Transcriptomic and physiological analyses reveal that cytokinin is involved in the compound leaf development of alfalfa by Hongyao Mei, Jiajun Yan, Xuexin Jia, Weilin Wang, Shuangshuang Li, Ruiqi Sun, Hongjiao Jiang, Lijun Xie, Chuanen Zhou, Shiqie Bai, Lu Han

“…The agronomic traits of the Chuancao No.7 including the leaf blade area, leaf/stem ratio, total fresh weight, and dry weight showed significant increases compared to those of the wild-type. Analyses of forage quality traits indicated significant differences in crude protein (CP), acid detergent fiber (ADF), crude fat (CF), water-soluble sugars (WSS), carbon content, ash composition content, and phosphorus content between Chuancao No.7 alfalfa and wild-type. …”

AozC, a zn(II)2Cys6 transcription factor, negatively regulates salt tolerance in Aspergillus oryzae by controlling fatty acid biosynthesis by Wenbin Yu, Zeying Zhao, Yufei Zhang, Yayi Tu, Bin He

“…Results Overexpression of AozC decreased growth rates in the presence of salt, while its knockdown enhanced growth, the number of spores, and biomass, particularly under conditions of 15% salt concentration, doubling these metrics compared to the wild type. Conversely, the knockdown of AozC via RNA interference significantly enhanced spore density and dry biomass, particularly under 15% salt stress, where these parameters were markedly improved over the wild type strain. …”
