Expression of a constitutively active nitrate reductase increases SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein production in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves that otherwise show traits of senescence

This study shows that expressing a constitutively active nitrate reductase in Nicotiana benthamiana increases SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein production by reducing leaf senescence and improving nitrogen metabolism.

Molecular changes in agroinfiltrated leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana expressing suppressor of silencing P19 and coronavirus-like particles

The paper compares immune responses in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves expressing coronavirus-like particles (CoVLPs) or influenza VLPs, showing overlapping defense responses and demonstrating that Kunitz trypsin inhibitors reduce CoVLP-induced symptoms.

Tomato cystatin SlCYS8 as a trigger of drought tolerance and tuber yield in potato

This study shows that expressing tomato cystatin SlCYS8 in potato improves drought tolerance and tuber yield by promoting root growth and enhancing primary metabolism.
