The AcLFYL1‐AcCSE module enhances kiwifruit resistance to Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae by regulating cell density and lignin biosynthesis Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae causes destructive kiwifruit canker. Resistant kiwifruit shows higher lignin and cell density. AcLFYL1 directly activates AcCSE to promote lignin biosynthesis and ....

🥝 SURPRISING FIND: #Kiwifruit LEAFY genes sculpt flowers but DON'T control flowering time

🔬 Two AcLFY genes regulate:
✓ Flower organ development (petals, stamens)
✓ Plant architecture
✗ Flowering time (unlike other plants!)

#CRISPR double #knockout → severe flower defects, poor #pollination

From my Valentine's Day flash.
We'll add more to it soon!
