As field crops are likely to be challenged by multiple pathogens during their development, the investigation of broad-spectrum resistance in host is great interest for crop genetic enhancement. In this study, we attempted address question adopting a weighed gene co-expression approach study temporal transcriptome dynamics resistant and susceptible recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from an intraspecific Len ervoides cross infection process with either necrotrophic Ascochyta lentis or Stemphylium botryosum, hemibiotrophic pathogen Colletotrichum lentis. By comparing networks RILs, seven network module pairs were found possess high correlation coefficients (R > 0.70) large number overlapping genes (n 100). The conserved co-regulation these involved plant cell wall synthesis, division, cytoskeleton organization, protein ubiquitin related processes appeared common disease responses against pathogens. On other hand, also identified eight modules low between susceptibility networks. Among those, stronger R-genes small RNA hosts may enhancing L. A. lentis, C.

Dramatic shifts in global climate have intensified abiotic and biotic stress faced by plants. Plant microRNAs (miRNAs)—20–24 nucleotide non-coding RNA molecules—form a key regulatory system of plant gene expression; playing crucial roles growth; development; defense against stress. Moreover, they participate cross-kingdom communication. This communication encompasses interactions with other plants, microorganisms, insect species, collectively exerting profound influence on the agronomic traits crops. article comprehensively reviews biosynthesis miRNAs explores their impact growth, development, resistance through endogenous, non-transboundary mechanisms. Furthermore, this review delves into effects pests. It proceeds to specifically discuss design modification strategies for artificial (amiRNAs), as well protection transport exosome-like nanovesicles (ELNVs), expanding potential applications crop breeding. Finally, current limitations associated harnessing are addressed, utilization synthetic biology is proposed facilitate heterologous expression large-scale production miRNAs. novel approach suggests plant-based solution address future biosafety concerns agriculture.

Given the negative fitness effects that pathogens impose on their hosts, benefits of resistance should be universal. However, there is marked variation across plant species in number nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptors, which form a cornerstone defense. The growth-defense trade-off hypothesis predicts costs associated with defense investment to generate these traits. Our analysis comparing features intracellular immune-receptor repertoires trait data 187 shows wild plants, size molecular repertoire correlates negatively growth. By contrast, we do not find evidence for agricultural plants. cross-species approach highlights central role shaping ecological and its sensitivity domestication.

RNA interference (RNAi) is a biotechnological tool used for gene silencing in plants, with both endogenous and exogenous applications. Endogenous approaches, such as host-induced (HIGS), involve genetically modified (GM) while methods include spray-induced (SIGS). The RNAi mechanism hinges on the introduction of double-stranded (dsRNA), which processed into short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that degrade specific messenger (mRNAs). However, unintended effects non-target organisms GM plants are concern due to sequence homologies or siRNA-induced epigenetic changes. Regulatory bodies EPA EFSA emphasize need comprehensive risk assessments. Detecting complex, often relying bioinformatic tools untargeted analyses like transcriptomics metabolomics, though these require extensive genomic data. This review aims classify mechanisms induced by from different sources identify technologies can be detect effects. In addition, practical case studies summarized discussed previously have been investigated. Current literature limited but suggests relatively specific, few observed crops. further needed fully understand mitigate potential risks, particularly those related transcriptional (TGS) mechanisms, less predictable than post-transcriptional (PTGS).
