Thaldh3-Dependent GABA Metabolism Modulates Response of Trichoderma to Fusaric Acid-Induced Oxidative Stress

Journal of Fungi
Fusaric acid (FSA) is a mycotoxin produced by pathogenic Fusarium species that inhibits the growth of various beneficial microbes. In this study, we investigated the molecular mechanisms by which Trichoderma harzianum NJAU4742 (Th), a beneficial fungus ...

Ecosystem‐Centered Robot Design: Toward Ecoresorbable Sustainability Robots (ESRs)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Robots exploring natural ecosystems can support monitoring and conservation, but must adopt ecosystem‐centered design to avoid pollution, waste, and damage. This review proposes guidelines for co‐designing ecoresorbable sustainability robots (ESRs), uniting materials, robotics, and ecological contexts in a single framework.

Soybean Auxin Transporter PIN3 Regulates Nitrate Acquisition to Improve Nitrogen Use and Seed Traits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Xu et al. discovers that switching off auxin transporters in soybean, PIN3a and PIN3b, disrupts auxin flow; this triggers ARF‐STF3/4 signal cascade to activate the nitrate importer NPF2.13 and soil nitrogen acquisition. Multi‐year field trials show edited soybeans maintain yield with higher oil content, offering a potential genetic route to improve ...
