The draft genome sequence of European pear (Pyrus communis L. 'Bartlett').

PLoS ONE, 2014
We present a draft assembly of the genome of European pear (Pyrus communis) 'Bartlett'. Our assembly was developed employing second generation sequencing technology (Roche 454), from single-end, 2 kb, and 7 kb insert paired-end reads using Newbler ...

When invasions go unnoticed: Public perception of the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii in Europe

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1957-1973, June 2026.
Abstract Biological invasions are a major driver of biodiversity loss, yet inconspicuous or “cryptic” species often escape detection and public awareness, limiting management responses. We investigated the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely native to China and now present on six continents, through a 22‐month multilingual online survey

Analysis of expressed sequence tags from Actinidia: applications of a cross species EST database for gene discovery in the areas of flavor, health, color and ripening

BMC Genomics, 2008
Background Kiwifruit (Actinidia spp.) are a relatively new, but economically important crop grown in many different parts of the world. Commercial success is driven by the development of new cultivars with novel consumer traits including flavor ...

A manually annotated Actinidia chinensis var. chinensis (kiwifruit) genome highlights the challenges associated with draft genomes and gene prediction in plants

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Most published genome sequences are drafts, and most are dominated by computational gene prediction. Draft genomes typically incorporate considerable sequence data that are not assigned to chromosomes, and predicted genes without quality ...

Cruzain Inhibitors for Chagas Disease: Anticorrelated Optimisation Landscapes and the Multiparametric Path to Clinical Candidates

Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 107, Issue 6, June 2026.
Three decades of cruzain‐targeted drug discovery have yielded 215 sub‐micromolar inhibitors but no clinical candidates. This review diagnoses a systemic translational failure driven by single‐parameter optimisation and proposes a multiparametric framework integrating enzymatic potency, cathepsin selectivity, intracellular exposure, and metabolic ...

Text as tape: On the voice in the late prose of Friederike Mayröcker

Orbis Litterarum, Volume 81, Issue 3, Page 248-270, June 2026.
Abstract For a text to have a voice means to be caught in a paradox: the text obviously does not speak, so what is that tone rising from the pages? Taking hold of a striking ambivalence, this essay examines the relationship between text and voice in the late prose of Austrian poet Friederike Mayröcker.

The Rice Cis‐Natural Antisense Transcript NAT1850 of Pri‐miR1850 Negatively Regulates Cold Tolerance by Repressing NPR3

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3969-3988, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Natural antisense transcripts (NATs) correspond to nearly 60% of annotated rice loci, however their functions are largely unknown. In this study, we characterise a rice cis‐NAT (NAT1850) that completely overlaps with a rice‐specific primary miRNA, pri‐miR1850.

Catherine de' Medici and the Forest of Orleans: Queenly Participation in Early Modern French Forest Management

Renaissance Studies, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 507-531, June 2026.
Abstract This essay demonstrates how a gender‐informed, more‐than‐human lens can provide new ways to analyse how the role of a queen in forestry management was conceptualised by sixteenth‐century professional men. It explores these ideas as they are presented in a work published by Guillaume Martin, Lieutenant General of the forests and waterways of ...
