Aboveground herbivory elevates belowground rhizosphere volatile organic compound concentrations in ambient and polluted air, independent of volatile sampling methodology

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The effect of air pollution on plants is still underexplored, especially belowground. We used a field facility that released diesel exhaust and ozone at concentrations equivalent to those near a busy road in Reading, UK, to measure belowground gas exchange of Scots pine together with feeding by large pine weevils, a major pest of conifers.

Female Melanostoma hoverflies pollinate Cypripedium yatabeanum through a Paphiopedilum‐like floral trap

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Conserving rare plants requires understanding the ecological interactions that enable their reproduction. Although most studied Cypripedium species are pollinated by bees, the pollinators of many slipper orchids remain undocumented. We show that Cypripedium yatabeanum is pollinated by female aphidophagous hoverflies despite sharing broadly similar ...

Controlled incubation, leachate, and pot assays of shrimp shell‐based compost for suppressing Verticillium dahliae in olive

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Shrimp shell compost suppresses Verticillium dahliae microsclerotia, enhances chitinase activity, lowers olive wilt severity and improves plant recovery under controlled conditions. Abstract BACKGROUND Verticillium wilt of olive (Olea europaea L.), caused by Verticillium dahliae Kleb., is difficult to manage because long‐lived microsclerotia persist in

Emerging Approaches for Phytoconstituent Delivery in the Management of Rheumatoid Arthritis: Bridging Nature and Nanotechnology

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune condition marked by joint inflammation, cartilage destruction, and bone damage. Conventional treatments, including NSAIDs and DMARDs, have shown effectiveness in slowing down disease progression, but prolonged exposure to such medications results in adverse effects and lack of tolerance among patients.

Clinical periodontal diagnosis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

The MicroRNA miR773 Is Involved in the Arabidopsis Immune Response to Fungal Pathogens

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2018
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 21- to 24-nucleotide short noncoding RNAs that trigger gene silencing in eukaryotes. In plants, miRNAs play a crucial role in a wide range of developmental processes and adaptive responses to abiotic and biotic stresses.

Cell‐Based Micro/Nanorobots: From Living Carriers to Living Therapeutic Specialists

SmartBot, EarlyView.
Cell‐based micro/nanorobots integrate evolutionarily acquired biological intelligence with engineered capabilities, offering new opportunities for precision medicine in vivo. However, the complex physiological environments of different organs pose significant challenges to their clinical translation.

Relationship Between Localized Acquired Resistance (LAR) and the Hypersensitive Response (HR): HR Is Necessary for LAR to Occur and Salicylic Acid Is Not Sufficient to Trigger LAR

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1999
In tobacco plants reacting hypersensitively to pathogen infection, localized acquired resistance (LAR) is induced in a sharp zone surrounding hypersensitive response (HR) lesions.
