The R2R3-MYB transcription factor ScMYB20 negatively regulates drought and salt tolerance through a dual-repression of ScCHALCONE SYNTHASE-1 (ScCHS1)-mediated flavonoid biosynthesis in the desert moss Syntrichia caninervis.

TL;DR
A dual-repression module is defined (ScMYB20-ScTTG1-ScCHS1) that fine-tunes flavonoid flux under abiotic stress, and provide evolutionary and mechanistic insights into how R2R3-MYB repressors evolved to balance metabolic investment and stress survival in land plants.
These findings provide key insights into the role of SnRK gene family in mangrove adaptation to saline intertidal habitat, and suggest AmSnRK2.7-AmENO2 module plays a role in salt tolerance.

Strigolactones (SLs) are a class of plant hormones with multifaceted roles in rice (Oryza sativa L.) growth and development. The F-box protein DWARF3 (D3) is a core component of the SL signalling pathway, coupling SL perception to the downstream responses. However, whether D3 also contributes to rice immunity and how i...

Silique dehiscence is an important agronomic trait in oilseed Brassicaceae crops, including canola, mustard, and camelina, yet its molecular regulation remains incompletely understood. Here, we show that four R2R3-MYB subgroup 13 transcription factors-MYB55, MYB61, MYB50, and MYB86-function redundantly to regulate sili...

A MeJA-responsive DoMYB41-DoMYC2 cascade that iteratively activates DoTIP1–1 expression and promotes the biosynthesis of GMs, thereby enhancing salinity tolerance in D. officinale is uncovered and provides genetic targets for salinity tolerance in breeding programs for this horticultural orchid.
Findings identify MYB21 as a JA-responsive regulator of growth and defense in seedlings and leaves, extending its function beyond reproductive development.
