A gall mite,Aceria rhodiolae(Acari: Eriophyidae), altering the phytochemistry of a medicinal plant,Rhodiola rosea(Crassulaceae), in the Canadian Arctic [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe eriophyid mite Aceria rhodiolae (G. Canestrini) is known to induce galls on the flowers and leaves of roseroot, Rhodiola rosea L., in subarctic and alpine regions of Europe. After discovering galls on the inflorescences of roseroot in Nunavik (Quebec), northeastern Canada, we examined the mites extracted from the galls and compared them ...

TRAF2 binds to TIFA via a novel motif and contributes to its autophagic degradation
TRAF family members couple receptor signalling complexes to downstream outputs, but how they interact with these complexes is not always clear. Here, we show that during ADP‐heptose signalling, TRAF2 binding to TIFA requires two short sequence motifs in the C‐terminal tail of TIFA, which are distinct from the TRAF6 binding motif.
