DNA ligase LigE increases bacterial transformation with damaged extracellular DNA

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The DNA ligase LigE from the naturally competent Gram‐negative bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoaea increases transformation with cut extracellular DNA. This process is ATP‐dependent and relies on the catalytic activity of LigE; it also requires that LigE contains an intact periplasmic localisation sequence, indicating that ligE functions in the periplasm ...

Effect of Host Plant Resistance on Thrips Development

open access: yes, 2011
Thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis and Thrips parvispinus) are a major pest in pepper cultivation. Control of thrips is difficult because of their polyphagous and cryptic behaviour as well as their increasing resistance to many insecticides.

Going viral − Virus‐targeting nanobodies for research, diagnostics and therapy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The increasing prevalence of viral diseases represents a major threat for global human health. Nanobodies, small binding fragments derived from camelid heavy‐chain antibodies, offer versatile tools for viral research, diagnostics, and antiviral therapy.

Characterization and identification of sources of rust resistance in Triticum militinae derivatives

open access: yesScientific Reports
Triticum militinae (2n = 4X = 28, AtAtGG), belonging to the secondary gene pool of wheat, is known to carry resistance to many diseases. Though some disease resistance genes were reported from T. timopheevii, the closest wild relative of T.

Unlocking the potential of cell‐permeable nanobodies for intracellular applications

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review outlines current strategies for delivery of nanobodies into cells and highlights recent examples of functional applications. By addressing and manipulating intracellular targets, these molecules hold great potential for treating cancer, respiratory diseases and neurological disorders, making this a vibrant area of research in the biomedical

ADULT PLANT RESISTANCE IN WHEAT TO PHYSIOLOGIC RACES OF PUCCINIA TRITICINA ERIKSS.

open access: yes, 1943
Nine wheat varieties were studied in two stages of growth, the seedling stage and the heading stage, for their reaction to a number of physiologic races of leaf rust of wheat, Puccinia triticina Erikss.

Lack of correlation between constitutive and induced resistance to a herbivore in crucifer plants: real or flawed by experimental methods? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The correlation between constitutive and induced resistance to herbivores in plants has long been of interest to evolutionary biologists, and various approaches to determining levels of resistance have been used in this field of research.

Comparing the paths of Hedgehog release in artificial and natural settings

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hh morphogens require solubilization factors to overcome their tight association with the plasma membrane and signal to distant cells, but the precise functions of these factors are controversial. Here, we use published in vivo observations as the most relevant evidence to test their suggested functions and discuss contradictions and gaps between in ...

Quantitative Trait Loci Mapping for Adult-Plant Stripe Rust Resistance in Chinese Wheat Cultivar Weimai 8

open access: yesAgronomy
Wheat stripe rust, triggered by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, is among the most widespread and damaging wheat (Triticum L.) diseases. The development of cultivars harboring adult plant resistance (APR) to stripe rust is a better approach to ...
