First genome sequence of a European Alternaria brassicae isolate and genes involved in early development of alternaria leaf spot on Brassica juncea

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This article reports the first genome sequence of a UK Alternaria brassicae isolate. Dual RNA‐sequencing profiling of A. brassicae‐infected Brassica juncea leaves identified differentially expressed genes involved in pathogenicity and host response pathways in moderately resistant Sej‐2 (2) and moderately susceptible Pusa Jaikisan cultivars.

Toxicity of Four Common Environmental Chemicals Across Caenorhabditis elegans Life Stages Supporting the One Health Concept

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pesticides and pharmaceuticals are among the most common chemical groups in waterbodies and soils, and their universal distribution raises concerns about potential adverse effects on nontarget organisms and humans. Reproductive output disruption is of particular concern, as it transposes effects from the individual to the next generations at ...

Internal physiological drivers of leaf development in trees: Understanding the relationship between non‐structural carbohydrates and leaf phenology

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant phenology is crucial for understanding plant growth and climate feedback. It affects canopy structure, surface albedo, and carbon and water fluxes. While the influence of environmental factors on phenology is well‐documented, the role of plant intrinsic factors ...

A convenient, soil‐free method for the production of root nodules in soybean to study the effects of exogenous additives

Plant Direct, 2019
Legumes develop root nodules that harbor endosymbiotic bacteria, rhizobia. These rhizobia convert nitrogen to ammonia by biological nitrogen fixation. A thorough understanding of the biological nitrogen fixation in legumes and its regulation is key to ...

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.

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

A comprehensive overview of yeast libraries and their role in advancing cell biology

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Systematic, genome‐wide yeast mutant libraries have revolutionized systems and cell biology. By allowing high‐throughput interrogation of every gene and protein, they have defined gene essentiality, charted protein localization, illuminated function, mapped interactions, and more.

Structural variation drives rhizome innovation and adaptive divergence in sister Medicago species

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Chromosome‐scale genome analysis, population resequencing, stress‐responsive transcriptomes and functional assays showed that coding and regulatory structural variants, especially gene duplications and noncoding presence‐absence variants, underlie rhizome formation in alpine Medicago archiducis‐nicolai and contrasting xeric adaptation in its non ...

Vegetative propagation of native species potentially useful in the restoration of México City's vegetation Propagación vegetativa de especies nativas potencialmente útiles en la restauración de la vegetación de la ciudad de México

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2012
Hardwood and softwood cuttings of Buddleja cordata HBK, Dodonaea viscosa Jacq and Senecio praecox D.C. were tested to know their ability to form adventitious roots.
