Mediated plastid RNA editing in plant immunity. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2013 Plant regulatory circuits coordinating nuclear and plastid gene expression have evolved in response to external stimuli. RNA editing is one of such control mechanisms.

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

Dynamic reorganization of photosynthetic supercomplexes during environmental acclimation
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013 Plants and algae have acquired the ability to acclimate to ever-changing environments in order to survive. During photosynthesis, light energy is converted by several membrane protein supercomplexes into electrochemical energy, which is eventually used ...

Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.While X‐ray crystallography has been the primary method for determining the structures of metalloproteins, cryoEM has taken over this role, illustrated by [4Fe4S]‐cluster containing proteins deposited in the Protein Data Bank. What will be the role for X‐ray crystallography as cryoEM and machine learning methods dominate the initial structural analysis?

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2009 This review focuses on phylloquinone as an indispensable link between light-induced charge separation and subsequent charge stabilization in Photosystem I (PS I). Here, the role of the polypeptide in conferring the necessary kinetic and thermodynamic properties to phylloquinone so as to specify its functional role in PS I electron transfer is discussed.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 The thylakoid membranes of vascular plants are differentiated into stacked granum and unstacked stroma regions. The formation of grana is triggered by the macrodomain formation of photosystem II and light-harvesting complex II (PSII-LHCII) and thus their

Assessing plant water status: Part 1 – Classical methods
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract As a result of the changing climate, water scarcity poses a significant threat to crop and pasture production. Although soil water content can indicate drought, its measurements often provide limited spatial resolution and are weakly correlated with plant water status, producing misleading drought assessments.
