Architecture and Evolution of Prokaryotic Multicellularity: Common Patterns and Diversity

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Prokaryotes form diverse multicellular structures, like biofilms, filaments, and aggregates, comprising hallmark traits such as adhesion, communication, differentiation, and programmed cell death. This review explores how these forms develop, function, and evolve in response to environmental cues.

An AGC kinase cascade regulates ROP signaling for the correct timing of pollen germination

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Model for PDK1‐AGC1.5/7 kinase cascade function in controlling pollen germination. Summary In flowering plants, the timing of pollen germination is crucial for successful fertilization and an important trait for seed and fruit crops. Environmental factors tightly regulate pollen germination, with germination‐suppressing conditions on the pollen ...

PELOTA at the crossroads of tomato fertility and viral resistance

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
PELOTA (PELO), a conserved ribosome surveillance factor underlying the tomato resistance allele ty‐5, plays key roles in TYLCV susceptibility and reproductive development. Complete loss of PELO function (pelo‐1CR) confers strong resistance to TYLCV but causes severe floral defects, impaired male and female fertility, and complete sterility.

High‐Contiguity Haplotype‐Resolved Genome Assembly of the Hexaploid Actinidia valvata Rootstock Sheds Light on Waterlogging Resistance Gene

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyploidisation, creating redundant or diverged copies of the genome, is a major driving force in plant evolution, diversification and environmental adaptation, including for the kiwifruit genus (Actinidia Lindl.). We present a high‐contiguity, haplotype‐resolved genome assembly of the hexaploid Actinidia valvata rootstock cultivar ...

Genome‐Wide Association Study Elucidates the Genetic Architecture of Manganese Tolerance in Brassica napus

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brassica napus (canola) is a significant contributor to the world's oil production and is cultivated across continents, yet acidic soils with aluminium (Al3+) and manganese (Mn2+) toxicities limit its production. The genetic determinants underlying natural variation for acidic soil tolerance in canola are unknown and need to be determined ...

Verticillium dahliae CFEM Effector VdCR Stabilises the Susceptibility Factor GhAGP31 to Suppress Host Vascular Immunity and Promote Cotton Verticillium Wilt

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant pathogenic fungi secrete a wide array of effector proteins to manipulate host immunity, including those containing CFEM (Common in Fungal Extracellular Membranes) domains. Here, we identified a CFEM domain‐containing effector VdCR from Verticillium dahliae, the causal agent of cotton Verticillium wilt.

Seeing Through an Ant's Eyes: Do Entomopathogenic Fungi Extend Their Cognition to Their Hosts?

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Post‐cognitivist approaches recognize cognition as a phenomenon that involves not just brains but all the sensorimotor apparatus of organisms. This means that brains are not always required for the emergence of cognition and that every organism can, in principle, be cognitive, unlocking a theoretical framework to explain the complex adaptive ...

Mapping Microbial Interaction Networks of Alcoholic Fermentation

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 6, December 2026.
We propose a generalized statistical mechanics framework that integrates ecological niche theory, evolutionary game theory, and the allometric scaling law. This approach enables the reconstruction of dynamic, multilayer, and modular networks from static microbial data during the fermentation process.

Mucuna pruriens as a Sustainable Functional Food: Applications From Seed to Product

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 2, December 2026.
This review highlights Mucuna pruriens as a nutrient‐rich legume with significant nutritional, therapeutic, and agricultural value. Its protein‐rich seeds contain essential minerals and L‐DOPA, but high antinutritional compounds require effective processing before consumption.
