Upon MCMV infection in #maize, P31 obstructs the formation of the ZmRACK1-ZmCDPK7-ZmAPX1 complex, inhibiting ZmCDPK7-mediated ZmAPX1 activity and promoting #ROS production to facilitate viral infection. Read the study here!

OsKOL4 and OsKOL5, five-gene tandem arrays encoding members of the ent-kaurene oxidase family, play divergent roles in momilactone metabolism, but both act in the production of #antifungal and #antibacterial phytoalexins.

#Arabidopsis root growth is known to be suppressed under low Pi conditions. Here, Zhang et al. report that this #growth inhibition is caused by the collapse of #auxin transport in the presence of accumulated iron.

Wounded plants: how they coordinate their healing

In a new study, scientists unraveled the mystery behind how wounded plants coordinate their healing. By investigating the role of the hormone Auxin and pressure changes, they discovered the intricate cellular mechanisms guiding plant regeneration. This understanding sheds light on how plants adapt and survive in challenging environments.
