Wrinkling Pickering Emulsions via Endospore Germination

Small, Volume 22, Issue 63, 12 November 2026.
This study presents a method for creating Pickering emulsions with long shelf life using bacterial endospores as stabilizers. Upon exposure to favorable conditions, spores germinate, swelland trigger wrinkling on droplet surfaces. The resulting patterns depend on initial interfacial coverage, enabling the change of droplet morphology on demand.

Comparative Peptidomic Identification of a Noncanonical PSK3 Precursor‐Derived Peptide That Enhances Antiviral Defence Through MAPK‐Dependent ROS Signalling in Tobacco

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 11, November 2026.
This study identifies NbPSK3 as a PSK3‐derived non‐canonical peptide signal that enhances antiviral immunity in tobacco by activating MAPK signalling and ROS burst; shows potential for broader antiviral protection. ABSTRACT Plant viral diseases cause substantial agricultural losses, yet the endogenous signals contributing to antiviral immunity remain ...
