Secrets within stems: The cryptic Apodanthes caseariae (Apodanthaceae), a rare neotropical holoendoparasite

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Holoendoparasites are extremely rare plants that live entirely hidden inside their hosts, with only flowers and fruits visible. We studied Apodanthes caseariae, found in central and South America, parasitizing Casearia sylvestris. Little is known about its life cycle.

Comments on the RG‐Flow in Open String Field Theory

Fortschritte der Physik, EarlyView.
Abstract We define a metric G$G$ on the KBc‐subalgebra modulo gauge and describe the worldsheet RG‐flow as the gradient flow of the action of cubic open string field theory, where the flow lines are kink‐solitons. In particular, for a constant tachyon the gradient flow equations are equivalent to the RG‐equations. Additionally, a more general family of

Whole‐genome sequencing reveals novel ryanodine receptor mutations P4568L and Y4701D conferring high‐level chlorantraniliprole resistance in Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐genome sequencing identified novel ryanodine receptor mutations P4568L and Y4701D causing >1000‐fold chlorantraniliprole resistance in Spodoptera litura, enabling development of molecular diagnostics for proactive resistance management. Abstract BACKGROUND Spodoptera litura is a significant insect pest that attacks many agricultural crops ...

Resistance mechanisms in collard green genotypes to Plutella xylostella: role of physical and morphological traits

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Resistance to Plutella xylostella in collard greens is mediated by antixenosis and antibiosis, associated with traits such as leaf wax, hardness, and color. Genotypes showed strong resistance potential, supporting their use in breeding and integrated pest management strategies. Abstract BACKGROUND The diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera:

From Membrane Composition to Antimicrobial Strategies: Experimental and Computational Approaches to AMP Design and Selectivity

Small, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.
