Improving Decision‐Making in the Identification of Tephritidae Larvae at Import in the European Union and Key to Third Instar Larvae

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Tephritidae family, or true fruit flies, comprises approximately 250 species recognized as economically significant due to their capacity to infest commercial fruits. These pests pose serious threats to both food security and trade, and are considered quarantine pests in areas where they are not yet established. In the European Union (EU),

Embryonal degreening and seed longevity require plastid LEA proteins

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
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 ...
