Advances in gene cloning and functional genomics approaches for wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) improvement

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a globally important cereal crop which provides ∼20% calories in human diet. Identifying genes and elucidating their functions is still challenging in wheat due to its large genome (∼16 Gb) with significant amount of repetitive elements.

A Modular Design of a Cholera Toxin B Subunit‐Scaffolded Sub‐Virion Nanoparticle Vaccine Against West Nile Virus

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
A recombinant West Nile virus (WNV) subunit vaccine was developed by displaying ED3 on a CTB scaffold. The fusion protein formed soluble nanoparticles in E. coli, eliciting strong, balanced, and specific neutralizing antibodies without cross‐reactivity, offering a safe, scalable subunit vaccine platform.

Inherent properties not conserved in other tenuiviruses increase priming and realignment cycles during transcription of Rice stripe virus

, 2016
Two tenuiviruses Rice stripe virus (RSV) and Rice grassy stunt virus (RGSV) were found to co-infect rice with the same reovirus Rice ragged stunt virus (RRSV).

Spermidine Mitigates Immune Cell Senescence and Boosts Vaccine Responses in Healthy Older Adults—A Pilot Study

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 6, June 2026.
Can we boost vaccine responses in older adults? In a double‐blind, randomised, placebo‐controlled pilot study (n = 40, > 65 years), spermidine supplementation (6 mg/day, 13 weeks) was safe and significantly improved immune responses following a 3rd SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccine dose.

Reduced fecundity associated with Wolbachia infection in a Neotropical drosophilid Redução da fecundidade associada à infecção por Wolbachia em um drosofilídeo Neotropical

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 475-488, June 2026.
Using multiple infected and uninfected Drosophila sturtevanti lines, we investigated (i) the impact of Wolbachia on fecundity and (ii) its effects relative to antibiotic treatment. Based on over 1680 dissected ovaries, fecundity was similar between infected and uninfected flies.

Arbovirus suppression of a lectin protein-mediated broad-spectrum resistance enhances herbivorous vector performance and viral transmission

Nature Communications
Arboviruses often employ various strategies to manipulate the behavior of herbivorous vectors and host plants, thereby enhancing their transmission and infection. In this study, we identify a plant lectin protein, OsChtBL1, which possesses chitin-binding

The HaMYB22–HaGST3.2 module mediates salt stress response in sunflower

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 1709-1726, June 2026.
The transcription factors HaMYB22, HaMYB120, and HaMYB121 cooperatively activate the transcription of the glutathione S‐transferase gene HaGST3.2, thereby facilitating the removal of reactive oxygen species induced by salt stress in sunflowers and improving their salt tolerance.

Quantitative Trait Loci for Resistance to Stripe Disease in Rice (Oryza sativa) [PDF]

, 2007
: In order to map the quantitative trait loci for rice stripe resistance, a molecular linkage map was constructed based on the F2 population derived from a cross between Zhaiyeqing 8 and Wuyujing 3.

Poplar miR1447 Is a Negative Regulator of Disease Resistance Through the SA‐Dependent Pathway

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3616-3633, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Although microRNA1447 (miR1447) regulates poplar responses to abiotic stress and pest infestation, how miR1447 regulates poplar immunity against pathogens and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Here, we revealed that miR1447 functioned as a negative regulator of poplar disease resistance against fungal and bacterial ...
