BEI and BEIIa are expressed ubiquitously, on the other hand BEIIb is exclusively expressed in the endosperm. The loss of BEIIb generates opaque seeds with drastically reduced short amylopectin chains, whereas the loss of BEI slightly reduces long amylopectin chains. However, the loss of BEIIa has no obvious effect on amylopectin structure in the endosperm. Little is known about these isozymes' specific and compensatory roles in other tissues. In this study, all three combinations of double mutants were generated, and their starch properties were analyzed to reveal the function of the solely remaining isozyme, deduce the compensatory function of the missing isozymes, and clarify their roles in different organs. be2a be2b displayed severe sterility and hindered starch synthesis in the endosperm; be1 be2a displayed only minor alterations in endosperm starch; but be1 be2b displayed a drastic increase in amylose content in the endosperm. These results indicate that BEIIa has some compensatory function for BEIIb, and BEI alone is insufficient. Additionally, BEIIa or BEIIb is necessary for endosperm formation. Unlike the endosperm, short amylopectin chains were drastically reduced in the leaf sheath of be1 be2a and be2a be2b, and amylose content was drastically increased in the leaf sheath of be1 be2a and be2a be2b but not be1 be2b. These results indicate that BEIIa has a major role in the leaf sheath, and the generation of short amylopectin chains by BEII can be partially compensated by BEI.","PeriodicalId":20064,"journal":{"name":"Plant Molecular Biology","volume":"115 2","pages":"51"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143721003","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 investigated flavanones exhibited enhanced radical scavenging capabilities relative to the parent flavanone, with Hesperidin demonstrating the highest EA and Qmax values, consistent with its antireductant activity. The remaining flavanones displayed lower IE values, suggesting their antioxidant efficacy. Spectroscopic analysis revealed that the HOMO-LUMO and HOMO-1-LUMO transitions are the primary electronic transitions in the UV-Visible spectra of the studied flavanones. Their absorption within the UV-A and UV-B range (260-345 nm) indicates potential utility as UV filters. Theoretical calculations demonstrate that the reactivity of flavanones is concentrated in ring [B], with a reactivity order of 3' > 4' > 2' > 6 > 7 > 5. The BDE values reveal that the 3'-OH group has the lowest value, followed by the 4' position, while hydrogen bonding is responsible for the increased BDE value at position 5. The values of ΔBDE and ΔAIP, relative to phenol, provide a framework for elucidating the preferred mechanism, HAT or SET, underlying the antioxidant behavior.

Breeding high-protein varieties remains the most cost-effective and efficient approach to increasing soybean protein levels. Nevertheless, limited research has focused on identifying the genes responsible for high protein content among the diverse soybean cultivars. To address this gap, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted on 455 soybean varieties with varying protein content to predict and validate novel genes involved in regulating protein levels in soybean seeds. Protein content data were obtained from three distinct environments, along with three environmental variables derived from oil content, which is closely related to protein levels. Genotyping was performed using the SoySNP180k BeadChip, yielding genotype data for 63,306 non-redundant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Five multi-locus GWAS methods were employed, resulting in the identification of 81 significant quantitative trait nucleotides (QTNs), of which 37 QTNs detected across different methods and environments were further analyzed. Moreover, the simulation platform Blib was used to conduct single-crossing simulation breeding on 81 QTN loci for actual breeding prediction.

These stresses significantly hinder crop yields and product quality, posing substantial challenges to sustainable agriculture and global food security. Simultaneously, the rapidly growing global population exacerbates the need to enhance crop production under worsening environmental conditions. Consequently, the development of effective strategies to strengthen the resilience of crop plants against high temperatures, water scarcity, and extreme environmental conditions is critical for mitigating the impacts of abiotic stress. Plants respond to these environmental challenges by reprogramming their transcriptome and metabolome. Common strategies for developing stress-tolerant plants include screening germplasm, generating transgenic crop plants, and employing genome editing techniques. Recently, chemical treatment has emerged as a promising approach to enhance abiotic stress tolerance in crops. This technique involves the application of exogenous chemical compounds that induce molecular and physiological changes, thereby providing a protective shield against abiotic stress. Forward and reverse genetic approaches have facilitated the identification of chemicals capable of modulating plant responses to abiotic stresses. These priming agents function as epigenetic regulators, agonists, or antagonists, playing essential roles in regulating stomatal closure to conserve water, managing cellular signaling through reactive oxygen species and metabolites to sustain plant growth, and activating gluconeogenesis to enhance cellular metabolism. This review summarizes recent advancements in the field of chemical priming and explores strategies to improve stress tolerance and crop productivity, thereby contributing to the enhancement of global food security.","PeriodicalId":20064,"journal":{"name":"Plant Molecular Biology","volume":"115 2","pages":"47"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11922999/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143664139","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}

