Climate change is rapidly changing how we live, what we eat and produce, the crops we
breed and the target traits. Previously underutilized orphan crops that are climate resilient …

Drought is one of the main abiotic factors that affect agricultural productivity, jeopardizing
food security. Modern biotechnology is a useful tool for the generation of stress-tolerant …

Vascular bundles play important roles in transporting nutrients, growth signals, amino acids,
and proteins between aerial and underground tissues. In order to understand these …

The plant vasculature is a central organ for long-distance transport of nutrients and signaling
molecules that coordinate vegetative and reproductive processes, and adaptation response …

The potato (Solanum tuberosum) ribosomal protein S27-encoding gene StD26 has
previously been linked to hyperosmotic stress tolerance in yeast transformants. Here, we …

Plant C2 domain proteins play essential biological functions in numerous plants. In this
study, 180 soybean C2 domain genes were identified by screening. Phylogenetic …

The C2 domain plays an important role in plant growth and development. We performed
genome-wide identification of SlC2 gene family members by bioinformatics, and predictive …

Citrus huanglongbing (HLB) is a devastating disease associated with Candidatus
Liberibacter asiaticus spp.(CLas), a bacterium restricted to the sieve tube system of the …

Apart from being a conduit for photoassimilate transport in plants, the phloem serves as a
pathway for transport of proteins and RNAs from sites of their synthesis to distant plant parts …

Members of the phloem protein 16 (PP16) gene family are induced by elicitors in rice and
the corresponding proteins from cucurbits, which display RNA binding and intercellular …
