Perception of butenolides by Bacillus subtilis via the α/β-hydrolase RsbQ

K. T. Melville, M. Kamran, J. Yao, M. Costa, M. Holland, N. L. Taylor, G. Fritz, M. T. Waters

This study identifies RsbQ in Bacillus subtilis as a butenolide hydrolase that mediates signaling responses to plant-derived butenolides, influencing growth and biofilm formation.

A resistance-gene-directed tolerance trait and selective inhibitors proffer HMG-CoA reductase as a new herbicide mode of action

J. Haywood, K. J. Breese, J. Zhang, M. T. Waters, C. S. Bond, K. A. Stubbs, J. S. Mylne

The paper identifies HMGR as a potential herbicide target and demonstrates the design of specific inhibitors and a tolerance trait.

Divergent receptor proteins confer responses to different karrikins in two ephemeral weeds

Y. K. Sun, J. Yao, A. Scaffidi, K. Melville, S. F. Davies, C. S. Bond, S. M. Smith, G. R. Flematti, M. T. Waters

The paper shows that Brassica tournefortii uses different KAI2 homologues to respond to KAR1, while Arabidopsis thaliana prefers KAR2, with two amino acid variants explaining ligand selectivity.
