The FLOWERING LOCUS T-like genes from patchouli (Pogostemon cablin) antagonistically regulate flowering time.
Plant Physiol Biochem
February 2025
Flowering is crucial for the reproductive success of plants. Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin), a widely utilized medicinal and aromatic plant from the Lamiaceae family, exhibits rare flowering and fails to produce seeds, thereby posing a challenge for plant evolution and breeding improvement. However, the mechanism underlying flowering in patchouli has not been investigated.

Here, we report that Arabidopsis CHLOROPLAST AND NUCLEUS DUAL-LOCALIZED PROTEIN 1 (CND1) maintains genome stability in the chloroplast and the nucleus. CND1 localizes to both compartments, and complete loss of CND1 results in embryo lethality.

Article Synopsis
- N-methyladenosine (mA) modification is crucial for photosynthesis, particularly during high light stress in plants.
- Changes in mA modification levels of photosynthesis-related transcripts occur after exposure to high light stress, indicating its importance.
- Genetic inactivation of the mA writer VIRILIZER (VIR) leads to decreased photosynthetic activity and protein abundance, highlighting its role in promoting the stability and translation of key genes involved in photoprotection.
