Preimaginal development of Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) in brackish water gives rise to adult mosquitoes with thicker cuticles and greater insecticide resistance

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The principal arboviral vector Aedes aegypti can develop in coastal brackish water field habitats (0.5–15 g/L salt) with larvae possessing thicker cuticles and greater resistance to the larvicide Temephos. Females emerging from brackish water‐developing preimaginal stages are now shown to have thicker and remodelled leg and abdominal cuticles and ...

The 3D genome of Gigaspora margarita unveils stable chromatin and nucleolar organization and symbiont‐dependent genome dynamics

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are widespread plant symbionts that enhance nutrient acquisition and influence ecosystem productivity. Previous chromosome‐level assemblies of the model species Rhizophagus irregularis revealed a two‐compartment genome architecture (active A and repressed B chromatin compartments), yet its conservation across ...

Ecological and genomic variation in ectomycorrhizal fungal exploration types

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) produce mycelia with variable extension and complexity, which can be classified according to soil ‘exploration types’ (ETs). ETs have received attention as one of the few mycorrhizal trait frameworks, but without an empirical classification of ET functional diversity and environmental preferences, understanding and ...

A tomato MIK2‐clade receptor is involved in the perception of a Fusarium‐derived elicitor

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Fusarium elicitor responsivness and MIK2‐clade proteins are conserved across plant families. Summary Plants continuously monitor their environment to adapt to threats affecting health and fitness. Cell‐surface receptors detect conserved microbe‐associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) or endogenous immunogenic signals to activate signaling pathways that ...

Circadian Clock Gates Verticillium dahliae Defence in Cotton by Modulating JAZs Expression

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The circadian clock plays critical roles in orchestrating temporal regulation of diverse physiological processes. However, its role in mediating root‐associated immunity against soil‐borne pathogens in crops remains poorly understood. Here, we show that cotton circadian clock gates nighttime resistance to vascular fungal pathogen Verticillium ...
