While most geminiviruses possess monopartite genomes, the genus Begomovirus uniquely includes both monopartite and bipartite members. The evolutionary origin of the second component of begomovirus (DNA-B) has been a subject of considerable debate. Two primary hypotheses propose that DNA-B originated from a modified monopartite genome or through the capture of a satellite DNA. Recent discoveries of unclassified bipartite geminiviruses call for a reevaluation of these hypotheses. To address this, we investigated the evolutionary history of the begomovirus nuclear shuttle protein (NSP) through homolog searches, comparative genomics, and structural protein analyses. Our findings unambiguously demonstrated that NSP is homologous to the coat protein (CP) but originated from a CP encoded by an ancient geminivirus lineage, distinct from begomoviruses. This ancient lineage is represented by bipartite viruses integrated into plant genomes of the genus Rhododendron. These results challenge the prevailing paradigm regarding the evolutionary origin of NSP and offer new insights into the evolution of begomovirus genome architecture.","PeriodicalId":20064,"journal":{"name":"Plant Molecular Biology","volume":"115 4","pages":"81"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144554151","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}

This study investigated the impact of sodium pyrophosphate (Na-PPi) on the growth of Arabidopsis under 0 mM and 50 mM NaCl conditions. The results showed that 1 mM Na-PPi significantly inhibited the growth of Arabidopsis seedlings in 0.5 MS medium and exacerbated the growth suppression caused by NaCl stress. Na-PPi significantly increased the accumulation of compatible osmolytes in Arabidopsis under NaCl treatment. Additionally, under normal growth condition, Na-PPi treatment significantly reduced the levels of ROS in Arabidopsis; however, this trend was reversed under salt stress condition. Meanwhile, Na-PPi was found to significantly enhance the activity of antioxidant enzymes under both normal and salt stress conditions. Under salt stress, Na-PPi induces the upregulation of genes related to oxidative stress and salt/osmotic stress (such as marker for oxidative stress response protein and OSM34). Moreover, we discovered that Na-PPi significantly downregulates the expression of HAK5, which may account for the significantly decrease in K+ content of Arabidopsis seedlings. Intriguingly, genetic evidence shows that SOS proteins play crucial role in the adaptation of Arabidopsis to NaCl + Na-PPi stress. These findings shed light on the role of PPi in plant growth and stress responses, which contributes to the appropriate management and disposal of PPi in practice.","PeriodicalId":20064,"journal":{"name":"Plant Molecular Biology","volume":"115 4","pages":"80"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144541885","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}

Waterlogging, a direct consequence of prolonged soil saturation, severely affects plant growth by causing hypoxia, impaired nutrient uptake, photosynthesis inhibition, energy depletion, and microbiome disturbances, ultimately leading to plant mortality. Despite research progress in mitigating waterlogging stress, the molecular mechanisms underlying plant perception and their subsequent adaptive responses remain largely unclear. Recent advancements in molecular, biochemical, and multi-omics technologies have enabled significant progress in understanding the molecular mechanisms of plant responses to stress conditions. In this review, we highlight the metabolic pathways and key genes that could be targeted to enhance waterlogging tolerance and discuss how advanced techniques can be implemented to understand waterlogging responses and develop resistant cultivars. We review molecular insights into how ethylene and hypoxia signaling pathways trigger waterlogging responses and highlight key factors involved in energy metabolism and phytohormone signaling pathways, along with possible directions for further study.","PeriodicalId":20064,"journal":{"name":"Plant Molecular Biology","volume":"115 4","pages":"78"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144529272","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}

The photoperiod stress phenotype is characterized by an induction of stress and cell death marker genes, the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and enhanced formation of jasmonates during the night following the extended light period. Previously, experiments had shown that the jar1-1 mutant, carrying a point mutation in the jasmonoyl-isoleucine (JA-Ile) biosynthesis gene JAR1, showed a strongly reduced stress phenotype suggesting that JA-Ile is required for the stress response. Here, we have analyzed the roles of JA-Ile and JAR1 in more detail. While jar1-1 reduced the photoperiod stress phenotype indicating that JAR1 is required for the response to photoperiod stress, mutation of the ALLENE OXIDE SYNTHETASE (AOS) jasmonate biosynthesis gene did not rescue the stress phenotype. Further, analysis of jasmonate signaling mutants did not indicate their broad resistance to photoperiod stress. Unexpectedly, other JAR1 mutant alleles like jar1-11 and fin219-2 did not alleviate the photoperiod stress phenotype. Genetic analysis revealed that a recessive unlinked second-site mutation in the jar1-1 mutant background is responsible for the suppression of the photoperiod stress response. Taken together, these results suggest that JA-Ile is less important for the response to photoperiod stress than indicated by previous results.","PeriodicalId":20064,"journal":{"name":"Plant Molecular Biology","volume":"115 4","pages":"79"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12206676/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144529271","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review examines the various biological functions of thionins, their molecular mechanisms of action, and their potential applications in agriculture. Particular attention is paid to current limitations, including peptide stability, specificity, regulatory challenges, and innovative approaches to overcome these, such as encapsulation technologies and targeted delivery systems. In addition, the role of thionins in promoting sustainable agriculture and improving the climate resilience of crops will be discussed. Thionins support ecosystem health and food security by reducing dependence on synthetic agrochemicals. Continued research and interdisciplinary collaboration are essential to close current knowledge gaps and facilitate the path to practical implementation.

