A case of accidental Ricin poisoning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
A case report of accidental, mild ricin poisoning by ingestion of ten Castor beans by a 70 year old man. The clinical presentation is followed by a discussion about the toxicity of ricin, its use and misuse and the contrast between the toxicity of pure ...

Genomic studies in Linum shed light on the evolution of the distyly supergene and the molecular basis of convergent floral evolution

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Distyly, an example of convergent evolution, is governed by a supergene, the S‐locus, in several species. Recent studies highlight similar genomic architectures of independently evolved S‐loci, but its mode of origin and whether similar regulatory pathways underlie the convergent evolution of distyly remains unclear.

Identification of β‐galactosidases along the secretory pathway of Nicotiana benthamiana that collectively hamper engineering of galactose‐extended glycans on recombinant glycoproteins

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Glycosylation is an important aspect for many biopharmaceuticals, including vaccines against parasitic helminths. Plants, especially Nicotiana benthamiana, have proven to be excellent production hosts for biopharmaceuticals with tailor‐made glycosylation.

Modulating the activity of the APC/C regulator SISAMBA improves the sugar and antioxidant content of tomato fruits

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary The Anaphase‐Promoting Complex/Cyclosome (APC/C) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that plays a crucial role in ubiquitin‐dependent proteolysis of key cell cycle regulators, which is completed by the 26S proteasome. Previously, SAMBA, a plant‐specific regulator of the APC/C, was identified in Arabidopsis as a critical factor controlling organ size ...

Terzyme: a tool for identification and analysis of the plant terpenome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Terpenoid hydrocarbons represent the largest and most ancient group of phytochemicals, such that the entire chemical library of a plant is often referred to as its 'terpenome'.

Transstadial Transmission and Replication Kinetics of West Nile Virus Lineage 1 in Laboratory Reared Ixodes ricinus Ticks

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
West Nile virus (WNV) is a mosquito-borne agent that has also been isolated from several tick species. Vector competence of Ixodes ricinus, one of the most common tick species in Europe, has been poorly investigated for WNV to date.

Potentials of castor seed meal (Ricinus communis L.) as feed ingredient for Oreochromis niloticus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The potentials of castor seed (Ricinus communis) meal as feed ingredient for Oreochromis niloticus was determined by using boiled seeds to prepare five diets which were fed to the fish species.

Telomere‐to‐telomere genome assembly of linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) for functional genomics and accelerated genetic improvement

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.), a member of the Linaceae family, is a versatile crop valued for its oil, fibre, nutritional and medicinal applications. Recognized as a superfood, linseed is rich in omega‐3 fatty acid (~55%), lignans, high‐quality proteins, dietary fibre and bioactive secondary metabolites.
