It is susceptible to photodamage, and the damaged PSII is repaired through a sophisticated biological process assisted by numerous auxiliary proteins. Here we report the cryogenic electron microscopy structures of four PSII-repair complexes from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii associated with the Thylakoid Enriched Fraction 30 (TEF30, an orthologue of plant MET1) protein—namely, a TEF30–PSII core monomer (TEF30-C), two types of TEF30–PSII core dimers (types I and II, TEF302-C2-I and TEF302-C2-II) and a TEF30-C2S-type PSII–LHCII supercomplex (TEF30-C2S; S, strongly associated light-harvesting complex II trimer). TEF30 mediates the assembly of CP43 with the RC47 module by clamping on the stromal surfaces and prevents the premature association of peripheral antennae with PSII-C. In the transition from TEF302-C2-I to TEF302-C2-II, TEF30-C2S and mature C2S2, one PSII core slides along the dimerization interface against the adjacent one by 22–35 Å, generating a zigzagged surface for accommodating the peripheral antennae. These results suggest that the PSII repair process undergoes multiple TEF30-mediated intermediate states to form intact PSII–LHCII supercomplexes.","PeriodicalId":18904,"journal":{"name":"Nature Plants","volume":"57 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144500541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

C-REPEAT BINDING FACTORs (CBFs) are central regulators of cold signalling and also modulate root stem cell activity. While the receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase CRPK1 promotes CBF destabilization under cold stress, its regulatory partner remains unclear. Here we identify KINASE ON THE INSIDE (KOIN), a plasma-membrane-localized receptor-like kinase, as a crucial interactor of CRPK1. The loss of either KOIN or CRPK1 results in cold-insensitive root phenotypes, characterized by sustained primary root elongation and enhanced cortex cell proliferation via the 14-3-3–CBF3–SHR pathway. Under cold stress, KOIN undergoes endocytosis and is recycled back to the plasma membrane in a CRPK1-dependent manner. Although catalytically inactive, KOIN modulates CRPK1 protein levels and phosphorylation through a non-catalytic mechanism. These findings uncover a membrane-to-nucleus signalling module that integrates receptor trafficking with intracellular kinase activity to mediate cold-induced root growth inhibition in Arabidopsis.","PeriodicalId":18904,"journal":{"name":"Nature Plants","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144500543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the delivery of genome-editing reagents remains to be a technological bottleneck in monocot plants1. Here we engineered barley yellow striate mosaic virus (BYSMV) into a negative-strand RNA virus-based vector system2 for delivery of both Cas9 and single guide RNA to achieve heritable gene editing in different wheat cultivars. We found that fusion of a mobile transfer RNA sequence3 to the Cas9 messenger RNA and single guide RNAs could deliver them into the growth points of axillary meristems to achieve gene editing before tiller generation. The resulting nascent tillers contained simultaneous mutations in the three homoeoalleles. Moreover, the progeny seedlings are virus-free and harbour bi-allelic or homozygous mutations. Given BYSMV infects 26 monocot species4, the BYSMV delivery system could have wide applicability for achieving highly efficient, non-transgenic and less genotype-dependent heritable genome editing, thereby facilitating genomic studies and crops breeding.","PeriodicalId":18904,"journal":{"name":"Nature Plants","volume":"634 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144478961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the enzymes and mechanisms underlying this process are poorly understood. Here we cloned a gene from maize that encodes a plastid-localized and Mn2+-dependent 5′–3′ exonuclease (designated PEN1) responsible for this process. The pen1 seeds show development and filling defects that intensify across generations. PEN1 cleaves the RNA primers, allowing for the complete excision of ribonucleotides. We reconstituted the plastid RNA primer removal processes in vitro. We also determined the crystal structure of the PEN1–dsDNA binary complex and explained the structural mechanism of the 5′ to 3′ exonuclease activity. Mutation of Pen1 resulted in the accumulation of ptDNA breaks, thereby compromising plastid function.

It remains unknown how the activities of plant m6A reader proteins are regulated in plant responses to stress. Here we show that the rice m6A reader protein EVOLUTIONARILY CONSERVED C-TERMINAL REGION 3 (OsECT3), required for rice tolerance to cold, is post-translationally modified by lysine acetylation, which reduces its m6A-binding activity. Under cold conditions, OsECT3 acetylation is reduced by cold-induced histone deacetylase HDA705 and low ACLA2-sourced acetyl-CoA levels, resulting in an increase in OsECT3 m6A-binding activity, the accumulation of cold-response-related mRNAs and improved tolerance of rice to cold stress. These results unravel a regulatory mechanism of an m6A reader protein to dynamically control m6A RNA levels under stress and suggest a link between lysine acetylation, metabolism and m6A pathways.","PeriodicalId":18904,"journal":{"name":"Nature Plants","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144335093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The sex-determining genes have been identified in several active-Y plant systems, but the evolution and functioning of X–A balance systems remains mysterious. Here we sequenced and compared the genomes of two hop species. The evolution of the hop X–A balance system involved an ancient recombination suppression event across a large X chromosome region shared by both species. In one species, an autosome fused to this ancestral sex chromosome, and recombination was subsequently suppressed again. The two evolutionary strata created in this neo-X have degenerated to different degrees and evolved correspondingly different dosage compensation levels that correlate with histone modification patterns. Finally, we identified an X-specific ETR1-like ethylene receptor in the ancestral X region. Its dosage may affect sex determination, as part of the counting mechanism of this X–A balance system.","PeriodicalId":18904,"journal":{"name":"Nature Plants","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144312014","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
