Dual RNA-seq analysis reveals differences in defensive lncRNA expression in Pinus spp. with varying susceptibility to Fusarium circinatum [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging regulators of plant immunity, but their roles in conifer-pathogen interactions remain largely unexplored. We applied a dual RNA-seq approach to resistant Pinus pinea and susceptible P.

Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials. [PDF]

Med Vet Entomol
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...
