Methionine Synthase Positively Regulates Plant Defence to Both RNA and DNA Viruses and Is Useful for Developing Broad‐Spectrum Antiviral Resistance in Crops

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant viruses frequently cause severe economic losses in worldwide crop production. Developing broad‐spectrum resistance is the most efficient approach for controlling plant viral diseases. In this work, we found that the 17K protein of barley yellow dwarf viruses (BYDVs), which has multiple functions in viral pathogenesis including acting as ...

Triterpene Glycosides from the Cultures of Phytolacca americana.

open access: yesChemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2001
A new triterpene glycoside I was isolated together with the five known triterpene glycosides 2-6 from the cultures of Phytolacca americana. The structure of 1 was elucidated by analysis of spectroscopic data and comparison of its NMR data with those of 2-7 and chemical degradation.

Adaptive Significance of Nickel Hyperaccumulation by Plants

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 2, March 2026.
Metal hyperaccumulation may enhance plant fitness through multiple, non‐exclusive mechanisms, including elemental defense against herbivores and pathogens, altered pollinator interactions, and increased reproductive performance in metal‐rich soils. Metals may also affect plant–plant interactions via elemental allelopathy and improve stress tolerance ...

Mass spectrometric detection of new betalains in Mammillaria flowers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Betacyanins are natural, red-violet betalain pigments which can be found in plenty of plants of the Cactaceae family. The Mammillaria is the widest genus of the Cactaceae family of which fruit was examined for betacyanins contents.

Temporal niche partitioning by nocturnal arboreal mammals increases the modularity of plant–frugivore networks in a fragmented subtropical landscape

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 463-475, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animal‐mediated seed dispersal sustains plant diversity and ecosystem functioning, particularly in fragmented landscapes. However, the specific contributions of nocturnal frugivores, particularly in above‐ground (arboreal) strata, are often overlooked, leading to ...

An Ambidextrous Polyphenol Glycosyltransferase Pa GT2 from Phytolacca americana [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemistry, 2020
The glycosylation of small hydrophobic compounds is catalyzed by uridine diphosphate glycosyltransferases (UGTs). Because glycosylation is an invaluable tool for improving the stability and water solubility of hydrophobic compounds, UGTs have attracted attention for their application in the food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries.

The Role of Participatory Forest Management on Forest Composition, Diversity, and Regeneration: A Study of Guangua Elala Forest, Northwestern Ethiopia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Forestry Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Participatory forest management (PFM) is increasingly recognized as an effective approach for forest conservation and sustainable resource use in Ethiopia, yet empirical evidence of its ecological outcomes remains limited. This study assessed the effects of PFM on forest composition, diversity, and regeneration in the Guangua Elala Forest, Northwestern
