Loss of mitochondrial single stranded DNA-binding protein (mtSSB) gene is associated with mitochondrial genome fragmentation in Psocodea (bark lice, book lice, and parasitic lice)

BMC Biology
Background Organelle genome fragmentation is a drastic large-scale chromosomal mutation. Why and how organelle genomes become fragmented is still poorly understood.

Relay maize after tobacco enhances rapeseed growth and nutrition by reshaping soil microbial communities in an annual triple cropping system

Frontiers in Plant Science
Multiple cropping systems are increasingly being adopted worldwide to improve land-use efficiency and promote sustainable agriculture. To optimize the traditional post-tobacco fallow period, we evaluated a novel tobacco–maize–rapeseed (T_M_R) triple ...

Interference of ATP‐Binding Cassette Transporter by Functional Nano‐Delivery System for High Efficiency Management of Insecticide‐Resistant Nilaparvata lugens

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A ZIF‐90 nanocarrier delivers dinotefuran and suppresses NlABCG3 and NlABCH1 in resistant Nilaparvata lugens. This system combines pH/ATP‐triggered release with enhanced foliar retention, improving efficacy while sparing honeybees and promoting rice growth, offering a promising resistance‐breaking strategy.

Biological Control of Coleopteran Pests [PDF]

International Journal of Bio-resource and Stress Management, 2018
Coleopteran pests having the modified forewings which serves as protective covers for the membranous hind wings and commonly called as beetle. Most of them are important pest of agriculture, forestry, fruit trees and stored grain while only a few species are considered to be beneficial.

Cyclic Colonization in Predictably Ephemeral Habitats: A Template for Biological Control in Annual Crop Systems

, 1997
Biological control strategies that were developed for orchards and forests have had limited success in controling pests in annual crop systems (ACSs). In this paper I will argue that an accurate characterization of the habitat template of ACSs will be a ...

A Small‐Molecule DEPTAC Rescues Cognitive Deficits by Targeted Dephosphorylation of Pathological Tau

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TP2 is a fully synthetic small‐molecule dephosphorylation‐targeting chimera that recruits endogenous PP2A‐Bα to Tau, enabling targeted removal of pathological phosphate modifications. In two tauopathy mouse models, systemic TP2 reduces Tau pathology, preserves neuronal and synaptic integrity, improves neuroimmune homeostasis, and rescues cognition ...

Dual‐line Genome‐scale CRISPR Screening Enables Robust Target Gene Discovery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A species‐optimized CRISPR platform integrates efficient piggyBac delivery, genome‐scale sgRNA libraries, and parallel screening in two independently engineered Bactrocera dorsalis Cas9 cell lines. Cross‐line consensus analysis filters line‐specific effects, enriches candidates with reproducible in vivo phenotypes, and reveals conserved, species ...

Tissue-specific changes in endophytic bacterial and fungal communities of two pine species associated with pine wilt disease

Frontiers in Microbiology
Pine wilt disease severely threatens pine forests worldwide, yet coordinated shifts in endophytic bacterial and fungal communities across host tissues remain incompletely resolved.
