Leaf size critically influences photosynthetic capacity, impacting organic matter production and biomass yield. This study reports the identification and characterization of a small leaflet mutant (sl1) in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) generated via aerial mutagenesis. Compared to the wild-type Qiongzhong, sl1 displayed significantly reduced leaf area, plant height, stem diameter, and biomass, characteristic of a dwarf phenotype.

Transcriptomic analysis identified 1,039 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), indicating disruptions in, among others, plant hormone signaling pathways. Analysis of 28 target plant hormone metabolites revealed significant shifts in sl1 mutant compared to wild-type, including increased levels of strigolactone, methyl indole-3-acetate, and trans-zeatin-riboside, and decreases in gibberellin A3, N6-isopentenyladenine, and methyl jasmonate.

This study confirms Mi- 1 gene's role in defence by inducing programmed cell death, lignin accumulation, and cellular remodelling in resistant plants. Root-knot nematodes, particularly Meloidogyne species, pose a significant economic threat to tomato cultivation globally. Despite the identification of various Mi genes, their mechanisms of action are not fully understood. This study aimed to elucidate the role of the Mi- 1 gene by analysing transcriptomic data from both resistant and susceptible tomato genotypes and by constitutively expressing Mi- 1 in a susceptible cultivar. Transcriptome analysis of leaf and root samples upon RKN infection showed that the Mi- 1 gene was exclusively present in the roots of resistant plants. Further to investigate its function Mi- 1 was constitutively expressed under the CaMV 35S promoter in a susceptible tomato cultivar.

Rice (Oryza sativa L.), a critical crop for global food security, faces significant challenges from abiotic stresses. Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), synthesized by glutamate decarboxylase (GAD), plays a vital role in stress tolerance. Truncating the calmodulin-binding domain (CaMBD) in GAD enzymes enhances GAD activity and GABA production. In this study, we developed a hybrid line, Hybrid #78, by crossing two genome-edited lines, OsGAD1ΔC #5 and OsGAD3ΔC #8, with truncated CaMBD in OsGAD1 and OsGAD3, respectively. Hybrid #78 demonstrated significantly improved survival rates in cold (25%), salinity (33%), flooding (83%), and drought (83%) stress conditions, compared with wild-type Nipponbare (0-33%), OsGAD1∆C #5 (0-66%), and OsGAD3∆C #8 (0-50%). Hybrid #78 showed the highest GABA levels during stress, with increases of 3.5-fold (cold), 3.9-fold (salinity), 5-fold (flooding), and 5-fold (drought) relative to wild-type Nipponbare and up to 2-fold higher than that of the parent lines. RNA-seq analysis from shoot tissues in control conditions identified 975 differentially expressed genes between Hybrid #78 and wild-type Nipponbare, with 450 genes uniquely expressed in the hybrid. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment revealed that upregulation in nitrogen metabolism pathways likely contributes to enhanced GABA synthesis via increased glutamate production. Hybrid #78 also showed broader gene expression variability, suggesting enhanced adaptability to stress, especially upregulation of stress-related genes, such as OsDREB, OsHSP70, and OsNAC3.

Di19 (drought-induced 19) proteins play a crucial role in regulating plant development and various stress responses. However, a systematic identification and functional analysis of the Di19 gene family members in woodland strawberry has not yet been conducted. In this study, we identified four Di19 genes in woodland strawberry, and analyzed the phylogenetic tree, conserved protein domains, and gene structure. Cis-elements suggested that FvDi19 genes may be involved in plant development and stress responses. Gene expression analysis revealed diverse expression patterns of FvDi19 genes under different stress conditions, and overexpression of FvDi19 genes enhanced drought and salt tolerance in yeast. Transgenic and stress tolerance assays indicated that FvDi19-3 overexpression in Arabidopsis enhanced plant drought and salt tolerance by promoting stomatal closure, improving the plant's ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species and the expression of drought or salt-responsive genes.

Heterologous expression of Zja11G000860 in yeast enhanced tolerance to drought stress, allowing robust growth even at high PEG6000 concentrations. Zoysiagrass is renowned for its drought tolerance and serves as an exceptional domestic turfgrass in China. However, the changes in chromatin accessibility during drought in zoysiagrass are not well understood. We conducted a preliminary evaluation of the phenotypic changes in drought tolerance for six zoysiagrass cultivars, taking into account their growth characteristics and physiological traits under drought conditions. Additionally, we utilized an integrated multi-omics strategy, encompassing RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), Assay for Transposase Accessible Chromatin using high-throughput sequencing (ATAC-seq), and reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) verification experiments, to gain deeper understanding of the chromatin accessibility patterns linked to gene expression in response to drought stress in zoysiagrass. Preliminary analysis of the trends in relative water content and proline content suggested that the variety 'X4' exhibited superior drought tolerance compared to the other five accessions. The KEGG pathway enrichment analysis revealed that zoysiagrass responded to environmental stress by regulating stress response and antioxidant defense pathways. Notably, the expression levels of genes Zja03G031540 and Zja11G000860 were significantly increased in the 'X4' zoysiagrass genotype, which exhibited improved drought tolerance, compared to the 'X1' zoysiagrass genotype with reduced drought tolerance. This study suggested that 63 high-confidence genes are related to drought stress, including Zja03G031540 and Zja11G000860. Additionally, six motifs regulating drought responses were unearthed. Furthermore, the heterologous expression of Zja11G000860 in yeast enhanced tolerance to drought stress. The study discovered a positive correlation between ATAC-seq peak intensity and gene expression levels. The expression of high-confidence genes was linked to zoysiagrass resistance evaluation and phenotypic traits, implying that these genes are involved in responding to external drought stress.

Transgenic soybeans expressing crystal (Cry) insecticidal proteins have been utilized for insect pest management. However, the efficacy of currently adopted insect-resistant soybean is challenged by insect resistance evolution. Vegetative insecticidal proteins (Vips) are highly active against a broad spectrum of lepidopteran insects. They differ from Cry in modes of action, and show great potential for lepidopteran pest management. Here, we report the creation and characterization of a transgenic soybean event CAL-16 which expresses a fusion protein of Cry1Ab and Vip3A. CAL-16 is a single copy T-DNA insertion transgenic event highly resistant to a broad-spectrum of lepidopteran insects. Insect bioassays demonstrated that CAL-16 caused 100% mortality to neonates of Helicoverpa armigera, Spodoptera litura, Agrotis ipsilon, Spodoptera exigua and Spodoptera frugiperda. Field trial also demonstrated its excellent resistance to Leguminivora glycinivorella, a severe pest feeding on soybean seeds. The expression of the fusion protein was found to be constitutively high in CAL-16 throughout developmental stages, and highly stable over 12 generations. Moreover, there was no statistical difference in agronomic traits between CAL-16 and its non-transgenic recipient control plants in field trial. In conclusion, CAL-16 is an elite soybean event with high efficacy toward major lepidopteran pests.
