Rooting Conifer Genetic Research: An Accessible and Efficient Transformation System
ABSTRACT Conifers serve as the cornerstone of global forest ecosystems, yet their genetic transformation faces notorious challenges. To overcome the intrinsic resistance of conifer adventitious roots to Agrobacterium/Rhizobium‐mediated transformation, we systematically and iteratively engineered the binary vector by introducing chimeric Ri plasmid ...

ABSTRACT Pulses provide myriad health benefits and are advantageous in an environmental context as a result of their leguminous nature. However, phytopathogenic fungi, oomycetes and bacteria pose a substantial threat to pulse production, at times leading to crop failure.

ABSTRACT Hairy‐root transformation is widely used to generate transgenic plant roots for genetic functional characterisation studies. However, transformation efficiency can be limited, largely due to the use of binary vectors. Here, we report on the development of novel integrative vectors that significantly increase the transformation efficiency of ...

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Metaphysical dependence and the subset relation between powers
Abstract What is the relation between the token powers of higher‐level occurrences and the token powers of more basic physical occurrences? In related but somewhat different ways, Sydney Shoemaker and Jessica Wilson argue that the former are a proper subset of the latter, and that this can provide a viable account of higher‐level causation within a ...

Abstract This article offers an alternative understanding to the therapeutic experiences of human interactions with companion species, particularly dogs and horses, through a phenomenological discussion of more‐than‐human intersubjectivity. In an ethnographic account of residents of the Central Coast, New South Wales, Australia, the lived experience of

Fugitive Junctures: Life‐Seeking, Route‐Finding and the Mobile Ensemble at Kenya's Borders
Short Abstract Fugitivity has become an important conceptual frame to understand the illegalised mobilities of contemporary migrants in conjunction with enslaved people's historical lines of flight as spatial praxes to seize their own freedom. Thinking from Kenya, and drawing on research with migrants, border officials, activists, police and smugglers,

Abstract Biofortification is an effective strategy to improve the micronutrient content of staple crops. However, biofortification of finger millet (Eleusine coracana L.) with zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe) has not been adequately investigated under biochar amendment.
