Preimaginal development of Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) in brackish water gives rise to adult mosquitoes with thicker cuticles and greater insecticide resistance

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The principal arboviral vector Aedes aegypti can develop in coastal brackish water field habitats (0.5–15 g/L salt) with larvae possessing thicker cuticles and greater resistance to the larvicide Temephos. Females emerging from brackish water‐developing preimaginal stages are now shown to have thicker and remodelled leg and abdominal cuticles and ...

Belowground growth is the primary driver of radial oxygen loss from Typha angustifolia to sediment

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Oxygen pool accompanying the growth of a new Typha angustifolia rhizome through anoxic sediment. Summary Wetland plants must supply oxygen to their rhizomes and roots to maintain aerobic respiration despite soil anoxia. Excess oxygen can diffuse into the environment, strongly affecting rhizosphere biogeochemistry.

Subversion of plant endomembrane trafficking by a Plasmodiophora brassicae effector PbALE that recruits membrane components at the host–pathogen interface to aid in colonization

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Schematics of ΔSPPbALE‐induced disruption of plant endomembrane trafficking impairs both preinvasive and postinvasive immunity against filamentous fungi and facilitates intracellular colonization by Plasmodiophora brassicae. Summary Plasmodiophora brassicae, an intracellular biotrophic protist that causes clubroot in crucifers, extensively alters the ...

Single‐Nucleus Transcriptome Analysis Provides New Insights Into B Chromosome Elimination in Sorghum

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT B chromosomes are supernumerary entities found in many plant species, with some exhibiting tissue‐specific elimination. In Sorghum purpureosericeum, extensive B chromosome elimination occurs during embryogenesis affecting most of the embryonic organs, leaving the B chromosome maintained mainly in limited regions of meristems.

Unexpected Suppression of Tomato Fruit Cuticle Formation by Overexpression of a Key Cutin Biosynthetic Enzyme

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fruit cuticles regulate the diffusion of water, gases and solutes, functioning as essential protective interfaces against environmental and biotic stresses. Engineering cuticle structure and mechanics therefore represents a promising strategy for improving fruit quality and resilience.

Hydraulic Activation of Stomata Induced by Hygroscopic Fertilizer Salts Alters Crop Carbon–Water Exchange: Field Evidence From Cereal Crops

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydraulic activation of stomata (HAS), driven by hygroscopic salt films on leaf surfaces, can create an additional pathway for water loss beyond conventional stomatal vapour diffusion, yet this process remains largely overlooked in studies of plant–atmosphere interactions.

Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome: A Scoping Review

Pediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Loose anagen hair syndrome (LAHS) is a rare, non‐scarring alopecia that may occur sporadically or follow autosomal dominant inheritance. The objective of this study was to review the etiology, clinical presentation, diagnostic features (including trichoscopy, trichogram, and microscopy), natural history, and treatment outcomes of LAHS.

A dual pollination strategy combining perfume attraction and food deception in Galeandra blanchetii E.S. Rand (Orchidaceae)

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Galeandra blanchetii exhibits a dual‐attraction strategy: male euglossine bees are lured by floral scents as a resource, while both sexes are deceived by non‐existent nectar. Pollination only occurs when bees enter the spur to search for nectar, highlighting an evolutionary transition towards the perfume flower syndrome in Catasetinae.

Divergent structure–function coordination shapes leaf thermal tolerance in Mediterranean tree species

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Tcrit (critical temperature) may reflect early, adaptive photoprotective downregulation of PSII in Quercus ilex, whereas in Acer campestre and Fraxinus ornus, it may more closely correspond to the onset of thermal PSII vulnerability. Abstract Increasing temperatures impair photosynthetic apparatus by damaging photosystem II (PSII) efficiency.
