The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis
Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...

Embryonal degreening and seed longevity require plastid LEA proteins
Working model of how plastidial LEA proteins aid the remodelling of photosynthetic structures during degreening of Arabidopsis seed embryos. LEA42 and LEA48 support thylakoid proteostasis and membrane remodelling in embryonal cells during late seed maturation by maintaining a local physicochemical environment compatible with protein turnover and ...

Guard cell size and initial conductance influence stomatal closure kinetics
Conceptual overview of the two hypotheses linking stomatal anatomy to closure kinetics. Summary In fluctuating environments, the kinetics of stomatal opening and closing influence the balance between carbon gain and water loss. Smaller guard cells may respond faster to fluctuating environmental conditions because of their greater surface area for ...

ABSTRACT Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a legume that is widely consumed around the world due to its nutritional content. Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris is a serious, destructive pathogen that causes fusarium wilt disease and affects chickpea production.

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.

Effect of proteases on the functional properties of pea protein isolates
Abstract Plant proteins are promising candidates for the green transition in foods, but they have low functionality. Partial hydrolysis is gaining interest as a way to modify the functionality of plant proteins. The degree of hydrolysis (DH) is the “golden standard” to characterize partial hydrolysis.

Hidden Strategies Beneath a Single Nucleotide: Contrasting Physiology in Lichen Photobiont Strains
ABSTRACT Lichen photobionts exhibit significant physiological variability with important ecological implications. While this variability is relatively well studied at the interspecific level, it has rarely been examined at the intraspecific level. Here, we investigated the physiological responses to temperature and irradiance of two Trebouxia lynniae ...

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.
