Fruit shape is an important agronomical trait that influences consumer preference. Despite the dramatic variations in fruit shape among tomato germplasms, the underlying genes and regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we found that knockout of the transcription factor SlBPC1 leads to elongated fruits, r...

Ascorbic acid (AsA) determines fruit nutritional quality and antioxidant capacity in tomato, but available genetic resources for its improvement are limited. Here, we integrated natural variation analysis with upstream open reading frames (uORFs) editing to identify and engineer determinants of AsA accumulation. A natu...
It is demonstrated that Pto, the first disease-resistance gene conferring recognition of a specific pathogen, phosphorylates Pst type III effector AvrPtoB at serine 335 site, which triggers the dissociation of the Prf immune complex, enhancing immune signaling and reducing bacterial pathogenicity.
