Method and timing of rhizobacteria inoculation to plant roots alters success and strength of aphid suppression

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Inoculating plants with beneficial rhizobacteria using sodium alginate encapsulation to create ‘bacterial beads’ offers a targeted method for pest control for crop plants. Delivering rhizobacteria to roots at germination enhanced aphid suppression compared to seed inoculations.

Rhizobacteria prime the activation of plant defense and nutritional responses to suppress aphid populations on barley over time. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Interactions between plants and soil microbes are widespread and are documented to modulate plant–insect herbivore interactions. Still, it remains unclear how these shape the overall plant defense responses and the mechanisms in suppressing insect populations.

Living by the lake: Plant food diversity in a prehistoric lake‐dwelling community in the Republic of North Macedonia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the relationship between wetland ecosystems and prehistoric lakeshore settlements within the Lake Ohrid basin (a biodiversity hotspot) by considering plant food systems at Ploča Mičov Grad, North Macedonia. The mid‐fifth millennium (c.4555–4373 to 4437–4241 cal BCE) waterlogged assemblage contained a diverse spectrum of ...

Underutilised crops in Europe: An interdisciplinary approach towards sustainable practices

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract In the context of a rapidly growing global population and significant climatic and environmental change, there is an urgent need to produce nutritious food in a sustainable manner. Some crops are underutilised in Europe, despite their suitability to local environments, viability for sustainable production and potential to improve diets.

Genome-wide association mapping of frost tolerance in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)

BMC Genomics, 2013
BackgroundFrost tolerance is a key trait with economic and agronomic importance in barley because it is a major component of winter hardiness, and therefore limits the geographical distribution of the crop and the effective transfer of quality traits ...

Metabolic responses to salt stress of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars, Sahara and Clipper, which differ in salinity tolerance

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2009
Plants show varied cellular responses to salinity that are partly associated with maintaining low cytosolic Na+ levels and a high K+/Na+ ratio. Plant metabolites change with elevated Na+, some changes are likely to help restore osmotic balance while ...

X‐ray micro‐CT imaging to study foliar water uptake mechanisms in plants with contrasting leaf topography

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Formation of an aqueous continuum from the leaf surface to the sub‐stomatal cavity is a key process, affecting the foliar entry of solutes, particles, and pathogens. However, the factors controlling the transition from a water droplet to the formation of a continuous water film remain poorly understood.

MEPDB: Database of microExons in plants

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Microexons, ≤ 51‐nucleotide (nt), particularly ultra‐short ones (1–15 nt), are challenging to identify due to their small size and frequent absence in genome annotations, which limits understanding of their biological roles. Using our developed pipeline, we identified 2398 small internal microexons across 10 diverse plant species, and most of ...

Large‐scale quantification of stomatal patterning in barley leaves overexpressing epidermal patterning factor 1 reveals differential stomatal density between the adaxial and abaxial surfaces and spatial heterogeneity that impact stomatal function

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Stomatal density varies spatially over the leaf surface and between abaxial and adaxial leaf surfaces, with distribution greatly influencing plant photosynthesis and water use. However, methodological limitations have prevented quantification of spatial heterogeneity and its consequences for gaseous exchange in monocot crops.
