TL;DR

Results indicate that NtWHY1 protein acts as a cold-induced negative regulator that attenuates cold tolerance in tobacco by repressing flavonoid biosynthesis and compromising antioxidant capacity, providing new insights into transcription factor-mediated modulation of secondary metabolism under abiotic stress.

Transcription factor NtELF3 promotes the polyphenol accumulation by targeting NtFLS-1 and NtCHIL-2 genes in tobacco.

It is found that the tobacco transcription factor EARLY FLOWERING 3 (NtELF3), which is highly expressed in tobacco leaves, positively regulates the accumulation of chlorogenic acid, neochlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, rutin, scopoletin, and total polyphenols in tobacco middle leaves.

MdXERICO negatively regulates salt tolerance in apple through ubiquitination and degradation of MdJAZ10.

A novel MdXERICO-MdJAZ10 regulatory module is uncovered, in which MdXERICO negatively modulates apple salt tolerance by targeting MdJAZ10 for ubiquitin-dependent degradation, thereby suppressing the expression of ion-transport-related genes and disrupting sodium-potassium balance.
