Adaptation of flea beetles to Brassicaceae: host plant associations and geographic distribution of Psylliodes Latreille and Phyllotreta Chevrolat (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) [PDF]
The cosmopolitan flea beetle genera Phyllotreta and Psylliodes (Galerucinae, Alticini) are mainly associated with host plants in the family Brassicaceae and include economically important pests of crucifer crops.

SUMMARY The legume family originated ca. 60–65 million years ago and soon diversified into at least six lineages (now extant subfamilies). The signal of whole genome duplications (WGD) is apparent in species sampled from all six subfamilies. The early diversification has posed difficulties for resolving the legume backbone structure and the timing of ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

ABSTRACT Recent advances in agricultural production and storage systems have contributed to a significant enhancement in annual wheat production and preservation, aimed at satisfying increasing consumer demands. Despite such potential developments, there are still significant post‐harvest losses in stored wheat, induced by destructive pests, grain ...

A new species of Capparidastrum (Capparaceae) from the Atlantic Forest of Brazil [PDF]
During the analysis of herbarium collections from northeastern Brazil, and fieldwork to study the Capparaceae flora of Rio Grande do Norte state, a new species of Capparidastrum was discovered. Capparidastrum atlanticum sp. nov.

The green peach aphid, Myzus persicae, is the main virus vector in sugar beet. We examine its performance on potential winter hosts as well as the host selection and overwintering success of anholicyclic aphids in order to improve forecasting models for virus outbreaks through targeted monitoring of suitable winter hosts. Abstract Virus yellows (VY) is

ABSTRACT A key challenge for the genetic improvement of canola (Brassica napus), one of the world's most important oilseeds, is the limited natural variation for commercially important traits. The creation of new variation is hindered by the lack of functional knowledge about genes controlling these traits.

Chemodiversity Studies on Exudate Flavonoids of Cleomaceae species (Brassicales)
Seven species of the genus Cleome were analysed for formation of exudate flavonoids. The majority of structures found were polymethoxyflavonols with 6- and/or 8- O -substitution. A novel compound, isolated from C.

Genomic Origin and Diversification of the Glucosinolate MAM Locus
Glucosinolates are a diverse group of plant metabolites that characterize the order Brassicales. The MAM locus is one of the most significant QTLs for glucosinolate diversity. However, most of what we understand about evolution at the locus is focused on
