Sustainable management of late blight requires the development of resistant crop cultivars. This process can be facilitated by high-throughput identification of functional genes involved in late blight pathogenesis. In this study, we generated a high-quality transcriptomic time-course dataset focusing on the initial twenty-four hours of contact between P. infestans and three solanaceous plant species, tobacco(Nicotiana benthamiana), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), and potato (Solanum tuberosum). Our results demonstrate species-specific transcriptional regulation in early stages of the infection. Transient silencing of putative RIBOSE-5-PHOSPHATE ISOMERASE and HMG-CoA REDUCTASE genes in N. benthamiana lowered plant resistance against P. infestans. Furthermore, heterologous expression of a putative tomato Golgi-localized nucleosugar transporter-encoding gene exacerbated P. infestans infection of N. benthamiana. In comparison, bioassays using transgenic tomato lines showed that the quantitative disease resistance genes were required but insufficient for late blight resistance; genetic knock-out of the susceptibility gene enhanced resistance. The same RNA-seq dataset was exploited to examine the transcriptional landscape of P. infestans and revealed host-specific gene expression patterns in the pathogen. This temporal transcriptomic diversity, in combination with genomic distribution features, identified the P. infestans IPI-B family GLYCINE-RICH PROTEINs as putative virulence factors that promoted disease severity or induced plant tissue necrosis when transiently expressed in N. benthamiana. These functional genes underline the effectiveness of functional gene-mining through a time-course dual RNA-seq approach and provide insight into the molecular interactions between solanaceous plants and P. infestans.</p>","PeriodicalId":20101,"journal":{"name":"Plant Physiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143670079","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}

Elucidating the gene regulatory networks involved in plant stress responses is essential for developing future breeding programs and innovative agricultural products. Here, we introduce the AtSRGA (Arabidopsis thaliana  Stress Responsive Gene Atlas), a user-friendly application facilitating the retrieval of stress-responsive genes in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). The application was developed using 1,131 microarray and 1,050 RNA sequencing datasets obtained from public databases. These datasets correspond to 11 stress-related conditions, namely abscisic acid, cold, drought, heat, high light, hypoxia, osmotic stress, oxidative stress, salt, wounding, and Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000. Using a modified meta-analysis technique known as the vote-counting method, we computed integrated scores to evaluate stress responsiveness for each condition across multiple studies. AtSRGA visualizes gene behavior under 11 stress conditions and offers an interactive, user-friendly interface accessible to all researchers. It presents a comprehensive heatmap of stress-responsive genes, facilitating the comparative analysis of individual stress responses and groups of genes responding to multiple stresses. We validated the expression patterns of several high-scoring genes of unknown function under cold and heat stress using RT-qPCR, thus demonstrating that our application helps select targets to understand stress-responsive gene networks in Arabidopsis.

In contrast, examples of such plant-mediated interactions between belowground herbivores are scarce; however, we postulated that they similarly occur, given the large diversity of root-interacting soil organisms. To test this hypothesis, we analyzed the performance of cabbage root fly (Delia radicum) larvae feeding on the main roots of field mustard (Brassica rapa) plants whose fine roots were infected by the root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita). Simultaneously, we studied the effects of M. incognita on D. radicum-induced defense responses and the accumulation of primary metabolites in the main root. We observed that almost 1.5 times as many D. radicum adults emerged from nematode-infected plants, indicating a facilitation effect of M. incognita infection. Although we observed increases in the accumulation of proteins and two essential amino acids, the strongest effect of nematode infection was visible in the defense response to D. radicum. We observed a 1.5 times higher accumulation of the defense-related phytohormone JA-Ile in response to D. radicum on nematode-infected plants, coinciding with a 75% increase in indole glucosinolate concentrations. Contrastingly, concentrations of aliphatic glucosinolates, secondary metabolites negatively affecting D. radicum, were 10-25% lower in nematode-infected plants. We hypothesize that the attenuated aliphatic glucosinolate concentrations result from antagonistic interactions between biosynthetic pathways of both glucosinolate classes, which was reflected in the expression of key biosynthesis genes.

