Enhancing the vase life of cut roses through spectral optimisation during greenhouse cultivation
Here, we examined three red‐to‐blue (R:B) light emitting diode (LED) ratios (90:10, 80:20 and 70:30) in two cut rose cultivars. All treatments enhanced photosynthesis, with 90:10 showing the strongest effects—raising chlorophyll, carotenoids, anthocyanins and carbohydrate levels, and extending vase life by up to 30%.

Elucidating R‐gene‐mediated resistance to wheat dwarf virus in Triticum aestivum genotypes
This study investigates R‐gene‐mediated resistance to wheat dwarf virus (WDV) among different wheat genotypes. Following inoculation with Psammotettix alienus (leafhoppers) and the subsequent appearance of characteristic symptoms such as yellowing and dwarfing, phenotypic responses were evaluated alongside molecular analyses, including quantification ...

We sequenced fungal DNA in barren soils sampled from 12 sites along a 1900‐km transect through sub‐ and Maritime Antarctica and Patagonia. Using LASSO regression, we found air temperature ‐ and notably mean annual air temperature (BIO1) ‐ to be a highly significant predictor for the richness and relative abundance of soilborne plant pathogens.

Real‐time monitoring using a wireless sensor network revealed spatial and temporal microclimatic variability in cold rooms for table grape storage. The UMITEMP system enabled detection of humidity deficits and localized fluctuations, supporting improved environmental control and decision‐making in postharvest management.

Ustilago maydis secreted lipase, Lip3 targets PA and PS and alkalinises the host apoplast, thus promoting virulence. Loss of Lip3 results in reduced apoplastic pH and decreased pathogenicity. ABSTRACT Lipases constitute important virulence factors. By targeting specific lipids involved in various cellular processes, lipases regulate growth, development,
