Endosymbiotic Fungal Diversity and Dynamics of the Brown Planthopper across Developmental Stages, Tissues, and Sexes Revealed Using Circular Consensus Sequencing

Insects
Endosymbiotic fungi play an important role in the growth and development of insects. Understanding the endosymbiont communities hosted by the brown planthopper (BPH; Nilaparvata lugens Stål), the most destructive pest in rice, is a prerequisite for ...

The 3D genome of Gigaspora margarita unveils stable chromatin and nucleolar organization and symbiont‐dependent genome dynamics

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2799-2817, September 2026.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are widespread plant symbionts that enhance nutrient acquisition and influence ecosystem productivity. Previous chromosome‐level assemblies of the model species Rhizophagus irregularis revealed a two‐compartment genome architecture (active A and repressed B chromatin compartments), yet its conservation across ...

The Effect of Density-Dependent Phase on the Locust Gut Bacterial Composition

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The desert locust demonstrates density-dependent phase polyphenism: For extended periods it appears in a non-aggregating, non-migrating phenotype, known as the solitary phase. When circumstances change, solitary individuals may aggregate and transform to

High‐Throughput Sequencing in Aquaculture Disease Investigations: Challenges and Opportunities for Implementation

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The current generation of sequencing technologies can produce terabases of data with exceptional accuracy and speed, at a fraction of the cost of older methods. Despite this unprecedented power, adoption into aquaculture health management presents several challenges, including identifying where such capability may be optimally deployed.

Functional Specialization of Clathrin‐Independent Endocytic Routes: Mechanisms and Cellular Roles

Traffic, Volume 27, Issue 3, September 2026.
Distinct clathrin‐independent endocytic (CIE) routes support specialized cellular functions across different contexts. Created with Biorender.com. ABSTRACT Clathrin‐independent endocytosis (CIE) comprises a diverse repertoire of internalization mechanisms that operate in parallel with clathrin‐mediated endocytosis.

Negotiating in a Foreign Land: Understanding the Curious Interactions Between Intracellular Mitochondria and Internalized Nanoparticles

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 August 2026.
Therapeutic nano‐drug delivery systems interact with cellular mitochondria in a multitude of ways. While the complexity of such interactions disrupts the mitochondrial electron transport chain and increases reactive oxygen species production, thereby contributing to nanoparticle toxicity, they also present unique theranostic opportunities in diseases ...

Divide and shape: an endosymbiont in action [PDF]

Planta, 2012
The endosymbiotic evolution of the plastid within the host cell required development of a mechanism for efficient division of the plastid. Whilst a model for the mechanism of chloroplast division has been constructed, little is known of how other types of plastids divide, especially the proplastid, the progenitor of all plastid types in the cell.

Why a Chloroplast Needs Its Own Genome Tethered to the Thylakoid Membrane—Co‐Location for Redox Regulation

BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 8, August 2026.
A schematic outline of chloroplast DNA tethered to two stacked thylakoids that contain the components of photosynthetic electron transport. Green shapes represent proteins encoded in chloroplast DNA; brown shapes represent proteins encoded in the cell nucleus. ABSTRACT A chloroplast is a subcellular organelle of photosynthesis in plant and algal cells.

Higher Temperature and Host Age Alter Infection Outcomes in a Multi‐Pathogen System

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Warming, host age, and pathogen identity shaped disease outcomes more strongly than co‐infection in a factorial experiment with two fungal pathogens on tall fescue. Higher temperatures generally reduced disease severity, while host age modified responses‐older plants were more resistant in some contexts, but this depended on temperature and pathogen ...
