However, graft compatibility limits combinations to closely related species, and the mechanism is poorly understood. We found that Nicotiana is capable of graft adhesion with a diverse range of angiosperms. Comparative transcriptomic analyses on graft combinations indicated that a subclade of \u03b2-1,4-glucanases secreted into the extracellular region facilitates cell wall reconstruction near the graft interface. Grafting was promoted by overexpression of the \u03b2-1,4-glucanase. Using Nicotiana stem as an interscion, we produced tomato fruits on rootstocks from other plant families. These findings demonstrate that the process of cell-cell adhesion is a potential target to enhance plant grafting techniques.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michitaka Notaguchi, Ken-Ichi Kurotani, Yoshikatsu Sato, Ryo Tabata, Yaichi Kawakatsu, Koji Okayasu, Yu Sawai, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/biochemistry.isc.chubu.ac.jp\/labo\/suzuki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/218"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/biochemistry.isc.chubu.ac.jp\/labo\/suzuki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/biochemistry.isc.chubu.ac.jp\/labo\/suzuki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/biochemistry.isc.chubu.ac.jp\/labo\/suzuki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/biochemistry.isc.chubu.ac.jp\/labo\/suzuki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=218"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/biochemistry.isc.chubu.ac.jp\/labo\/suzuki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/218\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/biochemistry.isc.chubu.ac.jp\/labo\/suzuki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=218"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/biochemistry.isc.chubu.ac.jp\/labo\/suzuki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=218"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/biochemistry.isc.chubu.ac.jp\/labo\/suzuki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=218"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
