Nitrogen and Sulfur Effects on Brassica

Zero valent sulfur is the product of assimilatory sulfite reductase and a substrate of cysteine synthase

This study re-examines assimilatory sulfite reductases and cysteine synthases, finding that zero valent sulfur (S0) is the key intermediate in sulfate assimilation, not hydrogen sulfide (H2S).

Model of leaf biomass partitioning coefficient in different leaf ranks of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) main-stem

The paper develops a leaf biomass partitioning coefficient model for rapeseed main-stem leaf ranks, validated with experimental data showing high correlation and low error.

SNRK3.15 is a crucial component of the sulfur deprivation response in Arabidopsis thaliana

This study identifies SNRK3.15 as a key kinase in the sulfur deprivation response in Arabidopsis thaliana, showing its role in both early and late adaptive responses to sulfur deficiency.

An updated sulfate transporter phylogeny uncovers a perennial-specific subgroup associated with lignification

The paper updates the sulfate transporter phylogeny, identifying a perennial-specific subgroup linked to lignification in plants.

Resilience of rapeseed to heat stress during grain filling in a high yielding environment

This study evaluates the impact of heat stress on rapeseed grain yield during two phases of grain filling in southern Chile, finding that Lumen is more heat-tolerant than Solar CL.

Multi-omic analyses unveil contrasting composition and spatial distribution of specialized metabolites in seeds of Camelina sativa and other Brassicaceae

This study uses multi-omic analyses to compare the spatial distribution and composition of specialized metabolites in seeds of Camelina sativa, Arabidopsis thaliana, and Brassica napus.

Zinc finger transcription factors BnaSTOP2s regulate sulfur metabolism and confer resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in Brassica napus
