Modulating Drought Stress Response of Maize by a Synthetic Bacterial Community

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Plant perception and responses to environmental stresses are known to encompass a complex set of mechanisms in which the microbiome is involved. Knowledge about plant physiological responses is therefore critical for understanding the contribution of the

Temporal field phenomics of transgenic maize events subjected to drought stress: Cross‐validation scenarios and machine learning models

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 8, Issue 1, December 2025.
Abstract Global climate change has driven breeding programs to develop abiotic stress‐resilient plant varieties. Traditionally, assessing drought resilience involves labor‐intensive and time‐consuming processes. This study used an unmanned aerial system (UAS) to predict key phenotyping traits in maize (Zea mays L.) and monitor plant response to drought

Drought tolerance classification using unmanned aerial systems based on RGB and multispectral data

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Drought poses a global threat to food security and demands intensified efforts from breeding programs. Yet the lack of efficient methods for selecting this trait increases the cost and time required to develop new cultivars.

Reactive oxygen species act as signaling molecules to control root hair initiation and tip growth

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 5, Page 2042-2048, September 2025.
Summary Root hairs (RHs) increase the surface area of roots, facilitating nutrient and water uptake and plant anchorage. RHs form from root epidermal cells and elongate by polar tip growth. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have recently been implicated as important signals that drive RH formation and elongation using both genetic and imaging approaches ...

Beyond the Local Catchment: Influence of Regional Context and Land Use Legacy on Current Stream Fish Diversity in Agricultural Systems

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Land use poses a major threat to global biodiversity, impacting ecosystems across various spatial and temporal scales. Recent studies suggest that past land use changes influence the observed contemporary diversity patterns in stream fish assemblages more strongly than current land use.

Exploring the Research Evolution of Cacao Diseases Over the Past Two Decades: A Review

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 6, Page 1470-1494, August 2025.
A scientometric analysis (1999–2025) reveals multidisciplinary research on cacao diseases, highlighting genomics and global collaboration, with gaps in field validation and knowledge integration. ABSTRACT Cacao (Theobroma cacao) is an economically vital world crop facing threats from various diseases, causing substantial yield losses.

Differential gene expression toward species of Aristolochia impairing the performance of the Troidini butterfly Battus polydamas

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 7, Page 696-707, July 2025.
We studied the response of Battus polydamas (Papilionidae) larvae fed on Aristolochia ringens (containing several diterpenes) and Aristolochia gigantea (containing sesquiterpenes and acyclic monoterpenoids but no diterpenoids or aristolochic acids). We assessed larval performance on fitness components such as survival and differential gene expression ...

Structural Characterization of Maize SIRK1 Kinase Domain Reveals an Unusual Architecture of the Activation Segment

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Kinases are primary regulators of plant metabolism and excellent targets for plant breeding. However, most kinases, including the abundant receptor-like kinases (RLK), have no assigned role.
