Proteome and Interactome Linked to Metabolism, Genetic Information Processing, and Abiotic Stress in Gametophytes of Two Woodferns [PDF]
Ferns and lycophytes have received scant molecular attention in comparison to angiosperms. The advent of high-throughput technologies allowed an advance towards a greater knowledge of their elusive genomes.

Malaria is an infectious disease that affects close to half a million individuals every year and Plasmodium falciparum is a major cause of malaria. The treatment of this disease could be done effectively if the essential enzymes of this parasite are specifically targeted.

The dual role of LESION SIMULATING DISEASE 1 as a condition-dependent scaffold protein and transcription regulator [PDF]
Since its discovery over two decades ago as an important cell death regulator in Arabidopsis thaliana, the role of LESION SIMULATING DISEASE 1 (LSD1) has been studied intensively within both biotic and abiotic stress responses as well as with respect to ...

When the lights go out: the evolutionary fate of free‐living colorless green algae
Summary The endosymbiotic origin of plastids was a launching point for eukaryotic evolution. The autotrophic abilities bestowed by plastids are responsible for much of the eukaryotic diversity we observe today. But despite its many advantages, photosynthesis has been lost numerous times and in disparate lineages throughout eukaryote evolution.

Selection of glyphosate resistance in Amaranthus tuberculatus (Mq ex DC) J.D. Sauer and potential for transfer of glyphosate resistance in Conyza [PDF]
Iowa farmers rely on glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine) resistant crops for weed management in row crops. Inconsistent glyphosate control was reported in common waterhemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus (Mq.

Mutualist-Provisioned Resources Impact Vector Competency [PDF]
Many symbionts supplement their host’s diet with essential nutrients. However, whether these nutrients also enhance parasitism is unknown. In this study, we investigated whether folate (vitamin B9) production by the tsetse fly (Glossina spp.) essential ...

Selection for Resistance to a Glyphosate-Containing Herbicide in Salmonella enterica Does Not Result in a Sustained Activation of the Tolerance Response or Increased Cross-Tolerance and Cross-Resistance to Clinically Important Antibiotics [PDF]
Evolution of bacterial tolerance to antimicrobials precedes evolution of resistance and may result in cross-tolerance, cross-resistance, or collateral sensitivity to other antibiotics.

Common and unique elements of the ABA-regulated transcriptome of Arabidopsis guard cells [PDF]
BackgroundIn the presence of drought and other desiccating stresses, plants synthesize and redistribute the phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA). ABA promotes plant water conservation by acting on specialized cells in the leaf epidermis, guard cells, which ...

Comparisons of gene content and orthologous protein sequence constitute a major strategy in whole‐genome comparison studies. It is expected that horizontal gene transfer between phylogenetically distant organisms and lineage‐specific gene loss have greater influence on gene content‐based phylogenetic analysis than orthologous protein sequence‐based ...

One can’t stand on its own: Are non-luminescence traits necessary for V. fischeri colonization of E. scolopes? [PDF]
Vibrio fischeri and Euprymna scolopes squid establish mutualistic symbiosis and select for each other in the natural environment. V. fischeri provides bioluminescent camouflage for E. scolopes while E. scolopes provides nutrients for V. fischeri.
