This study identifies CANE1 as a regulator of autophagosome size in Arabidopsis thaliana under phosphate starvation, linking it to ER stress and autophagy.

The paper identifies a conserved selective autophagy receptor, CESAR, critical for proteostasis under heat stress in plants through cross-species interactome analysis.

The paper shows electrostatic changes in the Exo70 subunit led to its dissociation from the exocyst complex, enabling functional divergence in plants.

The paper shows that different ATG8 isoforms in Arabidopsis have specialized functions in autophagy, as demonstrated by a mutant lacking all nine isoforms and complementation experiments.

This study identifies EDC4 and DCP1 as autophagy receptors for P-body turnover in Marchantia polymorpha, revealing lineage-specific adaptations and potential therapeutic applications.

This study identifies a vacuolar quality control pathway in plants that uses ATG8ylation to protect vacuolar integrity following cell wall damage.

This study shows that metabolic enzymes act as autophagy receptors in plants to degrade defense executors during viral infection, revealing autophagy as a tolerance pathway rather than an antiviral defense.

This study identifies Friendly as a mediator of mitophagy in Arabidopsis, showing its role in stress-induced and developmental mitophagy.
