[PMID: 38921404 PMCID: PMC11205084 DOI: 10.3390/jof10060418] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 05/29/2024] [Accepted: 06/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Gibberellic acid (GA3) is a tetracyclic diterpenoid carboxylic acid synthesized by the secondary metabolism of Fusarium fujikuroi. This phytohormone is widely studied due to the advantages it offers as a plant growth regulator, such as growth stimulation, senescence delay, flowering induction, increased fruit size, and defense against abiotic or biotic stress, which improve the quality and yield of crops. Therefore, GA3 has been considered as an innovative strategy to improve agricultural production. However, the yields obtained at large scale are insufficient for the current market demand. This low productivity is attributed to the lack of adequate parameters to optimize the fermentation process, as well as the complexity of its regulation. Therefore, this article describes the latest advances for potentializing the GA3 production process, including an analysis of its origins from crops, the benefits of its application, the related biosynthetic metabolism, the maximum yields achieved from production processes, and their association with genetic engineering techniques for GA3 producers. This work provides a new perspective on the critical points of the production process, in order to overcome the limits surrounding this modern line of bioengineering.

Abstract
New systems for agrochemical delivery in plants will foster precise agricultural practices and provide new tools to study plants and design crop traits, as standard spray methods suffer from elevated loss and limited access to remote plant tissues. Silk-based microneedles can circumvent these limitations by deploying a known amount of payloads directly in plants' deep tissues. However, plant response to microneedles' application and microneedles' efficacy in deploying physiologically relevant biomolecules are unknown. Here, it is shown that gene expression associated with Arabidopsis thaliana wounding response decreases within 24 h post microneedles' application. Additionally, microinjection of gibberellic acid (GA3 ) in A. thaliana mutant ft-10 provides a more effective and efficient mean than spray to activate GA3 pathways, accelerating bolting and inhibiting flower formation. Microneedle efficacy in delivering GA3 is also observed in several monocot and dicot crop species, i.e., tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), lettuce (Lactuca sativa), spinach (Spinacia oleracea), rice (Oryza Sativa), maize (Zea mays), barley (Hordeum vulgare), and soybean (Glycine max). The wide range of plants that can be successfully targeted with microinjectors opens the doors to their use in plant science and agriculture.

Abstract
Soil microbes promote plant growth through several mechanisms such as secretion of chemical compounds including plant growth hormones. Among the phytohormones, auxins, ethylene, cytokinins, abscisic acid and gibberellins are the best understood compounds. Gibberellins were first isolated in 1935 from the fungus Gibberella fujikuroi and are synthesized by several soil microbes. The effect of gibberellins on plant growth and development has been studied, as has the biosynthesis pathways, enzymes, genes and their regulation. This review revisits the history of gibberellin research highlighting microbial gibberellins and their effects on plant health with an emphasis on the early discoveries and current advances that can find vital applications in agricultural practices.

Abstract
Phytohormones are the main regulatory molecules of core signalling networks associated with plant life cycle regulation. Manipulation of hormone signalling cascade enables the control over physiological traits of plant, which has major applications in field of agriculture and food sustainability. Hence, stable analogues of these hormones are long sought after and many of them are currently known, but the quest for more effective, stable and economically viable analogues is still going on. This search has been further strengthened by the identification of the components of signalling cascade such as receptors, downstream cascade members and transcription factors. Furthermore, many proteins of phytohormone cascades are available in crystallized forms. Such crystallized structures can provide the basis for identification of novel interacting compounds using in silico approach. Plenty of computational tools and bioinformatics software are now available that can aid in this process. Here, the metadata of all the major phytohormone signalling cascades are presented along with discussion on major protein-ligand interactions and protein components that may act as a potential target for manipulation of phytohormone signalling cascade. Furthermore, structural aspects of phytohormones and their known analogues are also discussed that can provide the basis for the synthesis of novel analogues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of exo-16,17-dihydro-gibberellin A5-13-acetate (DHGA5 ) in agriculture has been limited by its low synthetic yield. This study was aimed at optimizing the synthetic route of DHGA5 , designing and synthesizing new derivatives with strong plant growth inhibitory activities. RESULTS Previous synthetic methods were replaced with a shorter, milder and faster reaction route with higher yield (76.3%) of DHGA5 . Based on this novel route, a series of new derivatives were designed and synthesized using DHGA5 as a lead compound and characterized and evaluated for biological activities in Arabidopsis thaliana. Among the 15 tested derivatives, compound 14j showed a lower medium inhibition concentration (IC50 , 73 μm) in Arabidopsis than that of DHGA5 (91 μm). Gibberellin deficient mutant assay further revealed that 14j had very different activities compared to DHGA5 as it specifically inhibits gibberellin biosynthetic pathways. In addition, 14j does not influence the interaction between gibberellin receptors (GID1) and the master growth repressor (RGA) based on yeast two-hybrid assay. CONCLUSION The optimized synthetic route provides a promising method for large-scale preparation of DHGA5 . Our biological assays indicate that 14j likely acts on gibberellin signaling elements other than GID1. These results indicate that novel plant growth regulators can be developed. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Computer-aided drug design has advanced by leaps and bounds, and has been widely used in various fields, and especially in the field of drug discovery. Although the crystal structure of the gibberellin (GA) receptor GID1A had been reported in previous studies, there is still a lack of designs of gibberellin functional analogue based GID1A. In the present study, a series of 30 thiourea derivatives were designed, synthesized and biologically assayed. The results suggested that the synthetic compounds had good GA-like activities. Furthermore, the structure-activity relationship of the synthetic compounds was discussed, and the dynamic simulation and docking study revealed the binding properties of the GID1A receptor and compounds Y1, Y11, and Y21.