AS patterns can change in response to abiotic and biotic stress, allowing cellular functions to adapt to environmental conditions. Here, we examined the effects of cellular stress-inducing chemicals on AS-mediated gene regulation in Arabidopsis thaliana by investigating the alternatively spliced forms of SERINE-ARGININE PROTEIN30 (SRp30) and U1-70 K, encoding splicing factors, as well as ASCORBATE PEROXIDASE3 (APX3) and FOLYLPOLYGLUTAMATE SYNTHASE3 (FPGS3), encoding enzymes important for stress responses. Disrupting key cellular activities, including nitric oxide metabolism, ATPase activity, plastid function, and genome stability, affected AS patterns in Arabidopsis. Stress treatment altered the abundance of uridine-rich small nuclear RNAs (UsnRNAs), especially U1 snRNAs, which are essential non-coding RNA components of U1 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (U1 snRNPs), suggesting that abnormalities in AS are partially mediated by changes in U1 snRNA levels. The shoot redifferentiation defectice2-1 (srd2-1) mutant defective for snRNA transcription was hypersensitive for stress treatment, since it showed changes in AS patterns at lower concentrations of stress inducers to compare with the wild type. Together, our data suggest that cellular stress can influence gene expression in plants by regulating AS, which is partially regulated by UsnRNA levels through the SRD2-mediated snRNA transcription.","PeriodicalId":20064,"journal":{"name":"Plant Molecular Biology","volume":"115 2","pages":"46"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11911268/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143639779","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}

Seed dormancy and germination are controlled by a combination of external and internal signals, in which light and ethylene act as critical regulators. However, how light and ethylene are interlinked to control these two processes remains to be investigated. Here, we show that ethylene and its precursor, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC), promote seed germination under light. Light facilitates the conversion of ACC to ethylene, in which phytochrome B (phyB) and FAR-RED ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL3 (FHY3) are functionally required. ACC oxidases (ACOs) catalyze the conversion of ACC to ethylene, among which ACO1 is specifically and predominantly expressed in imbibed seeds. Ethylene induces FHY3 protein accumulation in imbibed seeds, whereby FHY3 directly binds to ACO1 promoter and specifically mediates light-promoted ACO1 expression. Light promotes ACO1 protein accumulation. Overexpression of ACO1 significantly promotes seed germination, and almost completely restores the dormant defect of fhy3 loss-of-function mutants. In summary, this study reveals an ethylene-responsive regulatory cascade of phyB-FHY3-ACO1 that integrates external light input with internal factors to regulate seed dormancy and germination.","PeriodicalId":20064,"journal":{"name":"Plant Molecular Biology","volume":"115 2","pages":"44"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143625620","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}

In response to such stressors, microRNAs which are small non-coding regulatory RNA molecules have been observed as key players. The present study evaluates the role of drought-responsive microRNAs in the root tissues of chickpea genotypes contrasting for drought tolerance. This study led to the generation of 146.7 million short-read sequences from small RNA libraries constructed from the root tissues of the two genotypes. Upon analysis, 224 conserved and 155 novel miRNA sequences were identified. The miR156 family was found to be the most abundant among the 51 families identified for the conserved miRNAs. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to validate eleven conserved and six novel miRNAs. The identification of drought-induced expression of specific miRNAs and their related target genes suggests miRNA-mediated response mechanisms in chickpea.

This study employed genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to investigate \"stress memory,\" a phenomenon where prior stress exposure enhances a plant's response to subsequent stress events. In this study, we analyzed essential agronomic traits, including plant height, spike length, grain number, and thousand-kernel weight, in conjunction with biochemical markers such as chlorophyll content, proline, and soluble proteins. These assessments spanned three successive generations under heat stress, capturing transgenerational and intergenerational effects and uncovering the cumulative impacts of prolonged stress in the third generation. Markedly, our findings highlight the critical influence of heat stress on plant physiology across generational scales, showcasing significant reductions in chlorophyll content, which reflect stress-induced limitations on photosynthetic capacity. In contrast, the observed consistent and substantial increases in proline and soluble protein content across transgenerational, intergenerational, and third-generation stress memory stages underscore their vital roles in stress mitigation and cellular homeostasis. These results provide compelling evidence of generational stress memory, suggesting potential adaptive strategies that plants employ to cope with harsh environmental conditions. Interestingly, identifying significant SNP markers within key genomic regions using GWAS analysis further highlights the potential for harnessing these loci in breeding programs. These results shed light on the intricate mechanisms of barley's stress tolerance and underscore the potential of integrating genomic, epigenomic, and advanced phenotyping tools into breeding programs to develop heat-resilient cultivars.","PeriodicalId":20064,"journal":{"name":"Plant Molecular Biology","volume":"115 2","pages":"42"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143597560","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}
