Glycogen removal enhances ethylene production in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 but exposes a 2-oxoglutarate-GS-GOGAT-phosphate constraint

This study shows that removing glycogen in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 increases ethylene production but creates a metabolic constraint involving 2-oxoglutarate, GS-GOGAT, and phosphate.

Cytokinin Mediates Photosynthesis and Senescence Action Through CHLOROPLAST IMPORT APPARATUS 2 (CIA2) and CIA2-like (CIL)

This study identifies CIA2 and CIL as key mediators of cytokinin's antisenescence effects through chloroplast function regulation in Arabidopsis.

Nutrient Availability Modulates Beneficial Effect of Bacterial Community Volatiles and Contact-Dependent Interactions Differently

This study shows that bacterial community volatiles and direct contact differently affect plant growth under varying nutrient conditions, engaging distinct host regulatory pathways.

Multilevel analysis of response to plant growth promoting and pathogenic bacteria in Arabidopsis roots and the role of CYP71A27 in this response

The paper investigates how Arabidopsis distinguishes between plant growth promoting and pathogenic bacteria, showing CYP71A27 plays a regulatory signaling role rather than a metabolic one in this process.
