Systematic Evaluation of Mesophyll Protoplast Isolation and PEG-Mediated Transient Expression in Rosa chinensis ‘Old Blush’

Stable transformation in rose is slow and genotype-dependent, motivating rapid cellular assays for candidate-gene testing. We systematically evaluated mesophyll protoplast isolation and PEG-mediated transient expression in Rosa chinensis ‘Old Blush’. Sequential experiments compared enzyme preparations, digestion time,...

Single Amino Acid Divergence Drives Functional Specialisation of Homologous GRFs in Populus.

Gene duplication with sub- and/or neo-functionalization is a key pathway in plant adaptive evolution. The duplication-degeneration-complementation (DDC) model explains sub-functionalization of paralogs, yet the relative contributions of coding sequence versus cis-regulatory changes remain contested. In this study, we s...

A molecular rheostat of ABA signaling coordinates the trade-off between stem growth and drought adaptation

Plants balance vegetative growth and stress responses through antagonistic phytohormone crosstalk, notably between abscisic acid (ABA) and cytokinin. However, the genetic architecture and molecular mechanisms driving this adaptive trade-off, particularly in perennial trees, remain elusive. Integrating ge...

The PtoERF1‐PtomiR393a‐PtoFBL4 module confers drought tolerance via ABA–auxin crosstalk in Populus

PtomiR393a, a drought‐responsive microRNA in Populus tomentosa that mediates crosstalk between ABA and auxin signaling pathways under drought stress is identified, offering new insights into drought tolerance mechanisms in trees and suggest potential strategies to enhance forest tree resilience to water‐deficit conditi...
