The StJAZ1-Like-StPIF02-StPIN3 Module Regulates Shoot and Tuber Apical Dominance in Potato.

Plant, cell & environment | 2026-Aug-13

This study identifies a molecular module consisting of StJAZ1-Like, StPIF02, and StPIN3 that regulates shoot and tuber apical dominance in potato. The findings elucidate the genetic mechanisms controlling branching and sprouting, which are key traits for potato cultivation and storage.

Engineering an effector-targeted genetically encoded degrader to enhance plant resistance against Phytophthora pathogens.

Plant communications | 2026-Aug-14

The study develops a genetically encoded chimeric protein degrader (AIM-REBT) that targets Phytophthora RXLR effectors for autophagic degradation. Stable expression of this degrader in potato plants confers robust resistance against Phytophthora pathogens without causing growth defects, offering a novel strategy for engineering disease resistance.

W/O/W Emulsions as a Strategy to Preserve NADES-Derived Annatto Carotenoids and Enhance the Functional Properties of Potato Starch-Based Active Packaging Films.

ACS omega | 2026-Aug-11

This study investigates the incorporation of a double emulsion containing annatto seed extract into potato starch-based films to develop active biodegradable packaging. The resulting films exhibited significantly improved moisture resistance, water vapor permeability, UV-vis barrier properties, and antioxidant activity while maintaining structural integrity.
