“…Transcription factors are essential for the control of gene expression in plant developmental processes, such as leaf and floral development ( McGarry et al, 2016 ; Zhang et al, 2016 ; Cheng et al, 2021 ), fiber elongation ( Pei, 2015 ; Sun et al, 2019 ), biotic and abiotic stress responses ( Shah et al, 2013 ; Yang et al, 2017 ), and hormone regulation ( Li et al, 2014 ; Fiene et al, 2017 ). KNOTTED1 - like homeobox ( KNOX ) genes belong to the three-amino-acid-loop-extension (TALE) superfamily and encode KNOX proteins with KNOXI, KNOXII, ELK, and homeobox KN binding domains ( Bhatt et al, 2004 ).…”

The KNOX (KNOTTED1-like homeobox) transcription factors play an important role in leaf, shoot apical meristem and seed development and respond to biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study, we analyzed the diversity and evolutionary history of the KNOX gene family in the genome of tetraploid cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). Forty-four putative KNOX genes were identified. All KNOX genes from seven higher plant species were classified into KNOXI, KNOXII, and KNATM clades based on a phylogenetic analysis. Chromosomal localization and collinearity analysis suggested that whole-genome duplication and a polyploidization event contributed to the expansion of the cotton KNOX gene family. Analyses of expression profiles revealed that the GhKNOX genes likely responded to diverse stresses and were involved in cotton growth developmental processes. Silencing of GhKNOX2 enhanced the salt tolerance of cotton seedlings, whereas silencing of GhKNOX10 and GhKNOX14 reduced seedling tolerance to salt stress. Silencing of GhSTM3 influenced the cotton flowering time and plant development. These findings clarify the evolution of the cotton KNOX gene family and provide a foundation for future functional studies of KNOX proteins in cotton growth and development and response to abiotic stresses.

“…Protein phosphorylation is a fundamental process of cell signal transduction, in which extracellular signals are amplified and propagated by a cascade of protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation events (Fiene et al, 2017). GRMZM2G149277 encodes a leucine-rich repeat receptor-like protein kinase family protein, which is reported to actively function in various physiological processes, such as plant growth and development (Kai et al, 2010;Feng et al, 2014).…”

Evolution of insect resistance is the primary threat to the long‐term efficacy of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) transgene technologies. Plants have a deeply conserved defence response to pests: Jasmonic acid (JA) hormone signalling mediated by transcriptional repressors called JASMONATE‐ZIM‐DOMAIN/JAZ. JAZs normally limit expression of plant defence pathways, promoting assimilate partitioning towards growth and reproduction, by their carboxyl terminal Jas motif that antagonises MYeloCytomatosis (MYC) master transcription factor activities. Deletion, alternative splicing/intron retention, or disruption of the Jas motif results in JA insensitivity and increased resistance to pathogens including arthropod herbivores, for example by production of secondary metabolites and new leaves with higher trichome density. JA‐mediated trichome initiation and elongation also impact cotton fibre production. Since its release in 2017, the third‐generation stacked commercial Bt insecticidal Vip3A protein traits are increasingly under severe pressure for evolution of Helicoverpa zea (bollworm) resistance. Regional differences in efficacy of Bollgard ® 3 and WideStrike ® 3 against lepidopteran pests and increasing pesticide use are emerging issues. Future transgenic field control failures from bollworm infestations and incursions of Helicoverpa armigera from Central America are likely in the U.S. Cotton Belt. In this systematic primer on the problem, we take a conceptual approach to consider JAZ genes as means to leverage ‘internal’ host‐derived herbivore resistance in cotton. We consider the genetic redundancy and pleiotropic nature of JAZ master regulators on tissue‐specific growth, development, crosstalk with hormonal and small RNA pathways as nodes in networks, and limitations of JAZ efficacy due to fitness costs/growth trade‐offs versus prospects for enhancing resistance networks to orchestrate transgressive segregation (generation of extreme phenotypes in breeding progeny not seen in parental lines).
