A global analysis of transcription reveals two modes of Spt4/5 recruitment to archaeal RNA polymerase

A transcriptional analysis of Methanocaldococcus jannaschii identifies Spt4/5 as a general elongation factor in Archaea with two modes of recruitment to the RNA polymerase.

Downregulation of N-terminal acetylation triggers ABA-mediated drought responses in Arabidopsis

N-terminal acetylation is a common protein modification in eukaryotes. Here the authors show that in Arabidopsis, N-terminal acetylation is decreased by drought stress, that abundance of an N-terminal acetyltransferase is reduced by abscisic acid and that constitutive downregulation can confer drought resistance.

Glucosylation prevents plant defense activation in phloem-feeding insects

The whitefly Bemisia tabaci defends against plant glucosinolate toxins by serial addition of glucose moieties catalyzed by a pair of glycoside hydrolases, preventing toxin activation during feeding on the plant tissue.

Glucosinolate structural diversity shapes recruitment of a metabolic network of leaf-associated bacteria

In this study Unger et al. show how the structure of aliphatic glucosinolates, defense metabolites in Brassicaceae plants, controls recruitment of specific metabolic networks of leaf bacteria, shedding light on broader ecological roles of defenses.

Ecological factors influence balancing selection on leaf chemical profiles of a wildflower

Evidence for balancing selection acting on loci that control complex traits is limited. Here, the authors show evidence for past selection on chemical profile in a perennial wildflower by two ecological drivers, herbivory and drought, consistent with balancing selection on this trait.

The phytopathogenic fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum detoxifies plant glucosinolate hydrolysis products via an isothiocyanate hydrolase

Some plants produce toxic isothiocyanates that protect them against pathogens. Here, Chen et al. show that the plant pathogenic fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum converts isothiocyanates into non-toxic compounds via glutathione conjugation and, more effectively, via hydrolysis to amines using an isothiocyanate hydrolase.

Sugar transporters enable a leaf beetle to accumulate plant defense compounds

The herbivorous horseradish flea beetle sequesters plant toxins to defend against predators. Here the authors identify glucosinolate transporters expressed in the beetle Malpighian tubules and provide evidence that these reabsorb glucosinolates from the tubule lumen to prevent their loss by excretion.

Multiple glutathione-S-transferases detoxify diverse glucosinolate-based defenses of Brassicales plants in a generalist lepidopteran herbivore (Spodoptera littoralis)

A study shows how larvae from a generalist herbivore detoxify structurally diverse isothiocyanates from Brassicales plants using multiple glutathione-S-transferases, helping them to better tolerate glucosinolate-based plant defenses.

A light-dependent molecular link between competition cues and defence responses in plants

Arabidopsis plants try to escape shade or competitor proximity by growing faster. The authors identify sulfotransferase ST2a as a link between light perception and growth increase through inactivation of jasmonates.
