An antagonistic regulatory module consisting of LfiRAV7 and LfiGI is uncovered, which not only revealed a previously uncharacterized genetic mechanism underlying the regulation of endogenous hormone homeostasis and morphogenesis in woody plants, but also offered key candidate targets for directed creation of ideal plant architecture in woody ornamental species.
Plant height is an important agronomic characteristic that influences crop productivity and overall plant structure. Elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying stem elongation in eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is essential for advancing crop improvement. In this study, we identified a semi-dwarf eggplant mutant,...

Plasmodiophora brassicae, the causal agent of clubroot disease, actively manipulates host hormone pathways to promote infection. Previous studies identified PbGH3 as a putative GH3-like effector with in vitro auxin-conjugating activity, although its biological function in planta was investigated but remained unresolved...
The key role of ClARF4 is revealed in regulating plant height in watermelon, and important insights are provided into the function of chloroplast–nucleus signaling crosstalk in plant architecture establishment by identifying the interaction between ClARF4 and the chloroplast protein ClPetC in the nucleus.

INTRODUCTION
Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis (AMS) is a universal mutualism in natural ecosystems, governed by a complex transcriptional network. Although ethylene response factors (ERFs) are implicated in regulating AMS, their underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood.
OBJECTIVE
This study aims to in...
