Single-cell and spatial transcriptomics in Phragmites australis reveal the association of B chromosomes with plant invasiveness

Genome Biology
Background Invasive plants pose a major threat to global biodiversity, yet the molecular and genomic mechanisms underlying their success remain poorly understood.

From the sea to DNA barcode: Optimized preservation method for gelatinous zooplankton integrative taxonomy

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Assigning taxonomic identity and thus assessing taxonomic diversity in gelatinous zooplankton is challenging due to their fragility and difficult preservation. Formalin fixation compromises DNA integrity, while flash‐freezing, ethanol, and acetone preservation affect morphological features. In this study, we developed a methodological protocol

Artificial Intelligence‐Driven Natural Product Drug Discovery: From Computational Genome Mining to Clinical Translation

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Natural products (NPs) have historically yielded numerous therapeutic agents, yet their integration into modern drug discovery has been constrained by chemical complexity, low abundance, laborious dereplication, and limited target annotation.

Genetic analysis of the rare forest bryophyte Dicranum viride in the boreo‐nemoral zone near the northern distribution range limit

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Bryophytes are important forest ecosystem elements, being an integral part of biodiversity. Genetic studies contribute to bryophyte population ecology by helping to understand species historical distribution patterns and genetic diversity at different scales.
