Bacteriomes, cryptic forms and evolution of a common wireworm pest species, Hypnoidus bicolor
Wireworms are important agricultural pests, including Hypnoidus bicolor in the Canadian Prairies. Parthenogenetic and sexual populations of H. bicolor appear associated with different molecular clades. Bacterial community composition and structure were influenced by developmental stage, sampling location and host genetics.

Interleukin‐12: Central Roles in Immune Regulation and Disease Therapy
IL‐12 levels are tightly regulated to balance effective protective immunity against infections and cancer with the risk of excessive inflammation and autoimmune disease. Both insufficient and excessive IL‐12 activity can therefore be detrimental, highlighting the importance of precisely controlling its production and signaling. ABSTRACT Interleukin‐12 (

Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as

ABSTRACT Arginine metabolism in plants is targeted by phytopathogens such as Pseudomonas syringae strains, which produce toxins that affect enzymes of plant arginine metabolism, causing devastating infections in crops. In this work, the structural and functional properties of plant N‐acetylornithine glutamate acetyltransferase (NAOGAT), the key ...

Prolonged in vitro micropropagation reshaped the strawberry endomicrobiome, reducing bacterial diversity and community complexity. Biotization with selected plant growth‐promoting bacteria partially compensated for these changes by improving plant performance and acclimatization, supporting microbiome‐assisted approaches for tissue culture systems ...
