Attract or Defend: The CYP-associated Versatility of Terpenoids
Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefFloral scent, a blend of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), is a communication signal central to plant interactions. For example, VOCs attract pollinators when flowers are opened (Muhleman et al., 2015).
However, some plants do not cross-pollinate and depend less on VOCs. Flowers are fragile structures…

Arabidopsis OR Represses the Greening of Cotyledons while It Is in the Nucleus
Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In a NutshellSun et al. showed that OR interacts with TCP14 in the nucleus of dark-germinated seedlings and reduces chlorophyll biosynthesis, thylakoid membrane development and expression of EARLY LIGHT-INDUCIBLE PROTEINS, and that subsequent illumination relieves this repression.

You Are What You Eat: An ATG1-Independent Path to Autophagy
Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefFixed carbon derived from photosynthates serves critical roles as both a chemical energy reservoir and a building block for anabolic processes. Environmental constraints that place limitations on a plant’s fixed-carbon economy, such as prolonged darkness and photosynthetic stress, can therefore be…
