Small grassland patches are hotspots for medicinal plants and associated phytochemical diversity in European agricultural landscapes

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Besides being important components of landscape‐level biodiversity, medicinal plants are essential resources for traditional and modern healthcare. However, human‐driven biodiversity loss has resulted in the decline of medicinal plant populations. By maintaining connections between nature, culture, and people, sacred natural sites can help counteract ...

Molecular Basis for Vacuolar Iron Transport by OsVIT2, a Target for Iron Biofortification in Rice

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron deficiency is the prevalent and most widespread nutritional shortfall for humans, affecting over 30% of the global population and leading to anemia, particularly among preschool‐aged children and pregnant women in developing countries. Simultaneously, while half of the world's population depends on rice (Oryza sativa L.) as a staple food,

Crystal Structure and Functional Characterization of YjgK From Salmonella Typhimurium

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The YhcH/YjgK/YiaL (DUF386) family, widely conserved across bacterial species, is involved in essential cellular processes yet remains poorly characterized. YjgK from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium has drawn attention because of its potential role in biofilm formation associated with metal homeostasis, which may be critical for ...

Analysis of multiple‐herbicide resistant Amaranthus palmeri populations from Spain points to an introduction of the eccDNA from America

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
In this study, multiple herbicide resistant mechanisms have been confirmed in two Amaranthus palmeri populations from Spain that survived glyphosate‐ and ALS‐inhibitor herbicides. Our data suggest that the eccDNA and the mutations identified in the ALS gene are the result of an evolutionary event that occurred outside Spain.

Indirect plant defense may provide economically important pest suppression in sorghum

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Laboratory measures of sorghum direct and indirect plant resistance traits aligned with natural enemy recruitment and pest suppression in the field. Abstract BACKGROUND A promising strategy to optimize biological control of insect pests is selecting crop varieties with indirect defense traits.
