1. Plant molecular responses to potato virus Y : a continuum of outcomes from sensitivity and tolerance to resistanceŠpela Baebler, Anna Coll Rius, Kristina Gruden, 2020, review article Abstract: Potato virus Y (PVY) is the most economically important virus affecting potato production. PVY manipulates the plant cell machinery in order to successfully complete the infecting cycle. On the other side, the plant activates a sophisticated multilayer immune defense response to combat viral infection. The balance between these mechanisms, depending on the plant genotype and environment, results in a specific outcome that can be resistance, sensitivity, or tolerance. In this review, we summarize and compare the current knowledge on molecular events, leading to different phenotypic outcomes in response to PVY and try to link them with the known molecular mechanisms.

2. Organelles and phytohormones : a network of interactions in plant stress responsesAndras Bittner, Agata Cieśla, Kristina Gruden, Tjaša Lukan, Sakil Mahmud, Markus Teige, Ute Vothknecht, Bernhard Wurzinger, 2022, review article Abstract: Phytohormones are major signaling components that contribute to nearly all aspects of plant life. They constitute an interconnected communication network to fine-tune growth and development in response to the ever-changing environment. To this end, they have to coordinate with other signaling components, such as reactive oxygen species and calcium signals. On the one hand, the two endosymbiotic organelles, plastids and mitochondria, control various aspects of phytohormone signaling and harbor important steps of hormone precursor biosynthesis. On the other hand, phytohormones have feedback actions on organellar functions. In addition, organelles and phytohormones often act in parallel in a coordinated matter to regulate cellular functions. Therefore, linking organelle functions with increasing knowledge of phytohormone biosynthesis, perception, and signaling will reveal new aspects of plant stress tolerance. In this review, we highlight recent work on organelle–phytohormone interactions focusing on the major stress-related hormones abscisic acid, jasmonates, salicylic acid, and ethylene. Keywords: abscisic acid (ABA), chloroplast, ethylene, mitochondria, jasmonates, plant organelles, phytohormones, salicylic acid (SA), plastids, stress signaling, retrograde signaling Published in DiRROS: 05.08.2024; Views: 42; Downloads: 70 Full text (2,77 MB) This document has many files!

3. Stress knowledge map : a knowledge graph resource for systems biology analysis of plant stress responsesCarissa Bleker, Živa Ramšak, Andras Bittner, Vid Podpečan, Maja Zagorščak, Bernhard Wurzinger, Špela Baebler, Marko Petek, Maja Križnik, Anže Županič, Kristina Gruden, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: Stress Knowledge Map (SKM; https://skm.nib.si) is a publicly available resource containing two complementary knowledge graphs that describe the current knowledge of biochemical, signaling, and regulatory molecular interactions in plants: a highly curated model of plant stress signaling (PSS; 543 reactions) and a large comprehensive knowledge network (488 390 interactions). Both were constructed by domain experts through systematic curation of diverse literature and database resources. SKM provides a single entry point for investigations of plant stress response and related growth trade-offs, as well as interactive explorations of current knowledge. PSS is also formulated as a qualitative and quantitative model for systems biology and thus represents a starting point for a plant digital twin. Here, we describe the features of SKM and show, through two case studies, how it can be used for complex analyses, including systematic hypothesis generation and design of validation experiments, or to gain new insights into experimental observations in plant biology.
