An interactive art activity to promote student reflection and learning about host-microbe interactions

Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education
The use of art in science teaching can effectively help students understand complex and abstract concepts, particularly in the fields of Microbiology and Microbial Ecology, where the study objects—the microbes—are invisible to human eyes.

An Improved Biotic Index of Organic Stream Pollution [PDF]

, 2017
Major improvements were made in using a biotic index of the arthropod fauna to evaluate organic stream pollution. All tolerance values were reevaluated, many were changed, and the scale for tolerance values was expanded to 0-10 to provide greater ...

Parasitic Plant–Host Interactions: Molecular Mechanisms and Agricultural Resistance Strategies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Parasitic plants devastate global agriculture through sophisticated molecular interactions with host crops. This review synthesizes current understanding of parasitic plant‐host interactions, from strigolactone‐mediated germination and haustorium formation to host defense mechanisms.

Biotic and abiotic factors predicting the global distribution and population density of an invasive large mammal

Scientific Reports, 2017
Biotic and abiotic factors are increasingly acknowledged to synergistically shape broad-scale species distributions. However, the relative importance of biotic and abiotic factors in predicting species distributions is unclear.

Combining Electrochemical Reduction with Biosynthesis for Directed Conversion of CO2 into a Library of C3 Chemicals

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In the H‐type electrolytic cell, carbon dioxide is reduced to acetic acid via electro‐microbial catalysis. The simply processed acetic acid is further converted through biological fermentation into high‐value‐added products, including acrylic acid, L‐lactic acid, and β‐alanine.

Biotic Factors Affecting Elm Health in Ukraine

Forests
Elms (Ulmus spp.) are widely spread in the forest, shelter belts, and urban landscaping. This research aimed to reveal the trends of Ulmus sp. health in Ukraine under biotic damage. The tasks included: (i) analyzing the presence of Ulmus sp. in the forests; (ii) studying the dynamics of Ulmus sp.

Exploring plant tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses [PDF]

, 2007
Plants are exposed to many stress factors, such as drought, high salinity or pathogens, which reduce the yield of the cultivated plants or affect the quality of the harvested products. Arabidopsis thaliana was used as a model plant to study the responses

A Statistical Mechanics Model to Decode Tissue Crosstalk During Graft Formation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We introduce a statistical mechanics framework to decode the genomic crosstalk governing plant grafting. By integrating evolutionary game theory with transcriptomics, we reconstruct idopNetworks (informative, dynamic, omnidirectional, and personalized networks) that map scion–rootstock interactions.
