Interactions of rare earth elements with living organisms and emerging biotechnical applications
Rare earth elements (REEs) are critical resources required to achieve net‐zero carbon emission targets and energy security. However, rising demand for REEs coupled with significant extraction and processing challenges and geopolitical risks restricts access to REE resources.

The potential of seedbank digital information in plant conservation
Seedbanks are vital for biodiversity conservation, but their potential remains underutilised due to a limited understanding of the intraspecific genetic diversity they hold. By leveraging digitised data associated with seedbank collections, such as sampling locations, number of maternal plants and seed traits, we can attempt the estimation of genetic ...

SUPERVITAL MUTANTS OF ARABIDOPSIS
At three loci four phenotypically different mutations were induced by x rays which affect the photoperiodic response of the carrier. The standard wild type develops visible flower primordia in 10 to 12 days after germination. The mutants have various flowering response and may need a period up to 4 to 6 times as long for the completion of the same ...

The Actin‐Binding Prolyl‐Isomerase Par17 Sustains Its Substrate Selectivity by Interdomain Allostery
ABSTRACT The human peptidyl‐prolyl‐cis/trans isomerases (PPIases), Parvulin 14 and Parvulin 17, accelerate the cis/trans isomerization of Xaa‐Pro moieties within protein sequences. By modulating the respective binding interfaces of their target proteins, they play a crucial role in determining the fate of their substrates within the cell. Although both

A theoretical investigation provides an integrated understanding of the complex regulatory network controlling Arabidopsis root hair patterning [PDF]
A complex regulatory network controlling Arabidopsis root hair patterning has been defined using data collected over decades. The network, embedded in the root epidermis, contains positive and negative feedback loops, cell-cell signalling within the epidermal tissue, and receives positional signalling from underlying tissue.

A 27 bp deletion in SoIAA2 does not carry a measurable fitness penalty, either in monoculture or in competition with wheat. This suggests this mutation could be relatively common in weed populations. Abstract BACKGROUND A deletion mutation in the degron tail of auxin coreceptor IAA2 was found to confer resistance to the herbicide 2,4‐D in Sisymbrium ...

Weak phenotypic and genetic associations between resistance to dicamba and 2,4‐D suggest that different nontarget‐site mechanisms contribute to these traits in an Amaranthus tuberculatus population from Illinois. Abstract BACKGROUND Amaranthus tuberculatus (Moq.) Sauer (waterhemp) has emerged as one of several weed species that is resistant to ...

A point mutation in IAA34 confers resistance to the auxin herbicide 2,4‐D in Sisymbrium orientale
A point mutation in domain IV of SoAux/IAA34‐R provides resistance to 2,4‐D. Abstract BACKGROUND Sisymbrium orientale has evolved resistance to 2,4‐D in Australia due to a 27 bp deletion in SoIAA2. However, one population of Sisymbrium orientale resistant to 2,4‐D (R1) did not contain the SoIAA2Δ27, suggesting another 2,4‐D resistance mechanism was ...

RNAi technology development for weed control: all smoke and no fire?
Despite the potential of Spray‐Induced Gene Silencing in weed management several critical points such as molecular target, weed species of interest as well as delivery techniques need to be addressed. Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) technology, specifically Spray‐Induced Gene Silencing (SIGS), holds potential as an innovative approach for selective ...
