Selection, counterselection, and conditional gene expression for genetic biocontrol of insects
Insect Science, EarlyView.Selection, counterselection, and conditional expression can be used for sex separation. Selection (S) and counterselection (CS) genes are linked to the sex chromosomes (e.g., the X and Y chromosomes) to confer sex‐specific selection or counterselection based on the presence or absence of the S or CS genes.

PLoS ONE, 2019 Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) plays important roles in plant developmental growth, especially in root architecture. The similarity in both chemical structure and biosynthetic pathway suggests a potential linkage between melatonin and auxin ...

Jasmonates enhance plants tolerance grown in Cd‐contaminated environments: A comprehensive overview
Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.Jasmonates (JAs) enhance plant tolerance to cadmium (Cd) stress by activating antioxidant defences but may reduce Cd uptake, limiting their effectiveness for phytoremediation. This review compiles studies that evaluated the effects of JA application on plants grown in Cd‐contaminated environments. Abstract Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal and one of

Physiologia Plantarum, 1997 Auxin metabolism encompasses transport, conjugation, deconjugation, conversion, and catabolism. The balance between auxin metabolism and biosynthesis determines the actual level of the hormone in a given cell and consequently plays an important role in many developmental processes from seed germination to fruit ripening.

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Using CRISPR‐Cas9, we engineered a genetic system allowing the dose‐dependent induction of a controllable number of DNA double‐strand breaks in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The tool was used to study the kinetics of DNA break sensing and repair, including the spatial distribution of Tel1ATM kinase, which initiates the DNA damage response.

Silencing Sl-EBF1 and Sl-EBF2 expression causes constitutive ethylene response phenotype, accelerated plant senescence, and fruit ripening in tomato [PDF]
, 2010 The hormone ethylene regulates a wide range of plant developmental processes and EBF (EIN3-binding F-box) proteins were shown to negatively regulate the ethylene signalling pathway via mediating the degradation of EIN3/EIL proteins.

Short coiled‐coil proteins from plants and metazoans – the ‘jacks of all trades’
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Short coiled‐coil proteins from plants and metazoans—true ‘jacks of all trades’—play supporting but crucial roles in cellular stress response, metabolism, autophagy, and membrane dynamics. Despite their small size and modest sequence conservation, proteins like plant LSUs and metazoan SCOCs showcase remarkable functional versatility shaped by evolution,
