SCIENTIFIC BASIS OF CROP CROPPING.
, 2022 The purpose of the research: The scientific basis of alternating sowing of crops by fields and years is called crop rotation. Such alternating planting creates conditions for controlling the amount of organic matter in the soil, effective control of weeds, plant diseases and pests, provides the granular structure of the soil, improves the nutrition and

Lignocellulosic Crops in Rotation with Food Crops
, 2020 Enhancing agricultural multifunctionality is viable in a multi-purpose crops intensification scenario. The cultivation of a sequence of food and energy crop has the potential to strengthen the crop rotation effect without reducing food land. Annual lignocellulosic crops for advanced biofuel could be introduced alongside conventional crops during the ...

The anabolic steroid stanozolol is a potent inhibitor of human MutT homolog 1
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.MutT homolog 1 (MTH1) is a member of the NUDIX superfamily of enzymes and is an anticancer drug target. We show that stanozolol (Stz), an anabolic steroid, is an unexpected nanomolar inhibitor of MTH1. The X‐ray crystal structure of the human MTH1–Stz complex reveals a unique binding scaffold that could be utilized for future inhibitor development ...

ERBIN limits epithelial cell plasticity via suppression of TGF‐β signaling
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In breast and lung cancer patients, low ERBIN expression correlates with poor clinical outcomes. Here, we show that ERBIN inhibits TGF‐β‐induced epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in NMuMG breast and A549 lung adenocarcinoma cell lines. ERBIN suppresses TGF‐β/SMAD signaling and reduces TGF‐β‐induced ERK phosphorylation.

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

Crop genetic erosion: understanding and responding to loss of crop diversity.
New Phytologist, 2021 Crop diversity underpins the productivity, resilience, and adaptive capacity of agriculture. Loss of this diversity, termed crop genetic erosion, is therefore concerning. While alarms regarding evident declines in crop diversity have been raised for over

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The Arabidopsis mutants hls1 hlh1 and amp1 lamp1 exhibit pleiotropic developmental phenotypes. Although the functions of the causative genes remain unclear, they act in the same genetic pathway and are thought to generate non‐cell‐autonomous signals.

A global synthesis reveals biodiversity-mediated benefits for crop production
Science Advances, 2019 Biodiversity benefits pollination, pest control, and crop productivity but suffers from land-use intensification. Human land use threatens global biodiversity and compromises multiple ecosystem functions critical to food production.

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...
