Fine mapping of cucumber downy mildew resistance loci identifies candidate genes linked to ethylene‐associated stomatal defence

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Downy mildew, caused by Pseudoperonospora cubensis, is one of the most destructive diseases affecting cucumber and remains difficult to manage sustainably through fungicide‐dependent control strategies. Although several resistance loci have been reported, many previously mapped regions remain too broad for efficient marker‐assisted ...

Seasonal Dynamics of Soil Multitrophic Biodiversity, Co‐Occurrence Network and Assembly Mechanisms Under Typical Vegetation Restoration Patterns in Karst Region

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Previous studies often overlooked the dynamic effects of karst vegetation restoration on soil multi‐trophic biodiversity and the underlying community‐assembly mechanisms. To fill this gap, we performed a seasonal comparative analysis of soil biodiversity, co‐occurrence network architecture, and assembly processes across three representative ...

Simulated Trampling Disturbance Alters Biocrust Microbial Communities and Soil Functions: A Container‐Based Mesocosm Experiment

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are crucial components of dryland ecosystems; however, they are highly vulnerable to anthropogenic disturbances, particularly trampling caused by grazing. To evaluate the impacts of trampling on biocrust structure, microbial communities, and soil functions, we conducted a mesocosm‐based simulated disturbance ...

Analysis of Carbohydrates and Glycoconjugates by Matrix‐Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Mass Spectrometry: An Update for 2023–2024

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of MALDI mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well‐established technique and this comprehensive review is the twelfth update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2024.

Fungal‐Assisted Recycling of Carbon‐Fiber‐Reinforced Polymer Waste via Mechanistically Informed Hybrid Pathways

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Fungal‐assisted recycling of carbon‐fibre reinforced polymer waste. ABSTRACT Epoxy‐based carbon‐fiber‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites are increasingly used in high‐performance applications, yet their highly cross‐linked and chemically resistant matrices remain difficult to recycle sustainably.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi enhance plant performance in trace element‐contaminated soils with element‐specific accumulation patterns

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil contamination by toxic trace elements is a growing global challenge that threatens food safety, agricultural productivity, and ecosystem health. We combined results from many experiments worldwide to assess whether beneficial soil fungi can help plants cope with contaminated soils.

An extinction‐emergency metacollection: Maximising future recovery options for Rhodomyrtus psidioides (Myrtaceae), threatened by Myrtle Rust

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
A challenge for wild plant conservation is the rising incidence of plant pathogens that are difficult to interdict, contain and manage. Invasive, fast‐moving, broad‐spectrum pathogens impose societal costs through losses of intrinsically valuable wild biodiversity, ecosystem function, current and potential genetic and biological assets, culturally ...

A historical specimen of False Lingzhi (Ganoderma lucidum) resolves a 245‐year‐old confusion within an important medicinal mushroom group

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional Chinese Medicine has expanded far beyond Asia, with growing markets in North America and Europe for supplements and functional foods. Lingzhi or Reishi (Ganoderma lingzhi), a well‐known medicinal mushroom, is valued for its anti‐inflammatory and anticancer properties.

Floristic condition drives differential response to cultural burns in grassy woodlands for ectomycorrhizal and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cultural burns are a critical Indigenous land management practice with diverse cultural and biodiversity benefits, now being reintroduced by Indigenous communities to Australian grassy woodlands after long post‐colonization suppression. How these burns influence soil fungi, critical partners in plant nutrition, remains poorly understood.

Organic and conventional agricultural management trigger differential arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal responses to water limitation and elevated CO2

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Agriculture faces significant challenges under climate change, including rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations and increasingly frequent water limitation, which threaten food security and ecosystem health. Our study included collaborations with local farmers and highlights how arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, key plant symbionts, respond differently ...
