The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

5-Methyltryptophan Resistant Cells of Catharanthus roseus

Zeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 1979
Several cell lines resistant to 5-methyltryptophan were selected from wild type cells of different Catharanthus roseus suspension cultures. The resistant cells had up to 30 times tne normal levels of free tryptophan. Despite the increased pool size of tryptophan anthranilate synthetase activity of resistant cells was as sensitive to inhibition by ʟ ...
