E3 ubiquitin ligases of the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) mediate recognition of
substrates and later transfer the ubiquitin (Ub). They are the most expanded components of …

Ascochyta blight of lentil is an important fungal disease in many lentil-producing regions of
the world causing major yield and grain quality losses. Quick shifts in aggressiveness of the …

Botrytis cinerea, a broad host-range necrotrophic (BHN) phytopathogen, establishes
compatible interactions with hosts by deploying multigene infection strategies, rendering …

Ubiquitination is a post-translational regulatory mechanism that controls a variety of
biological processes in plants. The E3 ligases confer specificity by recognizing target …

Ubiquitin and similar proteins, such as SUMO, are utilized by plants to modify target proteins
to rapidly change their stability and activity in cells. This review will provide an overview of …

Wild tomato germplasm is a valuable resource for improving biotic and abiotic stresses in
tomato breeding. The HVA22 is widely present in eukaryotes and involved in growth and …

Plants rely on a sophisticated innate immune system to recognize pathogens and defend
against pathogen attacks. The immune system must be precisely regulated to be capable of …

Abstract Background The lace plant (Aponogeton madagascariensis) is an aquatic monocot
that develops leaves with uniquely formed perforations through the use of a developmentally …

In flowering plants, DELLA proteins (DELLAs) have emerged as the master transcriptional
regulators that are responsible for repressing all aspects of gibberellin (GA)‐dependent …

Plant defenses aimed at necrotrophic pathogens appear to be genetically complex. Despite
the apparent lack of a specific recognition of such necrotrophs by products of major R genes …
