A well‐resolved phylogeny of Cuscuta subgenus Monogynella based on data drawn from all three plant genomes

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Cuscuta (dodders) consists of ~200 species circumscribed into four subgenera (Monogynella, Cuscuta, Pachystigma, and Grammica) and is the only parasitic genus in Convolvulaceae (the morning‐glory family). This group shows a significant diversity in plastid functionality and represents a rare mixotrophic system among parasitic plants ...

Intermolecular Carbon–Carbon Naphthalene Coupling Involves a Radical Mechanism Driven by Cytochrome P450 in Alternaria alternata

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
1,8‐DHN is an important intermediate to form complex aromatic ring systems. Phenol‐coupling reactions are important for the dimerization of two molecules. Here, we show that a fungal cytochrome P450 enzyme catalyzes specific C─C bonds. ABSTRACT Dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) derivatives are precursors of biologically important molecules, including melanin ...

A tribal‐scale phylogenomic perspective on ancestry and major lineages of the allotetraploid Hawaiian silversword alliance (Madieae, Compositae)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Disentangling the ancestry of insular plant lineages is important for resolving their evolutionary histories but often complicated by polyploidy, an overrepresented condition in remote island floras. We used a phylogenomic approach to study the origin of subgenomes of the tetraploid Hawaiian silversword alliance and advance ...

An IscS Persulfide Donates the Sulfur for Ribosomal Protein uL16 Thioamidation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
YcaO‐catalyzed thioamidation of the ribosomal subunit protein uL16 is widespread in Pseudomonadota bacteria. We identify the iron–sulfur cluster cysteine desulfurase IscS as the sulfur donor via an IscS persulfide and observe direct IscS–uL16 interactions.

A mid‐Cretaceous monocot flower from the Dakota Sandstone of Kansas and its potential implications for the fossil record of palms

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Although the megafossil flora of the upper Albian–lower Cenomanian Dakota Formation in Kansas is well known for angiosperms, monocots have not been reported previously. Methods A mesofossil flower was discovered by X‐ray analysis of a specimen collected more than a century ago from the Dakota Sandstone of central Kansas.

Characterization of a Fungal Modular Polyketide Synthase System Reveals an Unusual Strategy for Polyketide Chain Initiation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Fungal modular polyketide synthases (PKSs) remain largely unexplored. Functional characterization of the LasC/LasD assembly line established its role in strasseriolide C biosynthesis and suggested an unexpected strategy for chain initiation, in which a malonyl unit is transferred from the module 2 acyl carrier protein (ACP) domains to the loading ACP ...
