Arthropod niche differentiation linked to grazing‐induced sward islets in intensively managed agricultural pasture

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 598-620, May 2026.
In a given number of samples, grassland sward islets contain more species of arthropods than the surrounding sward. When corrected for abundance, there is no difference in species richness, suggesting that the effect of islets might purely be to concentrate arthropods. The community structure differences indicated by non‐metric multidimensional scaling

The Rice Stripe Virus p2 Interacts With Lsm1 and Disrupts the Lsm1‐Lsm4 Complex to Facilitate the Viral infection

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
RSV p2 binds Lsm1, disrupting Lsm1‐Lsm4 association and impairing decapping‐dependent mRNA decay in P‐bodies, leading to the accumulation of unstable mRNAs and enhanced RSV infection. ABSTRACT Processing bodies (P‐bodies) play central roles in RNA metabolism and in the regulation of viral infection.

WRKY Transcription Factors: Integral Regulators of Defence Responses to Biotic Stress in Crops

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 2939-2955, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Crops are continually challenged by biotic stresses, including fungal, bacterial and viral pathogens and insect pests, which cause substantial yield and quality losses worldwide. WRKY transcription factors constitute a plant‐specific and functionally diverse family that is central to immune regulation.

Molecular Photogearing for Controlling Rotary Motion at the Nanoscale

open access: yesChemPlusChem, Volume 91, Issue 4, April 2026.
Molecular gears capable of controlling and transmitting rotary motion at the nanoscale are indispensable for the construction of artificial molecular machines. In this concept, we discuss how molecular photogears featuring a propeller‐shaped motif attached to a light‐driven molecular motor offer new possibilities to perform these tasks with better ...
