Native and invasive inoculation sources modify fungal community assembly and biomass production of a chaparral shrub [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Feedbacks between plants and surrounding soil microbes can contribute to the establishment and persistence of invasive annual grasses as well as limit the success of restoration efforts.

PlantID – DNA-based identification of multiple medicinal plants in complex mixtures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background An efficient method for the identification of medicinal plant products is now a priority as the global demand increases. This study aims to develop a DNA-based method for the identification and authentication of plant species that can be ...

Characterizing morphology of Egregia menziesii (Laminariales) in California over 2 centuries using historical and contemporary herbarium specimens

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The canopy‐forming feather boa kelp Egregia menziesii exhibits remarkable morphological variability across its geographic range. Regional morphotypes of Egregia were once considered separate species, but they were not determined to be genetically distinct; instead, their morphology was thought to reflect local physical or environmental ...

Whole genome sequencing of historical specimens from the world's largest fungal collection yields high‐quality assemblies

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary High‐throughput molecular studies of museum specimens (museomics) have great potential in biodiversity research, but fungal historical collections have scarcely been examined, leading to no comprehensive methodological assessments. Here we present a whole genome sequencing (WGS) project conducted at the Fungarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens ...

An Alignment-Free Approach for Eukaryotic ITS2 Annotation and Phylogenetic Inference

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The ITS2 gene class shows a high sequence divergence among its members that have complicated its annotation and its use for reconstructing phylogenies at a higher taxonomical level (beyond species and genus). Several alignment strategies have been implemented to improve the ITS2 annotation quality and its use for phylogenetic inferences.

Unveiling Potato Cultivars With Microbiome Interactive Traits for Sustainable Agricultural Production

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Root traits significantly shape rhizosphere microbiomes, yet their interaction with microbes is often overlooked in plant breeding programs. Here, we propose that selecting modern cultivars based on microbiome interactive trait (MIT), such as root biomass, exudate patterns and the rhizosphere microbiome, can enhance agricultural sustainability

Molecular diagnosis by PCR-DHPLC technique of wood-decay fungi in historical buildings in Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Wood inhabiting fungi cause real problems in the preservation of wooden surfaces and are responsible for the deterioration of cultural heritage. The identification of fungi based on morphological characteristics are still a topical issue.

Identification of Fritillariae bulbus from adulterants using ITS2 regions

open access: yesPlant Gene, 2016
AbstractDistinguishing the five types of Fritillariae bulbus (Fritillariae cirrhosae bulbus, Fritillariae ussuriensis bulbus, Fritillariae pallidiflorae bulbus, Fritillariae thunbergii bulbus and Fritillariae hupehensis bulbus) is difficult because of their similar morphological, physical, and chemical characteristics. These species, which are included
