Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.ABSTRACT High‐throughput sequencing of the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) regions is the primary method for estimating fungal diversity from environmental DNA. However, reliance solely on ITS markers is complicated by its high variability in sequence length and the presence of multiple variants within a single genome, which can bias diversity ...

Convergence and parallelism in the evolution of plant metabolism
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 1013-1031, April 2026.Similar traits in different organisms may originate from shared ancestry or evolve independently. The terminology used to define phenotypic similarity is often confusing. This review attempts to clarify the definitions and present examples from plant domestication and specialized metabolism to explain how complex traits evolve repeatedly in plants ...

Determination of amatoxins and phallotoxins in Amanita phalloides mushrooms from northeastern Portugal by HPLC-DAD-MS [PDF]
, 2015 Amanita phalloides is a toxic mushroom responsible for the majority of deaths occurring after mushrooms ingestion, mainly due to amatoxins. In the present study the contents and distribution of the major amatoxins and phallotoxins in different tissues of

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.NINJ1 mediates PMR in cardiovascular cell death, releasing DAMPs that amplify vascular inflammation. Dual NINJ1 paradox: membrane‐bound form drives endothelial NF‐κB/CXCL‐8 inflammation while soluble form provides atheroprotection. Pericyte NINJ1 regulates the critical balance between angiogenic sprouting and vessel maturation in ischaemic tissues ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 499-515, March 2026.Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT α‐amanitin (α‐AMA), the primary lethal toxin of amanita, primarily targets the liver with a high toxicity and a low lethal dose. As the precise mechanism of intoxication is unclear, and specific antidotes are lacking, α‐AMA‐induced liver injury has a high mortality rate.