This perspective embeds back-of-the-envelope calculations across a photosynthetic organism design and scale up workflow. Starting from the whole system level, we provide a recipe to pinpoint key genetic targets, examine the logistics of detailed computational modeling, explore environmentally driven phenotypes, and feasibility as an industrial biofuel production chassis. While complex computer models or high throughput in vivo studies often dominate scientific inquiry, this perspective highlights the power of simple calculations as a valuable tool for initial exploration and evaluating study feasibility. Fermi calculations are defined as quick, approximate estimations made using back-of-the-envelope calculations and straightforward reasoning to achieve order-of-magnitude accuracy, named after the physicist Enrico Fermi. We show how Fermi calculations, based on fundamental principles and readily available data, can offer a first pass understanding of metabolic shifts in plants and microbes in response to environmental and genetic changes. We also discuss how Fermi checks can be embedded in data-driven advanced computing workflows to enable bio-aware machine learning. Lastly, an understanding of state-of-the-art is necessary to guide study feasibility and identifying key levers to maximize cost to return ratios. Combining biology- and resource- aware Fermi calculations, this proposed approach enables researchers to prioritize resource allocation, identify gaps in predictions and experiments, and develop intuition about how observed responses of plants differ between controlled laboratory environments and industrial conditions.</p>","PeriodicalId":20101,"journal":{"name":"Plant Physiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143670584","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}

Reproductive organs require a greater amount of boron for development and growth compared to vegetative organs. However, the mechanism by which plants distribute boron to specific organs is not fully understood. Under boron-limited conditions, the borate exporter BOR1 plays a central role in transporting boron from the roots to the shoots in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). Here, we found that BOR1 is expressed in the tapetal cells of young anthers in unopened buds, showing polar localization toward the locule where microspores develop. Tapetum-localized BOR1 undergoes endocytosis and is subsequently degraded during anther development. BOR1 degradation occurs independently of the lysine residue at position 590 of BOR1, which is responsible for high boron-induced ubiquitination and degradation. Loss-of-function bor1 mutants exhibit disrupted pollen structure, causing reduced fertility under boron-sufficient conditions in the wild type. These phenotypes were rescued by supplementing with high boron concentrations. Furthermore, inflorescence stem grafting experiments suggested that BOR1-dependent boron transport in the flower is necessary for pollen development and subsequent fertilization under boron-sufficient conditions. Our findings suggest the borate exporter BOR1, together with the previously described boric acid channel NIP7;1, facilitates boron transport in tapetal cells toward the locule, thereby supporting pollen development in young anthers under boron-limited conditions.","PeriodicalId":20101,"journal":{"name":"Plant Physiology","volume":"54 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143661414","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 four large subunits of Cyt b6f are responsible for organizing the electron transfer chain within Cyt b6f and have their counterparts in the cytochrome bc1 complex in other bacteria. The four small subunits of Cyt b6f are unique to oxygenic photosynthesis, and their functions remain to be elucidated. Here, we report that Cyt b6f was destabilized by the loss of PetN, one of the small subunits, in a petN mutant (ΔpetN) of Anabaena variabilis ATCC 29413 and that the amount of the large subunits of Cyt b6f decreased to 20-25% of that in the wild-type. The oxygen evolution activity of ΔpetN was approximately 30% of that from the wild-type, and the activity could largely be restored by the addition of N,N,N′, N′-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD), which functions as an electron carrier and bypasses Cyt b6f. Both linear and cyclic electron transfer of the mutant became partially insensitive to the Cyt b6f inhibitor 2,5-dibromo-3-methyl-6-isopropylbenzoquinone (DBMIB). Although the plastoquinone (PQ) pool was largely reduced in ΔpetN under normal light conditions, the mutant had a substantially higher PSII/PSI ratio than the wild-type.

The Salt Overly Sensitive (SOS) pathway functions upstream, while flavonoids act downstream, in ROS scavenging under salt stress. However, the potential crosstalk between the SOS pathway and flavonoids in regulating salt stress responses and the associated mechanisms remain largely unexplored. To assess this possible connection, we investigated the role of the soybean (Glycine max) transcription factor GmbZIP131 in enhancing salt tolerance by modulating ROS homeostasis through flavonoid biosynthesis. GmSOS2 like (GmSOS2L), a key component of the SOS pathway, phosphorylates and activates GmbZIP131, thus promoting GmICHG (isoflavone conjugate-specific beta-glucosidase) expression. Metabolic profiling of transgenic soybean lines revealed that GmbZIP131 upregulates the levels of lupiwighteone and its 7-glucoside precursor, likely processed by GmICHG. Furthermore, overexpression of GmSOS2L, GmbZIP131, or GmICHG enhances the accumulation of lupiwighteone and its 7-glucoside precursor, as well as soybean salt stress tolerance. Our findings reveal a GmSOS2L–GmbZIP131–GmICHG signaling cascade that enhances soybean salt tolerance through flavonoid accumulation.
