The molecular mechanisms of defensive‐grade organic acid biosynthesis in ground beetles
Formic acid and methacrylic acid are the primary defensive chemicals in the pygidial gland secretions of Platynus angustatus and Pterostichus moestus, respectively. Comparative transcriptomics suggests the folate cycle and valine catabolism may be involved in the biosynthesis of formic acid and methacrylic acid, respectively.

ABSTRACT Sarcopenic obesity, characterized by the concurrent presence of excess adiposity and diminished skeletal muscle mass and function, is closely linked to frailty, chronic inflammation, and insulin resistance. The increasing prevalence of sarcopenic obesity is driven by the global aging population, widespread adoption of sedentary lifestyles, and

ABSTRACT Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs), defined as transcripts > 200 nt without protein‐coding capacity, play crucial regulatory roles in plant growth and development. While numerous lncRNAs exist in plants including cotton (Gossypium spp.), few are functionally characterised. G. hirsutum serves as both a premier fibre crop and significant oil source,

ABSTRACT Caffeine is a defensive alkaloid primarily accumulated in tea leaves to defend against pathogens. But the regulatory mechanism for caffeine biosynthesis in response to fungal infection and the trade‐off between specialised metabolite and plant growth remain elusive.
