Osr40g3 imparts salt tolerance by regulating GF14e-mediated gibberellin metabolism to activate EG45 in rice

This study identifies Osr40g3 as a gene that enhances salt tolerance in rice by regulating gibberellin metabolism through interactions with OsGF14e and OsEG45.

Designer grass pea for transgene-free minimal neurotoxin-containing seeds with CRISPR-Cas9

This study uses CRISPR-Cas9 to create grass pea plants with minimal neurotoxin {beta}-ODAP in seeds, achieving 99% reduction without transgenes.

Glutathione-mediated S-Nitrosylation of WRKY75 modulates PHT1;5 expression to orchestrate phosphate homeostasis in Arabidopsis

The paper shows that glutathione-mediated S-nitrosylation of WRKY75 activates AtPHT1;5 to regulate phosphate homeostasis in Arabidopsis under phosphate starvation.

Glutathione regulates transcriptional activation of iron transporters via S-nitrosylation of bHLH factors to modulate subcellular iron homeostasis

This study shows glutathione regulates subcellular iron homeostasis under iron deficiency by activating iron transporters through S-nitrosylation of bHLH transcription factors.

Jacalin domain-containing protein OsSalT interacts with OsDREB2A and OsNAC1 to impart drought stress tolerance in planta

Rice lectin protein Osr40c1 imparts drought tolerance by modulating OsSAM2, OsSAP8 and chromatin-associated proteins

This study identifies Osr40c1 as a rice lectin protein that enhances drought tolerance by modulating OsSAM2, OsSAP8, OsMNB1B, and OsH4, which regulate downstream gene expression and polyamine biosynthesis.
