Preimaginal development of Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) in brackish water gives rise to adult mosquitoes with thicker cuticles and greater insecticide resistance

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The principal arboviral vector Aedes aegypti can develop in coastal brackish water field habitats (0.5–15 g/L salt) with larvae possessing thicker cuticles and greater resistance to the larvicide Temephos. Females emerging from brackish water‐developing preimaginal stages are now shown to have thicker and remodelled leg and abdominal cuticles and ...

Using plant circadian programs to optimize agrochemical use

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Agrochemicals play an important role in maximizing agricultural yields. One class of agrochemicals is herbicides, which are used for weed control and to kill the top growth of certain crops before harvest. We examine the influence of plant circadian regulation on herbicide effectiveness to exemplify how knowledge of the circadian clock could be

Plant‐derived vesicle‐like nanoparticles in food crops: emerging insights into nutritional biofortification and biomedical applications

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Food crops, as the cornerstone of human nutrition, not only provide essential macronutrients but also encompass a rich spectrum of bioactive compounds that promote health. Of particular significance are underutilized minor crops, which contain unique beneficial components with proven nutraceutical properties. These valuable bioactive components

GmFER1, a soybean ferritin, enhances tolerance to salt stress and root rot disease and improves soybean yield

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary The plant stress response mechanism is activated by biotic and abiotic stresses, but its continuous activation typically affects growth. The role of ferritin in regulating biomass accumulation has been extensively characterized in diverse plant species; however, the underlying mechanisms through which it contributes to salt stress tolerance and
