Storage treatment and diluent cause inconsistencies in commonly used fluorometric microplate enzyme assays conducted with saltmarsh soils

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Fluorometric enzyme assays are a tool for determining potential enzyme activity in soils. A wide array of methodological approaches is adopted by different studies, making comparisons difficult. An important consideration is whether assay conditions replicate the environment of the samples or optimize potential enzyme activity.

Applications of nanocarrier‐delivered RNA interference in agricultural biological control (2009–2025)

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Despite 17 years of development, the effectiveness of nanocarrier‐delivered RNAi pesticide (NDRP) for agricultural biological control remains limited. The successful development of effective NDRP development requires the coordinated optimization of target gene selection and nanocarrier properties, including RNA dosage, multi‐gene targeting, protection ...

M genes as a new frontier in plant protection

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Microbiome genes, or M genes, are host genes involved in shaping microbial communities. In plant protection, microbiome engineering via M genes shows great promise for the development of new production strategies in the face of increasing pathogen pressure.

Bt Cry2A pesticidal proteins—A case study for the development of future insecticidal proteins?

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Abstract This commentary highlights recent advances in engineering Cry2A proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) for improved insecticidal activity. Through metagenomic discovery, domain‐swapping, and ancestral sequence reconstruction, key determinants of host specificity have been identified.
