HY5 orchestrates the transcriptional network controlling coumarin-mediated iron acquisition under elevated pH conditions

This study identifies HY5 as a master regulator of coumarin-mediated iron acquisition under alkaline conditions in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Blue Light Promotes Root Iron Acquisition via a Shoot CRY-HY5 Signaling Module in Arabidopsis.

This study shows blue light enhances iron accumulation in Arabidopsis roots via a shoot CRY-HY5 signaling pathway under iron deficiency.

Cytokinin-mediated repression of jacalin lectins reinforces root immunity

This study shows cytokinin represses jacalin lectins in the root cap to enhance tolerance to soil-borne pathogens like Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum.

CRISPR/Cas9 editing of the wheat iron sensor TaHRZ1 confirms its conserved role in iron homeostasis and allocation in grains

This study uses CRISPR-Cas9 to edit wheat TaHRZ1 homoeologs, showing enhanced iron loading in grains and supporting their role in iron homeostasis.

Integrative spatial transcriptomic analysis pinpoints the role of the ferroxidase, TaMCO3, in wheat root tip iron mobilization

The paper identifies TaMCO3 as a ferroxidase in wheat root tips that enhances iron uptake under deficiency by improving gene expression and rescuing mutant phenotypes.

An endogenous peptide PEP2 modulates Iron-deficiency signalling and root growth in Arabidopsis.

This study identifies PEP2 as an endogenous peptide that modulates iron-deficiency signaling and root growth in Arabidopsis by regulating IRT1, FRO2, and PEPR2-mediated responses.

ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL 5 (HY5) and POPEYE (PYE) Regulate Intercellular Iron Transport in Plants.

This study shows HY5 and PYE regulate intercellular iron transport in plants by interacting and repressing Fe transport genes.
