PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Food plants are vital to human and planetary health, but their diversity is threatened, making food security, nutrition, and environmental goals more difficult to achieve. Food plant diversity conservation, research, and education can be enhanced through collaboration between sectors, including genebanks and botanic gardens, which possess complementary

Needle in a haystack: Holocene history of European larch in Central Europe revisited
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Defining nativity of species is crucial for their management. However, this is a complex task, especially for species that have been used and spread by humans for a long time. We combined paleoecological records with extensive genetic data to investigate the Holocene history of European larch—a common and economically important tree species in Central ...

The Genetic Legacy of Cretan Landrace Grapevines and Their Relationship to the Southern Levant
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Grapes are more than an agricultural crop; they are a vital part of human history, economy, and culture. Yet the origins of many traditional varieties remain unclear. By studying the genetics of Cretan grapes, we discovered that they are a “genetic mosaic”—combining local lineages with those from the Southern Levant and Eastern Europe.

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.DHT directly binds to MIF and subsequently blunts AKT signaling, which restores the kinase activity of GSK‐3β. The reactivated GSK‐3β then promotes the phosphorylation (Ser33/37/Thr41) and proteasomal degradation of β‐catenin, thereby preventing its nuclear translocation and inhibiting the transcription of EMT‐related genes (e.g., Snail and Twist ...
