Is the endophyte‐based plant protection against aphids mediated by changes in the insect microbiome?

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
We showed that the fungal endophyte Epichloë strain AR37 increased the plant resistance against aphids via the production of indole diterpene alkaloids. The reduction in aphid performance was not associated with changes in abundance/composition/diversity of the insect's bacterial microbiota, but additional endophyte effects on this microbiota cannot be

Multi‐omics reveal the gut microbiota‐mediated severe foraging environment adaption of small wild ruminants in the Three‐River‐Source National Park, China

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This research reveals the gut microbiota‐mediated severe foraging environment adaptation of wild small ruminants in the Three‐River‐Source National Park. Unlike Tibetan sheep (TS), blue sheep (PN and Tibetan antelope (TA) often grazed low‐quality herbage in a wildness environment, and the higher microbial diversity and resilient network characteristics

Chloroplast alchemy: rewriting the chloroplast genome with high precision

open access: yesTrends in Plant Science
In the past decade, precise genome editing has transitioned from theory to practical application. Yet, plastid genomes have largely remained impervious to these advances. A recent breakthrough by Mok et al. (2024) demonstrated successful plastid genome editing by developing transgene-free atrazine-resistant arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) plants.

Shifting microbial communities in acidified seawaters: insights from polychaetes living in the CO2 vent of Ischia, Italy

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The microbiome of polychaetes Syllis prolifera and Platynereis massiliensis complex changes in naturally acidified CO2 vents. A slight degree of acidification is associated with relevant changes in the microbial community, stressing the importance of investigations about the possible effects of ocean acidification on key biological and ecological ...

Scaling Up Species Delimitation From DNA Barcodes to Whole Organelle Genomes: Strong Evidence for Discordance Among Genes and Methods for the Red Alga Dasyclonium

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Molecular sequence data have become a ubiquitous tool for delimiting species and are particularly important in organisms where morphological traits are not informative about species boundaries. A range of statistical methods have been developed to derive species limits from molecular data, for example, by quantifying changes in branching ...
