Bt agave: why it is time to explore a new biotechnological frontier

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Drylands cover 41% of Earth, requiring sustainable crops. Agave, drought‐ and heat‐adapted, offers high‐value products with low water needs. Pests limit yield, yet Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Cry proteins, successful in other plants, remain unexploited in Agave.

Primary photosynthetic processes: from supercomplex to leaf

open access: yes, 2009
This thesis describes fluorescence spectroscopy experiments on photosynthetic complexes that cover the primary photosynthetic processes, from the absorption of light by photosynthetic pigments to a charge separation (CS) in the reaction center (RC ...

Essential oils as bioherbicides: effects of orange and citronella oils on weed germination and early growth

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Essential oils from orange and citronella showed dose‐dependent inhibition of weed germination and early growth, highlighting their potential as bioherbicides and sustainable tools for integrated weed management. Abstract BACKGROUND Increasing selection of herbicide‐resistant weed biotypes has intensified the search for alternatives to the intensive ...

Microbial Community Dynamics in Marine Water: Influence of Hydrocarbon Type and Exposure Time

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine environments are frequently impacted by petroleum‐derived hydrocarbons, which pose ecological risks because of their toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic potential. Microorganisms play a crucial role in hydrocarbon degradation, and understanding the influence of time and hydrocarbon type on microbial dynamics helps improve bioremediation ...

Carbohydrate metabolism in sugar cane chloroplasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
Some tropical plants (Hatch-Slack-Kortschak or HSK plants), for example sugar canes, have an unusual leaf morphology in that there are single layers of cells surrounding the vascular bundles. This layer is in turn surrounded by nesophyll cells.

Micro‐habitat selection by boreal woodland caribou improves access to food

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Bio‐logging sensors attached to radiotelemetry receivers have great potential to transform our understanding of the ecological, physiological, and energetic constraints that shape patterns of wildlife movement under field conditions. We used video camera collars to assess microhabitat selectivity by woodland caribou Rangifer tarandus in boreal forests ...

One Yeast, Sixteen Synthetic Chromosomes, Infinite Possibilities

open access: yesYeast, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The evolution of the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, from a genetically tractable model organism to a chassis for genome‐scale engineering represents one of the most influential trajectories in eukaryotic biology. The Synthetic Yeast Genome Project (Sc2.0) embodies the current height of this trajectory, having now delivered functional ...

Leaf C:P ratio as a universal indicator of photosynthesis in subtropical woody species: Stoichiometric thresholds and metabolic trade‐offs

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The stoichiometric ratios of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) serve as important indicators for assessing nutrient balance in forest ecosystems, but their relationships with photosynthetic dynamics require deeper characterization.

Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.
