An intracellular transporter mitigates the CO2‐induced decline in iron content in Arabidopsis shoots
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study identifies a gene encoding a transmembrane protein, MIC, which contributes to the reduction of shoot Fe content observed in plants under elevated CO2. MIC is a putative Fe transporter localized to the Golgi and endosomal compartments. Its post‐translational regulation in roots may represent a potential target for improving plant nutrition ...

Listeria monocytogenes in Fresh Produce: Outbreaks, Prevalence and Contamination Levels
Foods, 2017 Listeria monocytogenes, a member of the genus Listeria, is widely distributed in agricultural environments, such as soil, manure and water. This organism is a recognized foodborne pathogenic bacterium that causes many diseases, from mild gastroenteritis ...

Strategies for the survival of ABC Produce [PDF]
, 2018 Small-scale vegetable shops are facing a scenario of stiff competition, posing threat to their viability and existence. The ongoing trend and customer behaviour have made it apparent to research as to what needs to be done to ensure the survival of the ...

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.

Produce-associated foodborne disease outbreaks, USA, 1998–2013
Epidemiology and Infection, 2018 The US Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) gives food safety regulators increased authority to require implementation of safety measures to reduce the contamination of produce. To evaluate the future impact of FSMA on food safety, a better understanding

Can binary mergers produce maximally spinning black holes?
, 2008 Gravitational waves carry away both energy and angular momentum as binary black holes inspiral and merge. The relative efficiency with which they are radiated determines whether the final black hole of mass $M_f$ and spin $S_f$ saturates the Kerr limit ($
