Chromatin dynamics and subnuclear gene positioning for transcriptional regulation
Curr Opin Plant Biol. 2023 Aug 8;75:102431. doi: 10.1016/j.pbi.2023.102431. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPlants have been found to exhibit diverse characteristics and functions of chromatin organization, showing both similarities and differences to animals. It is becoming clear how chromatin organization is linked to transcriptional regulation in response to environmental stresses. Regulation of specific chromatin positions in the nuclear space is important for transcription, and the mechanisms that enable such chromatin dynamics are gradually being unveiled. Genes move between subdomains responsible for transcriptional a...

Towards integrative plant pathology
Curr Opin Plant Biol. 2023 Aug 3;75:102430. doi: 10.1016/j.pbi.2023.102430. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe field of plant pathology has revealed many of the mechanisms underlying the arms race, providing crucial knowledge and genetic resources for improving plant health. Although the host-microbe interaction seemingly favors rapidly evolving pathogens, it has also generated a vast evolutionary history of largely unexplored plant immunodiversity. We review studies that characterize the scope and distribution of genetic and ecological diversity in model and non-model systems with specific reference to pathogen effector di...

Epigenetic processes in plant stress priming: Open questions and new approaches
Curr Opin Plant Biol. 2023 Jul 29;75:102432. doi: 10.1016/j.pbi.2023.102432. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPriming reflects the capacity of plants to memorise environmental stress experience and improve their response to recurring stress. Epigenetic modifications in DNA and associated histone proteins may carry short-term and long-term memory in the same plant or mediate transgenerational effects, but the evidence is still largely circumstantial. New experimental tools now enable scientists to perform targeted manipulations that either prevent or generate a particular epigenetic modification in a particular location of the...

How will I recognize you? Insights into endocytic cargo recognition in plants
Curr Opin Plant Biol. 2023 Jul 29;75:102429. doi: 10.1016/j.pbi.2023.102429. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe plasma membrane (PM) houses a wide variety of proteins, facilitating interactions between the cell and its surroundings. Perception of external stimuli leads to selective internalization of membrane proteins via endocytosis. A multitude of endocytic signals affect protein internalization; however, their coordination and the exact mechanism of their recognition still remain elusive. In this review, we summarized the up-to-date knowledge of different internalization signals in PM cargo proteins and their involvement...
