Phenotypic and transcriptional variability have been extensively described in unicellular organisms and mammalian cells. However, increasing evidence now points to both intra- and inter-individual variability in plants. Cell-to-cell variability in gene expression within a single plant (intra-individual variability) is now recognised as a key factor contributing to the robustness of plant development as well as environmental responses. At a broader scale, multiple studies strongly suggest that inter-individual variability, often involving gene expression differences between individual seedlings, can be associated with an adaptive value at the population level under challenging environmental conditions. This review first aims to describe what is currently known about intra- and inter-individual variability in plants, with a main focus on gene expression variation and highlighting the importance of chromatin modifications. We then illustrate how the extent of individual variability can differ depending on environmental conditions, and discuss how the plasticity of such variability may enhance the ability of plants to respond to challenging situations. These observations finally underline the relevance of investigating individual variability in the context of agriculture.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11003,"journal":{"name":"Current opinion in plant biology","volume":"89 ","pages":"Article 102833"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145733635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MicroRNAs, small RNAs, and ribosomal RNAs have established mechanisms for generation, maturation, and function.

They often exhibit low expression and limited sequence conservation yet display tissue or stress-specific regulation. Furthermore, lncRNAs are categorized based on their location relative to nearby genes, including sense (overlapping a gene on the same strand), antisense (overlapping on the opposite strand), intronic (located within intron), intergenic (found between genes), and bidirectional (transcribed in the opposite direction from a nearby gene). Here, we summarized the last years of work in the field of lncRNA, but instead of grouping them into the biological processes they are involved in, we attempt to group them into general functions in plants. This will not be an exhaustive grouping of known functions for lncRNA, rather a list of established functions with several characterized cases.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11003,"journal":{"name":"Current opinion in plant biology","volume":"89 ","pages":"Article 102830"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145721357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To protect against pathogen threats, plants possess a multifaceted immune system that perceive threats derived from plant pathogens, resulting in the activation of immune responses. Evolutionary pressures allow plant pathogens to evolve rapidly and evade recognition by nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) receptors. In recent years, advancements in our understanding of the molecular and structural basis of effector recognition by NLRs have enabled targeted strategies for engineered receptors that contain novel or expanded recognition profiles. In conjunction with advancements in structural modeling and synthetic biology tools, this has transformed our ability to manipulate plant receptors with precision. Here, we highlight structure-based approaches toward engineering plant NLRs, including integrated domain (ID) engineering and leucine-rich repeat resurfacing, discuss challenges associated with NLR engineering, and highlight future engineering approaches to enhance the plant immune system against pathogen threats.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11003,"journal":{"name":"Current opinion in plant biology","volume":"89 ","pages":"Article 102828"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145653702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent studies have expanded the conditions that are directly impacted by translational regulation. This control can balance responses to developmental, environmental, and diverse stress stimuli. Processes with evidence of translational regulation include: immunity to bacterial pathogens, symbiotic interactions, abiotic responses, hormonal perception, light-dependent metabolism, and developmental programs for lateral root initiation, root hair growth, and sepal initiation. Translational control modes rely on the sequence and secondary structure of mRNAs due to the presence of upstream open reading frames (uORFs) and/or internal ribosome entry sites (IRES), protein-binding regions or structures, and the decoding of the epitranscriptomic mRNA modifications such as N<sup>6</sup>-methyladenosine, N<sup>4</sup>-acetylcytidine or pseudouridine. In addition, the post-translational modification of ribosomal proteins and eukaryotic initiation factors such as eIF4G, eIFiso4G, eIF2, as well as changes in ribosome protein composition contribute to translational control. These factors, mRNAs, regulatory proteins and other RNAs can be confined by the formation of biomolecular condensates such as stress granules, processing bodies and others, resulting in paths that modulate translation both globally and specifically. The covered topics place translation as a hub for cell responses during development and within the environmental context. Current understanding of translation has allowed the development of applications in crops, reinforcing the relevance of the study of translational control in plants.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11003,"journal":{"name":"Current opinion in plant biology","volume":"88 ","pages":"Article 102799"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145211711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
