Summary: By analyzing the cell wall proteins of tomato seedlings under salt stress, it was found that there were significant changes in the cell wall proteins of salt-tolerant and salt-sensitive tomato genotypes. Proteins associated with signal transduction and alterations to cell wall polysaccharides increased in response to salt stress in both genotypes. Additionally, there were different metabolic changes between the two genotypes in response to salt stress. The salt-tolerant genotype showed decreased Na+ accumulation and enhanced regulation of redox balance and cell wall lignification in response to salt stress.

Summary: The increased use and spread of nanoceria in commercial applications have raised concerns about its potential risks on living organisms. In this study, Pseudomonas aeruginosa san ai was used as a model organism to investigate the interaction between bacterial biomolecules and nanoceria. The findings revealed that nanoceria caused significant changes in the metabolism of P. aeruginosa san ai, resulting in the upregulation of proteins related to redox homeostasis, amino acid biosynthesis, and lipid catabolism. Additionally, the production of extracellular virulence factors, including pyocyanin and pyoverdine, was also observed to increase. Overall, the study highlights the powerful influence that nanoceria has on the vital functions of microorganisms.

Summary: This study reveals the response of C. ficifolia to FOC infection at the transcriptome and proteome levels, suggesting that FOC infection activates plant hormone signaling and transcription factors while suppressing wax biosynthesis and photosynthesis. The accumulation of oxidative-redox proteins also plays a significant role in C. ficifolia resistance to FOC.

Summary: The two-spotted spider mite is a serious pest in tomato and other crops. Biological control with the release of natural enemies has been an efficient method to control it, but not in tomato. Other biological control agents and plant strengtheners have the potential to suppress spider mite populations in tomato.

Summary: High temperature stress destroyed the cell membrane of Sargassum fusiforme, leading to differential expression of proteins mainly involved in glycolysis, nucleoside diphosphate metabolism, and carbohydrate catabolism. Proteomics analyses showed that proteins associated with synthesis, folding, degradation, photosynthesis, energy, and carbohydrate metabolism exhibited differential expression under high temperature stress.

Summary: The resilient response of tomato to the South America pinworm involves a combination of constitutive and induced defense mechanisms. The enhanced constitutive barrier in tolerant genotypes is attributed to factors such as increased density of trichomes and modulation of key transcription factors. These findings could be utilized to develop T. absoluta tolerant cultivars for more sustainable production.

Summary: Plants have developed a two-layered immune system consisting of pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) and effector-triggered immunity (ETI). Through integrative proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses of the tomato-Pseudomonas syringae (Pst) pathosystem, it was found that ETI response is stronger than PTI response. Protein abundance and phosphorylation changes revealed key regulators involved in signaling, oxidative stress, transport, cell remodeling, hormone signaling, and implicated potential markers for PTI and ETI.

Summary: Endogenous signaling compounds are important for plants to respond to harmful and beneficial organisms. The plant elicitor peptides (Peps) and the endogenous signaling polypeptide systemin play roles in defense responses against pathogens and herbivorous insects. This paper explores the similarities between Peps and systemin in tomato, and discusses the receptors involved. Future research directions for Pep signaling in solanaceous crops are suggested.

Summary: This study investigates the regulatory mechanism of carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) on tobacco callus growth at the protein level. Proteomic profiling reveals that CNPs enhance the growth of tobacco callus by affecting differentially expressed proteins located in mitochondria and involved in calcium-mediated signaling pathway.

Summary: In this study, the biochemical characteristics and expression levels of genes related to ethylene biosynthesis in the Colorless nonripening (Cnr) mutant were investigated. The proteomic changes during fruit ripening were also analyzed using quantitative proteomic analysis. The results showed that the Cnr fruit had lower lycopene content and soluble solid content compared to wild-type fruit. Additionally, the expression of genes involved in ethylene biosynthesis was downregulated or delayed in Cnr fruit. Furthermore, a large number of differentially expressed proteins were identified during different ripening stages. These findings lay the foundation for further exploring the regulatory mechanism of SlSPL-CNR in tomato fruit ripening.

Summary: This study investigated the plastome structural changes in three Korean Asarum species, revealing a unique tripartite structure due to the incorporation and duplication of the small single copy into the inverted repeat. Phylogenetic analysis based on 79 plastid protein-coding genes supported the monophyly of Korean Asarum species and demonstrated effectiveness in delineating some sections and species within Aristolochiaceae. Simple sequence repeats in the plastome were evaluated as potential molecular markers for species delimitation.

Summary: Polyploidy is an important evolutionary process in eukaryotes, particularly in flowering plants. Understanding how divergent genomes and their regulatory networks reconcile is vital for unraveling the role of polyploidy in plant evolution. This study compared the leaf transcriptomes of recently formed natural allotetraploids and their diploid parents, and found that there were significant differences in gene expression between the old and new polyploids. Some loci showed novel expression bias patterns in the newly formed polyploids, indicating ongoing evolutionary processes.
