📝 The genetic prison that traps a ghost plant 🧵

Why would you make leaves that are all cost and no benefit? A ghost plant puzzle is solved.

#Botany #PlantScience 🧪 #InBrief (1/10)

A cluster of ghostly white Monotropastrum humile plants growing on a fallen log in a forest. The plants are entirely pale white with no green colouration, showing their non-photosynthetic nature. Multiple individual plants with drooping bell-shaped flowers are grouped together, surrounded by small white scale leaves along their stems. The background shows a soft, blurred forest setting with dappled light filtering through trees, creating circular bokeh effects in green and blue tones.

Despite being full of blooms, this book of floral illustrations marks an autumn in aesthetic history: it was composed during “‘the last flowering’ of northern European manuscript illumination in the medieval tradition”, write curators at the MET. Created in the workshop of the Master of Claude de France, one of the most renowned ateliers in Tours during the early sixteenth century, it takes the form of a model book — and indeed several subsequent commissions linked to Queen Claude drew inspiration from this work.

The image features a detailed illustration of a blue dragonfly perched on a green stem of a flower. The dragonfly has a long, slender body with a blue and green coloration, and its wings are transparent with a delicate pattern. The flower has white petals with a red edge and a yellow center, resembling a daisy. There are three flowers in total, with one fully bloomed, one partially bloomed, and one in bud form. The background is a plain, off-white color, which contrasts with the vibrant colors of the dragonfly and flowers. The illustration is done in a style that suggests it could be from a natural history book or a botanical illustration, with careful attention to the details of the insects and plants.

Synthetic biology-based #biofortification of crop plants may be the key to addressing hidden #hunger caused by chronic #micronutrient deficiencies, which affect billions of people. Learn more in this #OpenAccess mini-review!

Plant synthetic biology-based strategies for biofortification: (A) Overview of the vitamin B1 de novo biosynthesis pathway in plants. (B) The strategy of overexpression of endogenous biosynthetic genes. (C) The strategy of introduction of heterologous biosynthetic pathways. (D) The strategy of expression of nutrient-specific transporters. (E) The “suicide” catalytic mechanism of THI1 in higher plants and other eukaryotes, in which its cysteine residue is irreversibly consumed, resulting in enzyme inactivation after a single turnover. (F) The strategy of optimization of transcriptional regulation via transcription factor or promoter engineering. (G) The strategy of protein (directed) evolution.

Cover of the June 2025 issue (Volume 67, Issue 6) of the Journal of Integrative Plant Biology. The cover features a bright orange citrus fruit, cut in half transversely to reveal stylized representations of meiosis in each segment. White citrus flowers surround the fruit, and strands of DNA with notations indicating deletions run between the two halves. Cover designed by Yan-Jie Fan, Wen-Wu Guo and Xiao-Meng Wu.

A close-up of a green Purple Pitcher Plant leaf with intricate red veining. An ant is crawling on the leaf's surface, highlighting the plant's carnivorous nature. Multiple leaves of the plant are visible in the background.

Rising sea levels and drought are making soil saltier, threatening crop yields worldwide. New AraRoot model identifies genetic targets to develop salt-resistant plants, offering hope for food security in challenging environments.

A close-up, top-down view of a developing pine cone amidst long, radiating green pine needles. The new cone is a cluster of reddish-brown, textured nubs at the base, tapering upwards into a lighter, spiky crown, all surrounded by the sharp, green foliage of the pine tree.

Another shot of the evolutionary lab in Tikaboo Valley, CA, where Yucca brevifolia (joshua tree) is adapting to climate change. The bushy western- & the thin eastern variety are hybridizing here & moving north. Y. brevifolia's pollinator is Tegeticula synthetica (yucca moth) & 13k years ago its seeds were distributed far & wide by Nothrotheriops shastensis (giant Shasta ground sloth). Now, tiny animals distribute the seeds locally.
