Cellular Upcycling of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) With an Engineered Human Saliva Metagenomic PET Hydrolase

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2026.
To enable whole‐cell PET valorization, PETCAT is constructed as a two‐strain Escherichia coli system: one engineered to secrete the human saliva metagenomic PET hydrolase optimized for PET degradation at moderate temperatures; and another harboring a synthetic pathway for the conversion of terephthalic acid, a major PET monomer, into catechol—a ...

Conservation challenges and opportunities for native apple (Malus) species in Canada

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 134-156, January 2026.
Apple, one of the world's most widely cultivated and economically important fruit crops, has two wild relatives native to Canada. In this review, we describe the importance of these native apple species to Indigenous heritage and the current threats the species faces due to pests, diseases, and habitat loss.

Bioactivity of Root Endophytic Freshwater Hyphomycetes Anguillospora longissima (Sacc. & Syd.) Ingold

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
Anguillospora longissima, isolated from root as endophytic freshwater hyphomycetes, was evaluated for its bioactivity (antibacterial potential) against five bacterial strains, namely, Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis MTCC 121) and Gram-negative ...

Exploring plant tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Plants are exposed to many stress factors, such as drought, high salinity or pathogens, which reduce the yield of the cultivated plants or affect the quality of the harvested products. Arabidopsis thaliana was used as a model plant to study the responses

Plant Immunity–Activating Endophytic Bacteria Induce Dynamic Metabolic Changes in Cultured Plant Cells Without Inhibiting Their Growth

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2026.
‘Plant immunity–activating endophytic bacteria’ induce dynamic metabolic changes in cultured plant cells without inhibiting their growth. Co‐culture of plant cells with these bacteria has great potential for the production of valuable phytochemicals.

Secreted Glycoside Hydrolase BcGH61 From Botrytis cinerea Induces Cell Death by the Apoplastic Location and Triggers Intracellular Immune Perception

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
We present a dual‐action virulence paradigm for BcGH61: Extracellularly, BcGH61 glycoside hydrolase degrades cell walls, releasing DAMPs that activate PRR‐mediated cell death. Intracellularly, it targets chloroplasts via NbHrBP1 interaction at plastoglobule‐thylakoid interfaces, paradoxically activating defence signalling while priming immunity‐related
