Enhanced Endophytic Colonization of Flavobacterium Promotes Plant Resistance to Fusarium Wilt

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A natural microbial consortium employing a cross‐feeding strategy forms a stratified biofilm that promotes endophytic colonization of auxotrophic Flavobacterium. This enhanced colonization activates plant systemic resistance, effectively suppressing Fusarium wilt.

Chitinases as Food Allergens [PDF]

Molecules, 2019
Food allergies originate from adverse immune reactions to some food components. Ingestion of food allergens can cause effects of varying severity, from mild itching to severe anaphylaxis reactions. Currently there are no clues to predict the allergenic potency of a molecule, nor are cures for food allergies available. Cutting-edge research on allergens

Integration of the D‐Genome Reshapes Gene Transcription, Chromatin Architecture, and Metabolome of Allohexaploid Wheat, Leading to Enhanced Environmental Adaptability

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Integration of the D‐genome reshapes gene transcription, chromatin architecture, and the metabolome of hexaploid wheat, leading to enhanced adaptability to salt, UV‐B, and alkali stress. ABSTRACT The hybridization‐led integration of the D‐genome into domesticated tetraploid wheat gave rise to allohexaploid wheat, the most cultivated wheat globally ...