This complex system has independently evolved across multiple angiosperm lineages and is crucial in maintaining plant reproductive success. Recent research has expanded our understanding of self-incompatibility's molecular basis and uncovered key genes and signaling pathways involved in self-incompatibility responses, such as S-RNase in Solanaceae and PrsS-PrpS in Papaveraceae, as well as the SRK-SCR interaction in Brassicaceae. However, despite significant advances, many aspects of self-incompatibility, such as the interplay between gene duplications, polyploidization, and the evolution of novel self-incompatibility mechanisms, remain underexplored. This review integrates findings from various plant families, including Solanaceae, Rosaceae, Papaveraceae, and Brassicaceae, and discusses the evolutionary dynamics of self-incompatibility systems, highlighting the role of gene duplication, recombination, and translocation events in shaping self-incompatibility diversity. Special emphasis is placed on understanding how modern molecular techniques, such as CRISPR/Cas9 and marker-assisted selection, can be employed to transition self-incompatibility to self-compatibility in economically significant crops. Additionally, the role of epigenetic changes and modifier genes in mediating transitions from self-incompatibility to self-compatibility is addressed, offering insights into how these mechanisms can be leveraged for crop breeding and hybrid seed production. Future research should focus on elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying self-incompatibility responses, exploring the potential of targeted gene editing to overcome reproductive barriers, and understanding the evolutionary resilience of self-incompatibility systems to environmental changes.","PeriodicalId":20064,"journal":{"name":"Plant Molecular Biology","volume":"115 4","pages":"76"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144485544","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}

One determinant of crossing success between wild and cultivated potato species is the effective ploidy of the parents.

Tests for species-specific pollen tube guidance using semi-in vivo assays suggested a positive correlation between species-specificity and taxonomic distance. RNA-seq of ovules dissected from wild type plants at anthesis (mature ovules) and two days before anthesis (immature ovules), as well as from a frk1 (fertilization-related kinase 1) mutant lacking an embryo sac (ES) identified a list of 284 ES-dependent transcripts highly expressed in mature ovules and poorly expressed in all other samples. Among these are 17 Solanum chacoensecysteine-rich proteins (ScCRPs), considered to be candidates for pollen tube attractants since identified attractants in other species are also CRPs. A group of three cloned and purified ScCRP2 peptides belonging to the DEFL protein family showed moderate levels of in vitro pollen tube attraction activity in functional assays.

This insect deposits eggs on rice surfaces, and their hatched larvae bore into stems, causing substantial yield losses. Whereas the responses of rice to larval feeding are well-documented, less is known about its reaction to C. suppressalis oviposition at the molecular and biochemical levels, despite evidence that insect egg deposition triggers various defence mechanisms in plants. In this study, next-generation RNA sequencing and comprehensive metabolomics were utilised to analyse rice leaves with and without eggs, revealing shifts in gene expression and metabolite synthesis. The effects of egg-deposited rice to oviposition behaviour were also tested. The results indicated 1,350 differentially expressed genes and 234 differential metabolites 24 h after C. suppressalis oviposition. Up-regulated genes included those involved in defence, stress responses, and secondary metabolism. Furthermore, metabolomic studies indicated increased levels of lipids, flavonoids, terpenoids, and phenolic compounds in response to oviposition, mirroring the observed responses against pathogens. Oviposition behavioural test results suggested that C. suppressalis oviposition activity was deterred by egg-laden rice. These findings enhance our understanding of induced defence mechanisms in rice against C. suppressalis at the molecular and biochemical levels, potentially guiding the development of ovicidal substances, insect-resistant rice varieties, and rice-protection strategies.","PeriodicalId":20064,"journal":{"name":"Plant Molecular Biology","volume":"115 4","pages":"74"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144286050","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}
