Toxoplasma ceramide synthases: Gene duplication, functional divergence, and roles in parasite fitness

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 37, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023
The Toxoplasma “pseudo” ceramide synthase (TgCerS2) defines a novel apicomplexan class of these essential enzymes. Abstract Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate, intracellular apicomplexan protozoan parasite of both humans and animals that can cause fetal damage and abortion and severe disease in the immunosuppressed.

Sensory plastid‐associated PsbP DOMAIN‐CONTAINING PROTEIN 3 triggers plant growth‐ and defense‐related epigenetic responses

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 115, Issue 2, Page 414-433, July 2023., 2023
SUMMARY Sensory plastids are important in plant responses to environmental changes. Previous studies show that MutS HOMOLOG 1 (MSH1) perturbation in sensory plastids induces heritable epigenetic phenotype adjustment. Previously, the PsbP homolog DOMAIN‐CONTAINING PROTEIN 3 (PPD3), a protein of unknown function, was postulated to be an interactor with ...

Genetic Diversity of Sexually Propagated Corals Is Maintained From the Aquarium to the Reef

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 5, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Amidst global reef declines, large‐scale coral aquaculture is being developed to support reef intervention. Genetic diversity underpins population resilience and therefore it is critical that aquaculture methods maintain diversity. However, it remains unclear how genetic diversity of coral progeny is shaped by (1) parental genetic composition,

Proximity Labelling‐Based Proteomics Identifies Antiviral Host Factors Associated With the Potexvirus Replicase

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Multi‐control proximity labelling identifies host factors at ER‐organelle interfaces. NbCBP, NbREM1.5 and NbCAS interact with the PlAMV MET domain and restrict viral replication. ABSTRACT Plant positive‐strand RNA viruses establish viral replication complexes (VRCs) by remodelling intracellular membranes, primarily the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and ...

Detection and Genomic Characterization of Novel Respiratory Viruses in US and Mexican Cattle Farms

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Respiratory virus infections in cattle cause an estimated more than $1 billion in production losses and can threaten human health. During February 2024 to May 2025, we employed a One Health approach to surveil for respiratory viruses among cattle, farm workers, and environmental samples from 11 US and Mexican beef or dairy cattle farms.

Exploring the Critical Environmental Optima and Biotechnological Prospects of Fungal Fruiting Bodies

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2025.
Mechanisms and strategies for fungal fruiting body development (FBD) are reported. The critical optima for the relevant environmental cues regulating FBD were synthesised. Fruiting body biotechnological applications and recent advances in designed approaches are elucidated.

First detection of apple proliferation and pear decline phytoplasmas in Luxembourg

open access: yesEPPO Bulletin, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 320-327, August 2025.
Abstract The present article reports the first detection of the apple proliferation and pear decline phytoplasmas (‘Candidatus Phytoplasma mali’ and ‘Ca. P. pyri’, respectively) in Luxembourg. These phytoplasmas, belonging to the 'Apple Proliferation group' 16SrX, are causing severe losses in European fruit tree production, respectively, on apple ...

Functional Characterization of Cassava A20/AN1 Genes (Metip4, Metip8, and Metip11) in Multiple Abiotic Stresses

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 14, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
Cassava A20/AN1 genes (Metip4, Metip8, and Metip11) function in multiple abiotic stresses, showing potentialities in gene engineering abiotic stress‐tolerant crops. ABSTRACT Climate/environmental changes have posed significant challenges to crop production.

High diversity of Phytophthora species in natural ecosystems and nurseries of Portugal: Detrimental side effect of plant introductions from the age of discovery to modern globalization

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 2, Page 330-362, February 2025.
High diversity of known and new, mostly exotic Phytophthora species in forests, nurseries and streams across Portugal and numerous associated forest tree declines are a consequence of long‐term plant introductions and outplantings. Abstract Between 2010 and 2015, an extensive survey of Phytophthora diversity was performed across Portugal.

The Agroecological Transition of Farms in the Ecuadorian Andes Through the Lens of the Main Agroecological Structure

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 424-440, 30 January 2025.
ABSTRACT Many sectors of society have urged a transition from modern conventional agriculture to more sustainable alternatives. One of the most frequently mentioned is agroecology, due to its potential to improve soil health, promote agrobiodiversity, food sovereignty, and regenerate ecosystem functions.
