The Pleiades are a cluster of fungal effectors that inhibit host defenses.
PLoS Pathogens, 2021 Biotrophic plant pathogens secrete effector proteins to manipulate the host physiology. Effectors suppress defenses and induce an environment favorable to disease development.

Pleiades or Not? Resolving the Status of the Lithium Rich M Dwarfs HHJ339 and HHJ430 [PDF]
Astronomical Journal, 2020 Oppenheimer et al. (1997) discovered two M5 dwarfs in the Pleiades with nearly primordial lithium. These stars are not low enough in mass to represent the leading edge of the lithium depletion boundary at Pleiades age (~125 Myr). A possible explanation for the enhanced lithium in these stars is that they are actually not members of the Pleiades but ...

The problem of the Pleiades distance. Constraints from Stromgren photometry of nearby field stars [PDF]
, 2001 The discrepancy between the Pleiades cluster distance based on Hipparcos parallaxes and main sequence fitting is investigated on the basis of Stromgren photometry of F-type stars. Field stars with the same metallicity as the Pleiades have been selected from the m1 index and a technique has been developed to locate the ZAMS of these field stars in color-

A census of the near-by Pisces-Eridanus stellar stream -- Commonalities with and disparities from the Pleiades [PDF]
A&A 638, A9 (2020), 2020 Within a 400~pc sphere around the Sun, we search for members of the Pisces-Eridanus (Psc-Eri) stellar stream in the Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2) data set. We compare basic astrophysical characteristics of the stream with those of the Pleiades. We used a modified convergent-point method to identify stars with 2D - velocities consistent with the space ...

Observations of the core of the Pleiades with the Chandra X-ray Observatory [PDF]
, 2000 We present results from a 36-ksec observation of the core of the Pleiades open cluster using ACIS-I on the Chandra X-ray Observatory. We have detected 57 sources, most of which do not have previously known optical counterparts. Follow-up photometry indicates that many of the detections are likely to be AGNs, in accordance with extragalactic source ...

TESTING DIFFERENT VALUES OF SEGMENTATION SCALE PARAMETER IN THE FUNCTION OF DETECTION OF ILLEGAL WASTE LANDFILLS [PDF]
Geodetski Glasnik, 2021 Illegal waste landfills are a current problem facing a large number of countries. In order to control and better manage illegal landfills, it is necessary to know the updated locations and contents of illegal landfills. Remote sensing methods have proven

Unresolved Binaries in the Intermediate Mass Range in the Pleiades Star Cluster [PDF]
Astronomical Journal, 2022 The identification of binary stars of different mass ratios in resolved stellar populations is a challenging task. We show how the photometric diagram constructed with the pseudocolors (H-W2)-W1 versus W2-(BP-K) can be employed to estimate the binary and

Starspots and Magnetism: Testing the Activity Paradigm in the Pleiades and M67 [PDF]
, 2022 We measure starspot filling fractions for 240 stars in the Pleiades and M67 open star clusters using APOGEE high-resolution H-band spectra. For this work we developed a modified spectroscopic pipeline which solves for starspot filling fraction and ...
