Disentangling biotic and abiotic drivers of intraspecific trait variation in woody plant seedlings at forest edges

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
In fragmented forests, edge effects can drive intraspecific variation in seedling performance that influences forest regeneration and plant composition.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Remotely piloted aircraft systems and a wireless sensors network for radiological accidents [PDF]

, 2016
In critical radiological situations, the real time information that we could get from the disaster area becomes of great importance. However, communication systems could be affected after a radiological accident.

Linking neurogenesis, oligodendrogenesis, and myelination defects to neurodevelopmental disruption in primary mitochondrial disorders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial remodeling shapes neural and glial lineage progression by matching metabolic supply with demand. Elevated OXPHOS supports differentiation and myelin formation, while myelin compaction lowers mitochondrial dependence, revealing mitochondria as key drivers of developmental energy adaptation.

STay tunEd: mutational analysis of the HvSTE1 gene in barley provides insight into the balance between semi-dwarfism and maintenance of grain size in brassinosteroid biosynthesis-dependent manner

Frontiers in Plant Science
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroid phytohormones which regulate various physiological and developmental processes throughout plant life cycle. The BR biosynthesis has been studied mainly in the dicot model species - Arabidopsis thaliana.

Nitrogen forms affect root structure and water uptake in the hybrid poplar [PDF]

, 2011
The study analyses the effects of two different forms of nitrogen fertilisation (nitrate and ammonium) on root structure and water uptake of two hybrid poplar (Populus maximowiczii x P. balsamifera) clones in a field experiment.

Aggressive prostate cancer is associated with pericyte dysfunction

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumor‐produced TGF‐β drives pericyte dysfunction in prostate cancer. This dysfunction is characterized by downregulation of some canonical pericyte markers (i.e., DES, CSPG4, and ACTA2) while maintaining the expression of others (i.e., PDGFRB, NOTCH3, and RGS5).

Functional Characterisation of GmGASA1-like Gene in Glycine max (L.) Merr.: Overexpression Promotes Growth, Development and Stress Responses

Life
The presence of Gibberellic Acid-Stimulated Arabidopsis, GASA, gene family has been reported in many important plants, playing roles in various aspects of plant biology but little has been uncovered in soybeans.

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...

Association mapping of quantitative trait loci for yield-related agronomic traits in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2016
High yield in rice mainly depends on large grain weight, ideal plant architecture and proper flowering time adapting to various geographic regions. To help achieve higher yield, phenotype variations of heading date (HD), plant architecture and grain ...
