Crystal Structure–Activity Relationship of Some MeO Phenylacrylonitriles: Dual Antimicrobial–Cytotoxic Effects and in Silico Perspectives

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
Methoxy‐phenylacrylonitriles (2a–c) are synthesized and characterized by fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and X‐ray crystallography (for 2a,b). Compound 2b shows selective cytotoxicity against MCF‐7 cells (IC50: 34 μM) and enhances activity against Gram‐positive bacteria. Molecular docking reveals strong

Arbuscular mycorrhiza in the urban jungle: Glomeromycotina communities of the dominant city tree across Amsterdam

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Trees in cities provide a great number of benefits to people and nature, but they are challenged by harsh conditions. Trees rely on helpful fungi in their roots to get essential nutrients from the soil, but we do not know which of these fungi are resistant to city landscapes.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal genotype and nuclear organization as driving factors in host plant nutrient acquisition and stable carbon storage

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
It is crucial to develop strategies for reducing our continued excessive global increases in fertilizer applications and to offset CO2 emissions. The pervasive underground hyphal networks of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) present an enticing bio‐stimulant and carbon sink. We inoculated Sudan‐grass plants with eight genotypically distinct strains of

Ectomycorrhizal fungal community succession and fragmentation across forest edges nearly three decades postharvest

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Forest management for wood products involves the conversion of primary forests to younger plantations. This has an immediate impact on biota such as ectomycorrhizal fungi, a diverse symbiotic fungal community. Alternatives to large clearcuts may be one way to mitigate harvesting effects.

Interactions of rare earth elements with living organisms and emerging biotechnical applications

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Rare earth elements (REEs) are critical resources required to achieve net‐zero carbon emission targets and energy security. However, rising demand for REEs coupled with significant extraction and processing challenges and geopolitical risks restricts access to REE resources.

How safe are peat‐free growing media? An exploration of plant pathogen risks to the horticultural industry and recommendations for risk mitigation

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The UK's horticultural industry is shifting from reliance on unsustainable peat‐based growing media to products that contain alternative constituents, including coir, bark, wood fibre and composted green waste. Some peat‐alternatives carry an elevated risk of harbouring plant pathogens, including the potential to introduce novel pathogens from overseas,
