Management and incipient domestication of Chamaedorea tepejilote in agroforestry systems in Mexico
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Native wild plants are key elements in addressing global biodiversity loss and supporting sustainable food systems. We investigated how rural communities in Mexico manage Chamaedorea tepejilote, a wild palm with edible male inflorescences, by combining ethnobotanical, genetic, morphological and ecological approaches.

Molecular analysis of the somatic embryogenesis process in coffee-tree and banana [S03-67] [PDF]
, 2003 The use of cellular mass propagation techniques through somatic embryogenesis (SE) often depends on the efficiency of early stage tissue culture. Indeed, the control of initiation of "high frequency" callus, primarily containing embryogenic cells is ...

Sodium Ions Affect GPR17 Conformational States and Functionality
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sodium is an allosteric modulator of several class‐A GPCR regulating active versus inactive conformation state and may be a critical issue for the optimization of crystallization procedures. Herein, the role of Na+ in the regulation of GPR17 conformational states was studied through MD simulations of GPR17 wild‐type and mutated on two ...
