NET‐Associated Inflammatory Markers in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Bioinformatic Prioritization and Exploratory Serum Assessment in Patients Undergoing Radiotherapy

Molecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and inflammatory mediators have been implicated in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, but their relationship with systemic inflammatory status during radiotherapy remains incompletely understood. This exploratory integrative study combined a literature‐guided network‐based bioinformatic prioritization ...

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

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.

Ethnobotanical and genetic assessments of Central American avocado landraces reveal novel sources of biodiversity and ancient migration patterns

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Avocados are a multibillion‐dollar global commodity, but their growing export market pressures local farmers to abandon local fruit tree diversity in favor of commercial cultivar production. Interviews with rural avocado farmers and households from the Southern Mexican Highlands, Pacific Coastal Honduras, and Western Nicaragua, as well as the genetic ...

Conservation gap analysis for wild grapevines (Vitis L.) of the Americas

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Wild grapevines (Vitis L.) native to the Americas are ecologically and culturally important plants that are also critical to the global cultivated grape industry as sources of traits for crop innovation, but many of these species are poorly documented and insufficiently conserved.
