Monocot-specific miR528 act as the post-transcriptional regulator of strigolactone signaling via Dwarf 3 in rice

This study identifies miR528 as a monocot-specific miRNA that regulates strigolactone signaling in rice by post-transcriptionally targeting OsD3, affecting plant growth and stress responses.

Ly6G+Granulocytes-derived IL-17 limits protective host responses and promotes tuberculosis pathogenesis

This study identifies IL-17 and COX2 as negative regulators of protective immunity in tuberculosis, showing that Ly6G+ granulocytes are a major source of IL-17 and their inhibition reduces bacterial burden and pathology.

Investigations on regulation of miRNAs in rice reveal cyt signal transduction regulated miRNAs

This study identifies [Ca2+]cyt-regulated miRNAs in rice, showing their involvement in drought response and ABA signaling through calmodulins and CAMTAs.

A Drug-free, Self-destruction Strategy to Combat Bacterial Infections by Using the Intrinsically formed Magnetic Nanoparticles in Bacterial Pathogens

This paper demonstrates a drug-free strategy using magnetic nanoparticles formed by bacteria to combat infections, showing significant bacterial reduction with an alternating magnetic field.

The vesicular trafficking system component MIN7 is required for minimizing Fusarium graminearum infection

Disruption of AtMin7 in Arabidopsis and silencing of TaMin7 in wheat increases susceptibility to Fusarium graminearum.
