Protein import into bacterial endosymbionts and evolving organelles

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The acquisition of bacterial endosymbionts by ancient host cells followed by massive adaptation of the partners gave rise to mitochondria and plastids. Today, various systems with younger and less integrated endosymbionts provide insights into the initial steps in the endosymbiont to organelle transition.

d‐amino acids: new functional insights

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This review explores recent advances in understanding d‐amino acids (d‐AAs) and their pivotal roles across organisms, from plants to humans. d‐AAs have been implicated in key physiological processes, including cancer, inflammation, immune regulation, kidney disease, diabetes, and nervous system function.

Haplotype mining panel for genetic dissection and breeding in Eucalyptus

The Plant Journal, Volume 113, Issue 1, Page 174-185, January 2023., 2023
SUMMARY To improve our understanding of genetic mechanisms underlying complex traits in plants, a comprehensive analysis of gene variants is required. Eucalyptus is an important forest plantation genus that is highly outbred. Trait dissection and molecular breeding in eucalypts currently relies on biallelic single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers.

Cryo‐SEM and large volume FIB‐SEM of Arabidopsis cotyledons: Degradation of lipid bodies, biogenesis of glyoxysomes and reorganisation of organelles during germination

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Until recently, the lack of three‐dimensional visualisation of whole cells at the electron microscopic (EM) level has led to a significant gap in our understanding of the interaction of cellular organelles and their interconnection. This is particularly true with regard to the role of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Applications of environmental DNA monitoring for seaweed reproductive phenology: A case study with giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring the seasonal reproductive cycles of seaweeds is crucial for effective population and ecosystem management, as well as mariculture seedstock collection. Traditional methods, such as visual monitoring by SCUBA diving or snorkeling, are costly, labor‐intensive, and limited in temporal and spatial coverage.

Remodeling of the terpenoid metabolism during prolonged phosphate depletion in the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Terpenoids are a diverse class of naturally occurring organic compounds, which derive from five‐carbon isoprene units and play crucial roles in physiology, ecological interactions such as defense mechanisms, or adaptation to environmental stresses.

Phylogenetics and reticulation among koelerioid clades, part I: Contraction of Trisetum, expansion of Acrospelion, Graphephorum, and Tzveleviochloa; Graciliotrisetum gen. nov. and resurrection of Aegialina (Poaceae, Pooideae, Poeae, Aveninae)

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Phylogenetic relationships within Koeleriinae clades A and B are examined using DNA sequences of plastid rpl32‐trnL, rps16‐trnK, rps16 intron, and ITS regions. Phylogenetic analyses of different selected data sets yielded mostly congruent topologies in nuclear and plastid trees.

Elevated CO2 alters soybean physiology and defense responses, and has disparate effects on susceptibility to diverse microbial pathogens

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Increasing atmospheric CO2 levels have a variety of effects that can influence plant responses to microbial pathogens. However, these responses are varied, and it is challenging to predict how elevated CO2 (eCO2) will affect a particular plant–pathogen interaction.

Ecological speciation with gene flow followed initial large‐scale geographic speciation in the enigmatic afroalpine giant senecios (Dendrosenecio)

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Mountains have highly heterogeneous environments that generate ample opportunities for lineage differentiation through ecological adaptation, geographic isolation and secondary contact. The geographic and ecological isolation of the afroalpine vegetation fragments on the East African mountain tops makes them an excellent system to study ...

Circadian regulation of key physiological processes by the RITMO1 clock protein in the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Phasing biological and physiological processes to periodic light–dark cycles is crucial for the life of most organisms. Marine diatoms, as many phytoplanktonic species, exhibit biological rhythms, yet their molecular timekeepers remain largely uncharacterized.
