene family in litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.)

Jie Yang, Rong Chen, Wei Liu, Chao Fan

As an important regulatory protein phosphatase in the abscisic acid (ABA) signal transduction pathway and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) cascade, type-2C protein phosphatase (PP2C) plays crucial roles in plant responses to abiotic stresses. However, the PP2C gene family’s responses to abiotic stress …

Comprehensive Genome-Wide Investigation and Transcriptional Regulation of the DHHC Gene Family in Cotton Seed and Fiber Development

Saimire Silaiyiman, Qinyue Zheng, Yutao Wang, Lejun Ouyang et autres

Protein palmitoylation, the most common and the only reversible post-translational lipid modification following protein translation, plays a pivotal role in the biochemical and physiological processes of both animals and plants. DHHC proteins, enriched with DHHC (Asp-His-His-Cys) domains, serve as catalyst for protein …

Genome-Wide Characterization and Phylogenetic and Stress Response Expression Analysis of the MADS-Box Gene Family in Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.)

Jie Yang, Rong Chen, Wei Liu, Xu Xiang et autres

The MADS-box protein is an important transcription factor in plants and plays an important role in regulating the plant abiotic stress response. In this study, a total of 94 MADS-box genes were predicted in the litchi genome, and these genes were widely …

ABLs and TMKs are co-receptors for extracellular auxin

Yongqiang Yu, Wenxin Tang, Wenwei Lin, Wei Li et autres

Extracellular perception of auxin, an essential phytohormone in plants, has been debated for decades. Auxin-binding protein 1 (ABP1) physically interacts with quintessential transmembrane kinases (TMKs) and was proposed to act as an extracellular auxin receptor, but its role was disputed because abp1 …

The potential of bamboo seeds for natural biofortification of dietary zinc and iron

Qifang Hu, Rong Wang, Lin Hu, Rong Chen et autres

Abstract Moso bamboo has been shown to accumulate high concentrations of iron and zinc in the seeds. However, the bioavailablity of iron and zinc in bamboo seeds is poorly understood. Here, we evaluated the bioaccessibility and bioavailability of iron and zinc in …

SlZF3 regulates tomato plant height by directly repressing SlGA20ox4 in the gibberellic acid biosynthesis pathway

Jinying Luo, Yunfei Tang, Zhuannan Chu, Yuxin Peng et autres

Abstract Plant height is an important target trait for crop genetic improvement. Our previous work has identified a salt-tolerant C2H2 zinc finger, SlZF3, and its overexpression lines also showed a semi-dwarf phenotype, but the molecular mechanism remains to be elucidated. Here, we …

Folate shapes plant root architecture by affecting auxin distribution

Ying Li, Jinying Luo, Rong Chen, Yuhong Zhou et autres

Folate (vitamin B9) is important for plant root development, but the mechanism is largely unknown. Here we characterized a root defective mutant, folb2, in Arabidopsis, which has severe developmental defects in the primary root. The root apical meristem of the folb2 mutant …
