In-Plant Strategies: Running the Plant Backwards in UAW Region 5 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
[Excerpt]Besides the Boilermakers, few unions have accumulated much experience with in-plant strategies. United Autoworkers Region 5, however, has piled up an impressive record of victories using tactics similar to those described in Tom Balanoff\u27s ...

Pyridine nucleotides induce changes in cytosolic pools of calcium in Arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
NAD is a pyridine nucleotide that is involved in cell metabolism and signaling of plant growth and stress. Recently, we reported on the multifaceted nature of NAD-inducible immunity in Arabidopsis.

Plant Defense and Counter Defense by Viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
RNA silencing is a sequence specific RNA degradation process triggered by the formation of double stranded RNA that can be introduced by a virus or transgene. RNA silencing was first discovered in transgenic plants, where it was termed co-suppression or post transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS).

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Advances in the Involvement of Metals and Metalloids in Plant Defense Response to External Stress

open access: yesPlants
Plants, as sessile organisms, uptake nutrients from the soil. Throughout their whole life cycle, they confront various external biotic and abiotic threats, encompassing harmful element toxicity, pathogen infection, and herbivore attack, posing risks to ...

Biochar-amended potting medium reduces the susceptibility of rice to root-knot nematode infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Biochar is a solid coproduct of biomass pyrolysis, and soil amended with biochar has been shown to enhance the productivity of various crops and induce systemic plant resistance to fungal pathogens.

Plant Defense: Timing Is Everything [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2017
How do plants use scent to attract pollinators while preventing herbivory? New research reveals the genetic basis by which tobacco plants control the temporal emission of volatile attractants from flowers and leaves, enabling attraction of the predators of pests during the day and pollinators at night.

BMI‐1 modulation and trafficking during M phase in diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The schematic illustrates BMI‐1 phosphorylation during M phase, which triggers its translocation from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. In cycling cells, BMI‐1 functions within the PRC1 complex to mediate H2A K119 monoubiquitination. Following PTC596‐induced M phase arrest, phosphorylated BMI‐1 dissociates from PRC1 and is exported to the cytoplasm via its

Salmonella enterica induces and subverts the plant immune system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Infections with Salmonella enterica belong to the most prominent causes of food poisoning and infected fruits and vegetables represent important vectors for salmonellosis. Whereas it was shown that plants raise defense responses against Salmonella, these
