#TomatoThursday

🍅Wait, should it be #TomatoThursday or #ThomatoThursday? In this week's feature, Dong et al. reveal that SlBEL11 regulates #flavonoid biosynthesis, fine-tuning #auxin efflux to prevent premature #fruit drop. https://doi.org/10.1111/jipb.13627

Diagrams comparing the processes controlling fruit abscission in WT and SlBEL11- RNAi tomato plants, illustrating that SlBEL11 regulates flavonoid biosynthesis, thus fine-tuning auxin efflux to prevent premature fruit drop.

We're making🍅#TomatoThursday a thing🍅who's with us?!
🍅Kicking it off with An et al. who report that #brassinosteroid signaling 🍅positively regulates #ABA biosynthesis in response to chilling stress in #tomato.🍅

Imaging and gels illustrate that overexpression of the BR biosynthesis gene DWARF (DWF) or the key BR signaling gene BRASSINAZOLE-RESISTANT1 (BZR1) increases ABA levels in response to chilling stress via positively regulating the expression of the ABA biosynthesis gene 9-CIS-EPOXYCAROTENOID DIOXYGENASE1 (NCED1). BR-induced chilling tolerance was mostly dependent on ABA.
