Equipped for success: genomes and metabolomes of the European Amanita muscaria are conserved in its novel South African range

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1863-1883, May 2026.
Summary Plants and soils have been moved around the world for centuries, but invasive mushrooms receive scant attention. The Amanita muscaria species complex was introduced to South Africa in the context of forestry, but its origins, ecology and recent evolution are unstudied. We sequenced the genomes of 24 Northern and Southern Hemisphere A. muscaria,

Pinus nigra and Pinus brutia Extracts Inhibit Quorum Sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 with Minimal Impact on Fibroblast Cell Viability and Calcium Deposition

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Extracts of Pinus nigra and Pinus brutia inhibit quorum sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 by reducing pyocyanin and elastase production. This effect is associated with the downregulation of QS‐related genes, including lasR, lasI, rhlI, and rhlR. Additionally, the extracts exhibit minimal, dose‐ and time‐dependent effects on the metabolic activity ...

Indoleacetic Acid in Cambial Tissue of Radiata Pine [PDF]

Australian Journal of Biological Sciences, 1967
The major growth substance detected by mesocotyl bioassay in extracts from cambial tissue of mature radiata pine (Pinus radiata D. Don) was identified as indoleacetic acid by movement on chromatograms and electrophoretograms, by Salkowski test, and by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. Indoleacetic acid concentration increased in the top stem in

Unravelling the spatial and temporal variability of natural disturbances in European forests

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
The heterogeneity of natural disturbance patterns and high temporal variability across European Forest suggest the need of adopting context‐dependent management strategies tailored to both the dominant disturbance agent and local environmental conditions, particularly in the most vulnerable regions, such as the Iberian Peninsula—with large and frequent

Weathering characteristics of Australian grown radiata pine

, 1986
Using scanning electron microscopy, the effect of natural weathering on the micro-structure of radiata pine was investigated. The study suggested that under the weather conditions prevailing in Canberra, Australia at the time, deterioration of the ...

Mycochemical Diversity and Therapeutic Potential of Hymenochaetoid Fungi from Central Asia: Regional and Global Perspectives

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Central Asia harbors a rich yet understudied assemblage of wood‐inhabiting Hymenochaetoid fungi. This review delivers the first comprehensive synthesis of 43 poroid species representing 18 genera documented across montane forests, steppes, and xeric habitats.

Geographic isolation of Diplodia scrobiculata and its association with native Pinus radiata

, 2004
Diplodia pinea (syn. Sphaeropsis sapinea) is a well-known latent pathogen of Pinus spp. with a worldwide distribution. As such, this fungus is native where pines are endemic in the northern hemisphere and it has been introduced into all countries of the ...

Are Tetrapleura tetraptera Phytochemicals Druggable Against SARS‐CoV‐2 Papain‐Like Protein? A Computational Approach

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
SARS‐CoV2 Omicron and its substrains are still a critical global health issue and extremely contagious, even with widespread vaccination efforts. Hospitalizations and mortality rates linked to these variants are still prevalent. Current therapeutic options face challenges, including low effectiveness, suboptimal pharmacokinetics, and drug resistance ...
